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

[dunelm]

Morning all. Happy with 5.5 after a day of puzzling higher numbers yesterday. Did 15 mins exercising with weights before bed, that always seems to help.
@dunelm have a great celebration with your OH and family. More than one set of twins in your group then? How lovely.

Yes, the seem to crop up every now and then a bit like double yolkers.

 

[dunelm]

@dunelm hope your OH has a wonderful birthday enjoy

Thank you, going well so far. Presents and cards opened then everyone down to the pool. Out for a meal tonight and a huge cake that I won’t be having any of when we get back.

Good morning all,
4.2 this morning.

It's a positively balmy 2 celcius (36f) outside. You know it's a slow weather day when the big news on the weather channel is a large chunk of ice falling 40 stories off a condo and damaging a Canada Post truck. Most of the groundhogs (aka woodchucks) didn't see their shadows yesterday and are predicting an early spring (the sole dissenter is one in Nova Scotia, I'd never heard of...there are 3 rival ones in Canada compared to the 1 one American one.)

The weight loss was smaller this week but that's ok..
I lost 1.6 lbs (.7 kg),
I also lost another 1" off my waist, total of 12" lost so far.

Starting weight: 273.59 lbs (123.1 kg)
Current Weight: 187.6 lbs (85.09 kg)

Total loss so far: 85.99 lbs (39 kg) or 6 stone 1.99,
Hoping to get to 100 lbs, next bigger goal.
I'm age 62 & 5'4"

I've read that they skip a generation. Is that still what the books say? I took science courses so long ago.

Are y'all getting any updates in your neck of the woods on the missing BC ranch manager?

Quote for today

I'm glad the party is going well, @dunelm.

On the numbers front:

6.8 FBG this morning after sleeping in.

I was kinda hoping the predicted rain would last all day so I could stay in and not feel restless or guilty but now I see slits of blue sky among the clouds. 12 degrees here, yesterday got nearly 10 degrees warmer than forecast, and I had a really nice walk and then a peaceful sit in the garden. Today I just want to sit indoors and watch Kitten Bowl VI and the First Annual Cat Bowl.

9.2 I’m ok with this
Have a good evening

 

[Chronicle_Cat]

@SaskiaKC There's very little coverage here (other side of the country) and this is the last update.

Goodnight, everyone.

Never mind goodnight, Superbowl to watch - one thing I was always looking forward to when I retired. Now I know Harry Kane is a big Pats fan that changes everything although I always admired Gronk so maybe always a closet Pats fan.

 

[SaskiaKC]

But Harry Kane gets out there and plays on real grass in the rain. These "guys" are playing in what in effect is a huge basketball gym, on plastic turf that looks as pristine in the 2nd quarter as it did in the first. So do their uniforms. They look like little kindergarteners.

This is not football. Sorry, but it just isn't.

And real rams and patriots get muddy.

Those hits are definitely real though and the sheer size of those NFL guys is impressive/frightening.
