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

Greece is a wonderful land and have great kind people there as well... have so many great memories from Greece from my youth
 
6.5 today, my eczema has totally gone now when I am high in carbs, I don't know if it is the high carbs or more vitamin C from strawberries, or if it is because I for a while took more folic acid supplements.. hmm but happy to have hands that can be used now that I am moving my stuff the next 2 weeks...
 
Great news about the eczema going and best wishes for the impending move.
 
Hi All. Just back home. 6.6 at 0730 which was acceptable after a large cod in batter and a dozen or so chips last night, plus rose wine.
@ianpspurs I am so sorry about the chickens, its almost like they knew the move was soon and they chose not to. Very sad but I hope you will get some more when you move. Enjoy the cricket. @DJC3 great fbg have a great time with @Goonergal. @Pavlos superb photos. @Bildad glad you got some prompt treatment. @trick60 well done on the exam. @Debandez enjoy your celebs with FIL 90 is a spcial one. Hope you entertain everyone on your new keyboard afters. @gennepher dont stress over one small bag of scratchings, it will all come good. @HarrisonK enjoy the garden. @Freema good about the excema relief. @Krystyna23040 interesting findings, you’re in a good place. @SaskiaKC hope you and the KC have a good day despite the storm not showing up to clear the air.
Phew...sorry if I left anyone out. Oh welcome home @karen8967 good fbg. @Bubbsie glad you are getting the captains chair, meant to be!
Enjoy Sunday and the sport. Stay well, stay safe.
 

I'll be interested in hearing what works for you. I was at 6.7 this morning and so far I haven't been able to put my pricked and bloody finger on what's causing these higher numbers. Sigh.
 
I have just ordered a pair of glasses online. $15.95 total, which is muchmuchmuch lower than I have ever paid for anything but over-the-counter non-prescription sunglasses in the long-ago. I will be interested to literally see if these turn out to be the correct prescription!
 

Very pleased to read this Freema, especially with your upcoming move

Four games all in the fifth
Full of admiration for the fighting spirit of the two players under amazing pressure.
True fighters and real champions both of them.
 
good evening all

was 5.1 yesterday and 4.9 this morning.

a cool grey morning followed by a glorious afternoon today
Was feeling a bit fed up the last couple of days , for no real reason at all, funny how that works sometimes isn't it?

I do find that getting overtired makes me prone to 'the mulligrubs' but anyway the sunshine should help
and If the good weather stays I may get the strimmer out and indulge my productive destructive tendencies whilst we wait in for a delivery which is promised for tomorrow

Hope everyone is having a good weekend
 
@ianpspurs @PenguinMum @DJC3 very interesting results with the increased protein.

@ianpspurs I know I can't replicate it at home because 2 days at that level is all I can cope with as a 10lb steak is truly enormous for me plus a huge breakfast. If had our dogs with me they would be truly happy dogs as they would have had a significant portion of it - which is probably why they absolutely love staying at hotels.

Today's protein much lower as I had a small chicken salad for lunch. Am now on the train to Downham Market with a coffee and a square of dark chocolate. My dinner.

@DJC3 the course was really worthwhile - although at the moment my brain does feel as though it has been fried trying to process all the information.
 
hi Krystyna.

Do you not have access to any Cloud storage you could send video to ?
i use google drive, myself...unlimited storage for photos, ...IF you are happy to not have them saved in LARGE format.

If you free up pic space, you may be able to get more videos on phone perhaps..or even save some video to Cloud storage.
GDRIVE
PC Mag Google Photos.
&
FREE CLOUD STORAGE

(tip is that you can open SEVERAL Gmail accounts, krystyna 1 ,krystyna2, krystynaA, krystynaB,etc..each gives you a FREE storage space of 15 GB for EACH Email account.
comes in handy if you just want to reply to any sites, you are not too sure about, without clogging up your original email account with resulting spam, etc )

Most of what i have is only ever looked at on line or on the mobile, so no real loss of quality perceptible to my old eyes, but others may want to print, which may need paid storage of some kind.

Gdrive (and others perhaps) helps keep the phone free and groups the pics in a most sensible fashion.
Faces, peoples, places, things, etc...saves having to tag and rename pics endlessly.
sure the same is true for apple..
Also drop box and others are out there, so worth checking which one might be best suited for your needs.

I remember back in the late '50s or early '60s when by September our flip-flops wore down to almost nothing at the toes (I don't know why the toe-end wore out first) and sometimes the thong came loose because the wear on the sole had worn out the hole. I now have a pair of flip-flops that are at least 5 years old and show almost no wear at all -- which probably says as much about my current lifestyle as about the material of which they're made.
