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

I think you need an degree in IT to work out how to select the stored albums and radio stations. What a fun morning!.
I can empathise Krystyna I gave up reading my cars manual/handbook...it was akin to one of my last essays on Plato's Cave...no on reflection I'd say Plato was the easier option...you'll get there...with me nowadays it's more trial & error.
 
I use the Accuchek Fastclix pen instead of individual lancets. You insert a cartridge of 6 “lancets” and can adjust the comfort pressure of the stab from 1-5. I reuse each “lancet many times so its not that pricey. Take a look might be a good option for a musician.. also try to stab on the sides of fingers rather than the pads! Best wishes.
 

Congratulations!
 
6.5 this morning. Up before the sun despite the KittenCat's letting me sleep in. I feel strangely good this morning.
Morning @SaskiaKC .
I'm still on cat patrol.
Update on weather in Croydon
Very dull.

And so is the weather..lol


I was uptown the other day, and took a few shots I thought you might like
Old London.. with a hint of new..lol


 
Thanks PM but that is the device I also use and I stab the sides, providing blood flows if not I resort to tips. I don't actually have pain when stabbing it can be hours later when trying to hold down the strings on my instruments, just like the nerves have become sensitive through all the stabbing.
 
My day of creativity never happened. Mrs MC decided she was fed up of seeing me like a scarecrow in baggy clothes and so off we went to shop. She was right my waist has shrunk from a 38 to a 32 since April the problem is weight is still dropping and I really can't increase my protein any more, I am not that keen on lots of meat and fed up of fish, fish ,fish.
The only available place to have lunch was M&S which had absolutely nothing available that was not Heavily Carb based and had run out of soup so Mrs MC had a very appertising lunch whilst I drank a black coffee, non of which is helping my weight.
Still I have cooked an Aubergine bake with lots of Full fat Cottage Cheese and Yogurt for tea to cheer me up.
 
Hug for lack of food but big whoop of joy for weight loss and dropping that weight.

@gennepher there is so much in your amazing journey to be proud of besides the driving but that is certainly a success of which to be proud. Hope the implant is sorted and you have the amazing time with your daughter you deserve.
Thank you very much @ianpspurs

It was a very long morning, but it got sorted finally.

Thank you again. I am looking forward to tomorrow!
