Hang in there. I'm learning to try and keep a positive view even though my readings are through the roof.Morning all. A tragic 13.4 this morning *sigh*
Have a good day
Good data. Glad you are living life as it should be lived. My take on this for you is that having moved into "remission", weight and BG normal for some time, then it will take more than one meal to move the metrics off the scale.FOOD PORN WARNING..
By way of explanation,
I always knew curries in the main for me where ok , however bread & rice SHOULD be a no no.
It was my fear, when we arrived that so much would spike me, I'd be afraid to eat most things.
So I decided I have had 6 months of GOOD control, perhaps I could, just for our holiday, take it a little easier....so I did, ( within reason )
I had eaten this way most days, and was pretty lax testing...
pre meal..yes,
but after..not always so good...
but scores seemed good.
SO last night, took better note.
We Ate at 8.39...(look away now..pics below )
Tested at 7.44..6.4 mmol
Tested at 9.29 .6.3 mmol
Tested at 00:11..*5.6 mmol
*Just back from cocktail bar
FBG this morning 6.5....
So ate carbs. Rice and roti...little effect.
Drank beers and cocktails ..little effect.
Could be a reward for good control eased my restistance.
Or my sugar bowl had emptied and I'm now refilling.
OR our food is SO over processed & stuffed with sugars it should carry a Govt health warning.
Or maybe prof Xavier will come looking for me..lol
Either way, I think for anyone who is travelling..be cautious, but TRY and test the foods..You might be pleasantly surprised.
Food porn.
(Me: Chicken curry on bone, rice, poppadum, roti X 2... delicious.
Her ladyship: Fish Tali , calimari chilli fry, and we had a bottle of *tuborg each.
*hate kingfisher lager .nasty.
Cost £7.93... cheap date or what..lol )

Thank you ziggy_w.Hello all. Very late post today -- early and busy day at work. Fbg was 4.7.
@Lurch2o -- Welcome to thread. Happy you decided to join.
@dogslife -- Congrats on your standing up to your nurse. I sometimes wonder if HCPs would be willing to be held accountable for their advice. Keeping my fingers crossed that your stress (and back) improves, so that you can focus on diet and exercise.
@Bubbsie -- Great posts and absolutely agree on what you said.
@Traceymac23 -- Absolutely wonderful news about the improvement in your infection and your blood sugars.
@Patrick66 and @alf_Josiah -- Good luck on your OPs tomorrow.
@P1ckle -- Great to see your blood sugars coming down.
@DJC3 -- Thanks so much for asking. The meeting with my GP was good, really not too much to talk about as test results were good. He did talk to me about getting a colonoscopy as I have now reached the magic age, not sure whether I am up to it, though. Had lots of tests and doctor's appointments lately and they do stress me out a bit.
Bet Harry will enjoy the experience but - if I am right - Hollywood and Biggleswade is a real stretch.Morning...up super early at 04:30 couldn't get back to sleep...Harry has an early appointment at the dog grooming parlour for 8am....that was on my mind as I went off to sleep last night... Hollywood dogs (yes real name) fitted us in at short notice...an exclusive establishment where he will be having the Star Shine & Sparkle treatment...which does include a deep cleansing hydro massage bath and a blueberry facial...he doesn't know that yet we're keeping it as a surprise (the best way)...so coffee & more coffee to keep me awake...woke to a 5.9

BLUEBERRY FACIAL....on a DOG
Are you a qualified HCF. @Bubbsie ..?
Not Sure you should be extracting the urine like so, if unqualified..
if I die, I'm coming back as your dog.
What a happy life I'd have.
He loved it DJC...of course his wrinkles are an essential part of his appeal...I doubt any amount of blueberry facial would remove even a trace of those...besides he doesn't have that part of the treatment...believe it or not bulldogs have very sensitive skin.I hope Harry enjoys his blueberry facial hope it doesnt get rid of those lovely wrinkles though!
Don't worry Harry was driven to his appointment...he likes nothing better that the front seat of the car...has his own seat belt attachment...if he could reach the pedals with those short legs I'd let him take the carI'm calling the RSPCA LOL
