It is a great feeling and definitely warranted the celebratory dance round the bedroom to the bemusement of my OH and the dogs!

4.8 this morning. Has anyone else noticed that if they eat a decent diet their blood glucose numbers improve? (This is not a question actually looking for answers ... more a 'note to self' thing)
It's cold out there, but I need to head out for my daily constitutional. I am repeating on a loop in my brain 'walking is good for me. Walking is good for me. Even when it's ****** cold out there'

Elbow bump hug @PenguinMum and @Estragon. 
@McHelen @SZB2357 @Widgets @Marianne67 @JohnEGreen @Ryhia and all who refuse to be cowed by unresponsive meters/Swipeys/Larrys. Over familiar device of mine chirruped call it 5.2 for cash guv. More sun poolside then spa time. Maybe not 20 mins @ 100°C in the sauna today.

Today in 2015 after 134 days my fbg was 4.8 - started at 7.1 No idea what it is today but so far 6 years of non D or even pre-D A1cs have followed so I assume I am doing something ok. The point being all you fretting over 1 or even a few higher fbgs don't sweat the small stuff. Easy for me to say? if only you knew.

Very supportive sentiments. And your last comment underlines what you also went through - I guess?
