Yesterday I shared a bottle of wine

It seems the only way I can get to the fives is to have a drink or two.

Not that’s why I drank of course

But makes you think eh ???

Going the wrong way today at 7.0 Had a low carb day yesterday and plenty of walking out in the fresh air (just over 11 miles on fitbit) but sadly not reflected in lowering BS readings. Is fresh air carb loaded????

Hi Everyone i'm a couple of days behind but my b.g on waking was 6.9.mmol/L

 

[Lainie71]

7.7 this morning, my 6s seem a distant memory at the moment. I do feel very run down and have again contact dermatitis flare up on my calf and thigh. Perhaps that's why. The water where I live makes my skin really dry despite having filters on our water system. Just changed them so hopefully better.

 

[debs248]

12.2, retested other hand - 10.8

Likely causes include:

Overdoing it yesterday as daughter home from uni.

Eating more carbs than usual, including sushi which didn't spike BG significantly itself but overall a rather carby day.

Possibly incubating cold which hubby had a few days ago.

Feeling rather run down, was bitten by an insect and eczema has flared up in that area.

Lack of sleep. Went to bed "tired but wired".

Eating v late. Wasn't really hungry but needed food with meds. Put it off for a few hours hoping hunger would kick in but it never did.
