Alf, I never lower my expectations of my students. I still remember the name and image of the 1 girl from 1982 who failed GCE History when I told everyone she could have entered a different course and passed.
 
 
Ok so after a hangover day yesterday and only about 20gr carbs all day
I awoke feelin better and a 5.9 at 08:30 bit up from yesterday’s 5.8 but I’ll settle for that

This is all new to me and took my first readings yesterday and I ended the day at 8.6 and was 8.4 first thing this morning. Is that bad?

Taking readings and asking questions based on that data is always good. You will know from more readings just how good, bad or average those are. Keep posting and asking questions and you will be much more informed and able to judge. Take care!
 
This may sound a bit pretentious but I said earlier Grandson and oldest Son for lunch today so really good - arrival of 2 granddaughters in summer so need to ensure he knows he will still eventually be clan chief. I just realised that he will be the 4th generation male to sleep in this house and 5th generation to grow food on the land. Very proud of that!
Not nobility or anything just very rooted in the terroir and I feel it is important for him to know that.

Edit: Granddad has used all the tools on the kirby and industrial quantities of apple sauce are ready. If the rain holds off Easter egg hunt may be on outside not inside. I really don't understand people who spoil grandchildren! (Would playing hail to the chief be going too far?)

Welcome to the forum @Maximusrant. Your readings are a bit high, you should aim for readings between 4-7 if you are Type 2.
Many of us have found that adopting a low Carbohydrate high Fat (LCHF) approach to eating has lowered our readings.

 
Nice to here your doing much better,take care ! K
