Six is the minimum number of buttons humanly possible to eat @Bubbsie you should be proud of your heroic restraint, full bag for me everytime.

Thanks Trick...I'm so relieved you said that...didn't get home from work until 11:30pm last night...tired & grumpy so had another six … yum;)
 
Morning...home from work at 11:30pm last night...a really scrappy evening...had to eat when I got home...around 01:30 as I clambered off to bed I passed the chocolate buttons...well I wish I had passed them another six eaten I'm afraid...woke to a 5.7...phew lucky or what?

You may well pass the chocolate buttons later:angelic:
 
Morning all. Down to 7.3 today. Still too high but moving in the right direction. A lovely bright and dry start to the day here in the Midlands. Have a good Tuesday everyone. :)

My favourite hypo treatment while I'm out and about are fruit pastilles @ianpspurs . I always carry a little tub of them even if I'm just walking to the shop. 2 will treat a hypo nicely but not my greed. I used to carry a packet of dextrose tablets but I kept having to throw them away because the wrapping became worn and broke.

You can get them in plastic tubes but not as nice as fruit pastilles or jelly baby's
 
Good morning all, 5 today. Might have more to do with me taking my meds at 4:30 when i woke briefly than any real effort on my part, but ill take it.
Got to give a presentation tonight on the topic of iphone photography to the ladies of the ICA ( like WI ). So a couple of hours on the computer to put something together.
Hello to the new people @Tom109 @123Kiwi and some others that have popped in.
@Ziggy2017 and @Jodie Louise , hugs, hope for relief.
Take care all, have a good day.
 
6.0 again. It could be worse but I like to be in the 5s. I think I'm 6s of late due to eating more. Yesterday i had supper. 1 thins cracker and lots of cheese and nuts with a glass of red. Too late in the day but i knew i hadnt eaten enough to maintain my weight during the day so needs must. Trying to maintain my weight has been my biggest challenge on my journey so far. Don't want to lose more. Happy where I am. My diabetic nurse won't recognise me on Friday. 4 stone loss (bar 2lb). So looking forward to my Appointment. Anyway my plan worked. 1lb heavier today. And supper was delicious!

Have a good day everyone.
 
good morning all :)

4.7 today

slept in this morning which is not like me, I'm usually up and about fairly early :)
Didn't get my strimming done yesterday because we had a bout of heavy rain, never mind we may go out and about shortly and have lunch out ;)

@ianpspurs log stacking is a satisfying activity isn't it :)

Have a good day all :)
 
7.2 this morning, rather pleased with that too! Have to go and do some work on our old outhouse, new freezer going in there next week so I can stash veg from the garden in it. We had to give so much away this year! Anyone know anything about growing veg using grow lights? Hope everyone is having a good day.
 
Good morning all,

3.9 this morning. I'm a diet only Type 2 and this is due to fasting , I finished my fast after seeing this number.

Got some good news on the scale.
I lost 3.6 lbs (1.63 kg) this week.
Starting weight was 273.59 lbs (124.10),
I'm now 215.0 lbs (97.52 kig)
total loss so far: 58.59 lbs (26.58 kg) 4 stone, 2.59

This is the lowest weight I've been in many years (almost 30 years)
