Well done. No matter how grim the hospital food, eating the lot indicates to the medics that you are well enough to be discharged.
Hope the rest of the family, are covid free. Kindest regards to you and dear Judith.

Unfortunately I have not a clue as to my blood sugars as I am at present in the covid ward in the hospital I hope to survive this latest challenge and resume normal service soon.

Aw Man! This is nasty. When I had the first wave of COVID19 that hit the UK in 2020, it went to my lungs. I recovered and so will you.

Hugs, prayers and best wishes @JohnEGreen. Blood sugars and carbs are irrelevant just now. Rest and recover.
 
Hug for the joint pain and allergic reactions. A few on here are basically left with no option but to smile and wave just now. I'm not sure whose signature this comes from but tough times don't last, tough people do. Take care, the world needs all the Pipps it can get.
 
4.6 today. Have a good day everyone. Sending hugs your way john, hope you feel better soon. I dont know how you manage 30 hrs fasting Pipp as i do like my breakfast
 
Go Team D. No known fbg as I use Swipey (Libre) and have a series of scans where they are a no go. I could stab but it ignores "the journey/big picture." @JohnEGreen I hope things are on the mend. @Pipp Carry on testing (lesser known film) but maybe just S and W at the numbers for now? @DEBBIESCOTT I am in awe of your exercise ethic but your body seems to be telling you that COVID has left a big footprint. @ultradad great fbg so you must have this bg control down pat. 6.5 years in, I can't see LC breakfast offering me personally anything good. Not sure what colour Swan that is (David Unwin, all swans are white/N=1)
 
4.7 this morning.

@JohnEGreen, hope you have had a reasonable nights sleep and praying that you will be feeling better soon.

Stay Strong.
C.

Yup, @mojo37 , hope you can conquer this soon.
Out in sympathy with a whopping 8.7 today. Confused, and peeved, but the good(ish) news is that my home test HbA1c came in at 40. Not that either meter or HbA1c can be trusted. All a mystery, still, after 17 years of T2.
A bit more lounging about, with only intermittent bursts of energy today, as my intuition is telling me to take it easy.
 
12.7 this morning. Bloods due on Wednesday!!! I was getting along nicely with fasting PBs of 6 but the last couple of weeks have seen a dramatic rise. It might be down to stress (I am still waiting for a diagnosis for my liver tumours) bUt I have started to record all food and exercise in an attempt to understand what is going on.
