What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

@ianpspurs You'll feel better once it's daylight. You've done so well on your journey so treat yourself later to a glass of fizz to celebrate. I believe what you've achieved is sustainable without having to live on water alone and to exercise until you're giddy. I'd like to be in your position as would many others. Now give yourself a shake and have a good day.

Thanks @SueJB . The feel better part is probably at the heart of all this. Currently. the early waking and general mood music gives me the impression I have been sold a pup. The brochure promised health, vitality and unicorn eggs all the way. There was no small print. I think my post was meant to be the small print - there may be times when it doesn't feel right. (I like your posts but I don't like being made to think:angelic:)

Morning all. Thrilled at getting a 4.9 this morning. Last few nights being on my Tod I've eaten earlier . Mind you eating is often if not always, more than fuelling up its often a social gathering / entertainment / essential coming together at the end of a day. Anyhow have a good day all, for those of you in the 9-5 , Mon-Fri club its the end of the week! Have a good one !!

@ianpspurs OK, no thinking for the rest of the day and have a glass of fizz at lunch time to celebrate another day of being alive or perhaps eggs benedict for breakfast with some smoked salmon and a bucks fizz!! Unicorns are unavailable as it's Friday

I don't think I wanted to be quite so Trumpian @Fenn but I feel for you. I never felt remotely cured and refuse to use the term in remission or see where I am as any kind of success. What I was trying (badly) to hint at is that progress may plateau (valley?) and with it concerns about the effectiveness of the current vogue set of interventions. As Hagrid said, "stick to it Harry. That's most important that is" or maybe "I shouldn't have said (posted) that , should I?":banghead:

Can’t beat a good Harry Potter quote!

Thanks. Parts of that suggestion are appealing but where would a man with 9 chickens find eggs? I have arrived at the conclusion that the small print should have made it much clearer that this WOE/lifestyle was not suitable for continuous use.:angelic:
Edit: Continuous should probably be uninterrupted

@ianpspurs go find those eggs probably under one of the 9 and chill the bottle. I'm off to work!

Morning everyone a nice 5.3 for me today looks like it’s going to be raining most of the day so I think I will stay in and watch some movies. Is it too early for Christmas movies?

Nope not too early. Don't know if you have access but Sky have a channel full - I imagine Netflix, Amazon et als have plenty - indulge yourself It's a wonderful world:angelic:
