Very strange.I'm just getting over having a teary moment after watching an item on the BBC news at lunchtime - someone decided the best way to get rid of their dog was by tying it to a rock by the side of a river where (I think) they thought it would drown.  Thank goodness a couple of dog walkers noticed and saved her.  Absolutely horrible.  My BGs are getting better - last night's bedtime test was 7.2 and this morning's FBG was 7.3 - better than yesterday's 9.1!  Getting there... VERY slowly... but getting there.  I've got my annual blood test for HbA1c and other stuff early next week but I doubt I'll have a low result this time like I have before.  No doubt the DN will try to talk me in using insulin (again) and taking statins (which happens every time and every time I refuse).  That is, of course, if it is a DN or not just the cleaner like it was last time.  (I call her the cleaner because she didn't know anything about diabetes and just kept clicking things off on her computer screen - every time I asked her a question she told me to make an appointment with the doctor <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite16" alt=":banghead:" title="Bang Head    :banghead:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":banghead:" />)Today's food was/will be:B:  Mozzarella chaffle with a heaped teaspoon of almond butterL:  The last of the Christmas dolce gorgonzola with a few cherry tomatoes and cucumber slicesD:  Not 100% sure yet but most likely to be something light like a 2 x egg mayonnaise salad with cress and a few salad veggies.  I'm finding that I'm just not feeling hungry in the evenings.  Drinks:  2 huge mugs of black decaff coffee, diet caffeine free Pepsi with meds, plenty of water and maybe a glass or two of carb free lime tonic.  [USER=52911]@maglil55[/USER] - so how many eggs did you order for your first week of DD?  Not 4 dozen like last time, I hope? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite29" alt=":dead:" title="Dead    :dead:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":dead:" /> I must try to find that old thread - every time I think about it I don't understand why I ordered so much cabbage for just one week - I can't believe I ever thought I would be able to eat it all.  In fact its pretty much put me off (green) cabbage - we only have it if Mr C requests it now (which is rare).  [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER] - do you remember this?? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite67" alt=":wacky:" title="Wacky    :wacky:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":wacky:" /></blockquote>
