The predicted early start. If past performance could be trusted the 4.8 is about right but then same strips and body gave very odd readings over a week or so. Almost impossible to know what is really going on. Just thankful I don't use insulin and need to calculate dosage. Hope you all have a good day- I'm off to a 6th birthday party where all 4 grandchildren will meet for the first time.

Good morning :)

6.7 today pretty happy

My daughters 18th birthday party tonight so I am going to have to order a truck load of pizzas, no chance of me eating pizza as nothing else on planet earth messes up my bg more but will have to smell it :eek: I wonder what effect licking the inside of the box once rhe pizza has gone would have? Lol

Have a great Saturday guys :)

Good to see your reading is one that makes you happy. Hope the birthday girl has a great time and you avoid pizza temptation. Not a food I like much so no big issue last night when 2 giant ones arrived. Sourdough bread is much more of a temptation.

Drat! Forgot to take my meter upstairs with me last night....which meant I had to go fetch it from the kitchen this morning. That was enough to jump start the liver into action and give me a 6.5.
Not a disaster but was hoping for a hat trick of 5s.

Morning...gave into temptation last night...hot buttered crumpets & a Cadburys Freddo bar...just had to have them...woke to a 6.2...oops.
Winner for that score after those tempting delicious treats! I do miss crumpets.
5.0 for me this morning.
Working today so mainly stuck at my PC although determined to make some time for a walk too
Happy weekend all
