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

I know what you mean about needing a break from people. My Norwich venue has offered me a free meal (when they do their monthly community meal). Although really kind of them I need to get out of the venue and go to my favourite pub to totally relax on my own.

That is lovely of them offering a free meal, but we all need a break from the busyness of people around us, at some point during the day to revitalise ourselves @Krystyna23040

Zero carbs is optional but should be dismissed as risky.
It is not.
I would not tell you how to 'low carb', but I won't be persuaded by those whose self interest is to shareholders, stakeholders and the like, and be told like little sheep, while we struggle for our health.


I would be loath not to inform you lot of these pitfalls.
I care.



@ianpspurs you do, what you have to, yes, we are old enough and big enough to disagree..
And I can agree to disagree.
And he friendly about it.

Thank you for the civility and concern of that post. I think we both agree on some fundamental points. I just homed in on the idea that Keto is always zero carb. In the past you have talked of your salads, which sounded wonderful and very nutritious so it seemed to me, possibly erroneously, neither of us eat zero carb. Much as we have both benefited from tailored keto like diets zero carb is optional but not compulsory, low not no. Anyhow, best I stop and desist.

Creative... it was misty yesterday when I first went out. This morning, I did not go out. I was staying in anyway, but it was so foggy. I could not see the bungalow on the other side of the road to me. So this morning's creative is a foggy pastel painting done in iPastel.

Have a good day...

I think the Victoria sponge was so worth it. Just as the cheesecake and biscotti biscuits on Saturday were worth it for me @gennepher

Lovely foggy pastel painting

Yesh, I am aware that zero carb is more of a target than an actual measurement.
There are so many hidden carbs.
It is virtually impossible.
The main issue with keto, is staying there.
And when going keto, is tolerating the carb flu, which I have never felt.
But other than trying not to be obsessive about it, maintaining in or around normal BG levels, is the best advice I have ever received.

6.2 this fasting fursday fun frolic with #8 morning.

Oh, I forgot to add merry Christmas eve, again.

That's all folks!
Have your bestest everest, evening you lot.
 
It feels like Christmas weather that you see on the Christmas channels. Very froggy and very cold now.
Mrs L says very merry berry, cherry chrimbo!
Darts and cricket flicking tonight.
Snow in the hills forecast for the weekend etc.
Bah humbug!
