[QUOTE="Debandez, post: 2145593, member: 460354"] Woke at 6am to a 3.9 on my.libre! Then at 8.50am after I had been awake for about 50 mins scanned a 5.1. Libre say my average for last 30 days is 5.1. I'm going to try to get that into something starting with a 4. Personal challenge. Loving the Libre. Today had breakfast out with visitors from Australia. My daughter in laws auntie who has changed her way of eating after listening to things I was saying on my social media. She was on 28 units of insulin twice a day and due to going low carb is now OFF insulin! Her goal is to be off meds completely. She didnt think it was possible before reading about it on my social media. Bitter sweet for me. So sad that people think that meds are for life and nothing can be done but so happy she found a way. She has lost 9kg and looks and feels fantastic. She wants to lose a few more lbs. Her fatty liver is much improved her dr also told her. For breakfast I had 2 rashers of bacon, scrambled eggs, mushrooms and a sausage. The sausage put up my bs slightly so expect it wasnt 97% meat. Which I buy in. You can see in my graph. I have posted yesterdays too. Ham salad for dinner did not hardly move my bs. Lunch time was a choc and nut Aldi bar (5.9g) which I took as my back up plan. I was an all day training course for my business at the Imperial Hotel with lunch included. It was as I suspected, sandwiches and chips! I had coffee, asked for cream and got a big jug full all to myself! It brought back wonderful memories being in this hotel. I booked my mum in for 2 nights for her 70th birthday. The most magnificent hotel you can imagine outside of London. Many years ago. My mum was 74 when she died and that was 13 years ago. She came over from Dublin as a young 20 year old woman. Worked in hospitality all her life, very hard! It didn't pay well. Money was short for my parents, my dad suffered with his mental health and was in and out if work. For holidays they just went back to Dublin to see all her family (9 brother and sisters ). She had never stayed in a hotel! So one night I spent with her there, wining and dining her in the restaurant. And the next night my younger sister took the helm and did the same. Mum loved it. Magical. Memories are made to be treasured. Back to my graphs. 1st October was a very low carb day. Dinner was ham, cabbage, cauli and broccoli with a bit of English mustard. Just sharing in case anyone interested. I'm going to be including some in any talks I give. Hope all good for everyone. Just taking granddaughter out for an Ice cream at McDonald's. Its freezing but it's what she wants! [/QUOTE]
