this morning at 5 AM fbg was 3.6 at 7 AM 3.9 had some porridge for breakfast BG shot up to 6.8 that was ok got rid of the nasty head ache I woke up with but just tested and BG now at 3.7 do not know what is going on.

We have been promised thunder and lightning for several days now but so far no sign of it except for one puny flash far off in the distance.

Yesterday sat on a bench in the park reminded me of a past visit there a couple of years back the bench in the photo is the bench from yesterdays trek Looked a bit different yesterday though.

My God offenders will be queuing out the door at the law courts. Imagine all the different utterances that can cause offence.

Hi John,
It is such a difficult parameter to measure.
How does one measure something so subjective as offence? It may be the one causing offence did it without any intention at all. The offended may be of a snowflake disposition?
Perhaps we should all learn to forgive each other more since we all unintentionally fail in some way every day!
I think the country is going in the wrong direction.
We cannot be constantly wringing our hands for the wrongs of our ancestors 200+ years ago.

D.

I have no idea what that means so can't rate it. Guess it must be funny - can someone explain please?

You wouldn't like it, it's a film ;)
The first film was great but everything after that was pants. The tv series was just awful and I was so angry with the actor that I went out with his girlfriend just to tick him off.

I am relative new to all this, just over a year from diagnosis and others will probably give much better advise. However I have discovered unless I keep my daily carb intake below 30 grm my BG rises and I can only tolerate 20 grm in a meal or the same happens, maybe you need to experiment with even less carbs.

Seem like you are on the case though which is good.

Thanks, I have managed five years on from diagnosis, lost 7 stone 1or 2 more would be nice, but I’ve tried lower carbs but it upsets my other conditions so after several attempts I’m happy with what I do now, I think I’m going to put it down to stress, heat and thunderstorms!
