I have those very same genes.Apparently it has been discovered that if you have a certain gene you can drink loads of coffee and the caffeine doesn't affect you. I think I must have that gene and so must my sister. I would have loved your Cafe Sumatra.
Awww ... ! What a sweet picture.
Dennis looks so contented.
Brilliant reading and great that you feel able to post again. Have you beetled off searching for loo roll?4.9 this morning, probably because I didn’t eat after around 2pm. It’s not raining at present so I’d better beetle off and get out there. Have a good day everyone.
@Ryhia understandable to be a little apprehensive around the eye test and annual review. Your numbers are good, methods sound and posts show you are doing all the right things - for you. Lots of information about cholesterol on here including a long and detailed thread by Bulkbiker. And breathe.5.6 today a bit stressed at the moment as I am gearing myself up to my annual eye screening and review tomorrow. This is my subsequent one since diagnosis. Would be surprised if all was not well, but I've just looked at the website to remind myself what to expect and they mention recent blood results, I'm on annual review at my surgery so my next HbA1c is not due until end of July/August so I only have my meter readings which show an average of 5.5 for the last month. I guess I will need to ring up to see if it is worth going. Pretty sure they will have something to say about my high cholesterol readings but tough. Anyone know if I will see a dietician again like I did on my initial screening? Last time it was a script kiddie who couldn't think outside of her narrow Eatwell guidelines, I found her neither use nor ornament. Not looking forward to this. Don't know why I get stressed what can they do to me.....
Yes, I wont tag bulkbiker and jim layey but I have a lot to thank them for, as they encouraged me not get stressed about my cholesterol, when DN was threatening me with the consequences of not going on statins, Never ever had problems with high cholesterol prior to low carb but apparently I am a hyper responder and I was losing weight at the time of the last test.@Ryhia understandable to be a little apprehensive around the eye test and annual review.

Yes, I agree that some black coffees are just too strong or maybe too bitter. Those are the ones that I have to add just one spoon of cream.He’d worn himself out with excitement at the agility dogs I think!
I agree with your coffee comments - you really can discern the different varieties better if you have it black. My daughter drinks it so strong though - if she makes a cafetière first us to share I only have 1/2 cup and top it up with water - maybe she has that gene you mentioned.
Just for you PM...I wasn't able to download your pic of Harry and Charlie but glad they are getting on. I’m sure Lola will catch up soon.
I actually do love having the coffee gene. Would hate to have to restrict my coffees.Good Morning and another number too high 6.2 for me today.
I have those very same genes.
Have to run daughter to school today then the day is mine so off for a Muddy Bike ride. Regarding Labrador dogs, @Krystyna23040 and @ianpspurs It seems only a short time since Moet our Labrador used to do these rides with me, he would run in front of me on the technical single track, knowing not to stop to lift (other word got zapped) his leg or sniff, could easy do 9 miles of the trail Follow the Dog (yes that is what it is called) without stopping and a whole day out exploring Wales on our bikes running to heal, but now he's grown old as does all living things.
Take charge of your days and enjoy.
