What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

4.8 this morning. Surprisingly low because I only did just under 6k steps. Could there really be a connection between drinking lots of water and good blood sugar control.

Another puzzle is that my resting heart rate significantly improved as soon as l started drinking more water.

Managed to get a puncture on Saturday. Mr K has just got back from the Tyre place. Luckily it was repairable as it was caused by a really small stone.
 
Yuk - mice in cupboards is truly horrible. I would SCREAM also.
 
I do hope your family recover quickly.
 
Blimey, let’s hope that Jax’s blisters have crusted over to ensure that he is now not contagious. Covid - we had it last month. Luckily it was very mild for us but we do still need to be careful. All the best for your planned trips.
 
There will be a biscuit party going on somewhere. Don’t let the media know! Smashing piece of creative.
 
Oh no - yes, seal up the cupboards.
 
Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen.
My, what a woke unfriendly sentence my mornings greeting sentence is, but in true tradition me, me’s and myself don’t care.
That meter of mine issued a 5.5 this morning.
Most of today me and me’s will be left unsupervised and plans are in place, unspoken about plans, just in case you know who Mrs J has other plans for me and me, to be ignored, not heard etc.
Stay safe all and tongue-in-cheek mice can be kebabed, but will need garlic, mind the bones , but best left to the popeyes of this world.
 
Good morning everyone from an as yet quite sunny morning here in the dark and dangerous north
Lots of lazing about yesterday interspersed with sprinkles of fetching, carrying and moving stuff. Yes, Mrs Miggins decided to sort out the dining room and got the paint pots out. I was attempting to be patriotic, watching programmes about Mrs Queen celebrating 70 years in the job. Not a good start in the 6 Nations, unless you are French of course. Mixed curling going well though - lumps of granite and brooms - imagine the excitement.
Art - another large sheet of rice paper and a bit of pale colour. Hope your day is kind to you. Time for my koffy.

 
Greetings all. Hmm, what did he mean by that? What's he getting at? Swipey still boxed whilst all sorts of rays and waves may fry me or it. Scan appointment for 3,30 today made mid post. Very 21st century problem yesterday and this morning. Family meal yesterday was important and tasted good. COVID wise stupid idea in a town with an infection rate 2x average and a 92 yo MIL present. Food wise IMHO there is quality evidence on both sides to suggest LC (mine was), alcohol (red wine to control any spike as much as possible) and fat from lamb shoulder (red meat in general?) not the good it claims to be for me or the environment (meat from carbon offset source). Maybe it all depends on which Alternative Truth suits you? My day ended by watching a tribute to Christine McVie recorded for me by JKP. I do so love Songbird. Off to the gym at 10.45 with the Bill and Hil anthem uppermost in my mind. Very optimistic for me but I've fallen foul of not considering "but what if things actually work out?" before. . @Granny_grump_ hug for Jax; @Krystyna23040 hug for puncture but winner for Mr K and fbg. @SlimLizzy hug for the mice and extra work. @dunelm and @gennepher thanks for generously sharing your gift.

All the best for Scan the Man
 
Glad it was sorted easily @Krystyna23040
 
I hope they all recover quickly @Granny_grump_
 
I am liking the paintings on these big sheets of paper. It is giving you so much more freedom of brush stroke @dunelm
 
Thanks @ianpspurs
I hope the scan goes well.
 
Maybe drinking lots of water gets rid of sugar through more visits to the bathroom
 

Good luck with scan results.
