Hi @Diabeticliberty,

Yes -- I feel extremely fortunate and bringing out my summer wardrobe for today.

How are you this morning? Sounds as if you had a rough time last night.

If the temperature here gets above 6 degrees then I have a spandex mankini in the back of pick up truck. This afternoon could see me strutting my thang baby

Last night was a little bit torrid but it was oversleeping this morning that really knocked the wind out of my proverbial sails, and you are all painfully aware of just how windy I am. Still onward and upward and all that malarkey
 
@Diabeticliberty Yes,lovely bread.One of the joys of being retired is having time for these things.When we both worked life was far too stressful for home baked bread.His latest purchase (and new toy) is a bread machine........trouble is the smell of baking bread is always very tempting.Id post you a parcel but it wouldn't be the same without that fresh smell!!!My contribution is making the low carb crackers we both like, and I can eat without a guilty conscience!
 
No idea I've been so bad lately tht I've put on all the weigh I'd lost from being undiagnosed so it's probably thru the roof
time to get my butt in gear
Hi Lisa having struggled to lose 3 stone since changing to insulin I’ve managed to put on 2.5 stone agIn I’m incredibly frustrated but never give in. Talking to my gp I wouldn’t have minded putting the weight on if I’d gone on a 3 month all inclusive . I keep trying trying to balance low Bg and losing weight
 
It very frustrating and I did give up for a few weeks but I'm gonna try n get on track again.

Hey we all slip, me more than the rest of you put together. My whole life is one slip after another. In your own case you have lost it once and can of course lose it again
 
Hi @Bubbsie they are a lovely dog wouldn't be without them but they do take some looking after it's the folds and flat face with breathing problems,we have to be careful when we have sunny days winter included they cannot go for long walks and even short ones when it's warm are out of the question,they suit me Has I don't do much long walking anymore but if you like walking with your dog don't get a pug has cute and lovely Has they are!K
A bit of good information my vet gave me before we bought Louie look for big wide nostrils,straight legs we did and Louie is much better than Elle she has terrible breathing problems but we rescued her, we have had rescued dogs for 37 years boxer yorkies now a pug we loved them all!K
 
Caught mine at 3.5 mr d so wasnt to bad swig of luco and a couple of digeztives at silly oclock but still got headache finishing work at 2 so not to bad
 
Harry can be walked for miles in the Autumn & Winter...although does suffer in the summer...he's very fit for a bulldog...not too much fat on him,...good solid boy...despite all their problems...have such a soft spot for pugs...Pekinese & bulldogs...they have such great characters.
 
Pugs are like Harry autumn winter they love a walk I used to take Louie on my 2hour walks when he was younger. But a few years back he collapsed when I was out with him frightened me to death so now it's short walks and only when it's cool early mornings and evenings.
 
Well done Mr.
 
4.7 this morning. And one piece of good news. Mum who had a HBAC1 last year of 48, has now been rechecked. After a stone weight loss and a year later, she is now at 43. Result! And all from a change in diet (i.e. no cakes to eat in the house). Well done mum!
 
BG of 7.3 at 2am. Am up early since I have a long drive up to Tain in Scottish Highland. Have looked at traffic webcams and we have heavy snow falling as i write this. Should be fun. Thank goodness i have heated seats in my Honda CRZ. At least the important parts of me wont be freezing. Have a good day people
 
Take care in that snow...not one of my favourite things for driving...had heated seats in my Saab (loved that car)...the first time I used them...the ex's 'important parts' got warm very quickly...for a brief moment he was worried he'd peed himself.
