Sending big hugs penguinmum get well soon xHi All. Sorry to whinge but I am so fed up. My sinuses are blocked and head feels like a block of wood. Cant taste anything. Tried a pickle from a jar yesterday, crunch but couldnt taste the vinegar though could feel it grating on my teeth. Last night no appetite for dinner tried a square of 90% so smooth, comforting. Ate or sucked the whole bar. This morning 7.5 and whose fault is that I wonder.
Have a good rest of Sunday. I’m off for a nap.
Salad goes well with steak IMO. Or just tomahtoes. Or mushrooms.
Well doneGood morning all,
I've been fasting and with 3.9, I'm going to eat shortly.
Weight loss this week was another 2.2 lbs (.9 kg),
giving me a total loss of 88.19 lb (40 kg - 6 stone 4.19) so far.

Welcome back @ziggy_w hope next week a good oneHello all. It's been a busy week at work and have been catching up on 15 pages of posts this morning.
Wonderful to see that most of you suffering from the cold seem to be on the mend. Also, it seems that some records with respect to fbgs have been set this week. Congrats.
Fbgs reading for me last week were 4.9, 5.0, 5.3, 4.7, 4.9, 4.8 and 5.0.
Enjoy what remains of the weekend everyone.

hello, yes was a bit scary to have such high numbers.That’s scary
Your not being pathetic at all its great when our sons spoil us i have 2 no daughters and yes it is blooming cold today take careThanks @karen8967 I know I am being pathetic. No 1 son here for the day so have cheered up a bit and he is cooking chicken, brocolli and cauli for our supper. Isnt it bloomin cold today!
You WILL get there sb25hello, yes was a bit scary to have such high numbers.
However, since increasing my insulin at the end of last week, I have managed to get more single figures. Today I even managed a 6.8 before lunch!
Last night I was 7.6 before bed - which has been unheard of since I was diagnosed in November! I had a bit of a panic though as I was concerned I would keep dropping so ate a small amount of chocolate before bed (I didn't fancy my first hypo being alone in a hotel room on the other side of the country). This ended up me waking to 10.6 - which is better than the 13 yesterday.
I'm struggling as every time I get to around 7, I instantly feel sick and shaky. I guess this is because my body isn't used to running at this level and it probably thinks I am 'low'. I need to learn not to panic I need to get used to these levels!
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend
Yes I WILL that's for sure.You WILL get there sb25

The little guy had a great day. Chinese New Year celebrations in Manc were really good and then 6-0 v Chelsea.
I’ll have to catch up with Spurs on MOTD2 later.
Its a horrible feeling but the more you are at them levels the easier it will get ive been through the same myself the trick is not to panic which is a lot easier said than done xxYes I WILL that's for sure.
Could just do without feeling sick and shaky every time I get to 'normal levels' as it is very frustrating! Especially when I can be 17 then drop down to 6 within the space of 2 hours. I think most people in that situation would want to air on the side of caution and have some sugar to stop it dropping dramatically further....
Seeing the consultant on Friday so hoping he can give me some more advice and maybe actually give me a diagnosis....
Goodnight Karen and everyoneGoodnight everyone sleep well
