7.3 today, can only put rise down to a rotten cold and sore throat yesterday and overnight. Grateful thanks to grandchildren we saw a few days ago who love to share and spread the germs and diseases they pick up from nursery school and playgroup. It cannot be proved in a court of law that is the source of infection of course but my money is on them. Was much the same many years ago with our own children who introduced us to a huge variety of symptoms that they picked up at school. What goes around, comes around, bless them.

6.6 this morning after a week on dealing with contact dermatitis again, on my neck. Tried a different shampoo should have known better being a hairdresser! Been using Cetraben which has been working and seem to be on the mend. Was in the 9 and 10s most of the week

No potatoes for me, over 15 years.

Wow! I'm impressed. Its been over 6 years since I have had potato as part of a meal, although I was making fish pie with mash tonight for OH and did try a little taste of the potato on the edge of a spoon to see what i was missing. Gosh it was tasteless! I spat it out. Surprising how our tastes change.

Forgot to test this morning until after I had started eating. Bloods 6.5.

Sitting in the airport lounge in Vancouver waiting for our connecting flight home…our trip to Japan was amazing. Food was awful. Low carb, wheat free is not a thing, they just don’t understand. Everything is breaded and/or covered in sauce. I had so much trouble finding safe food. I don’t eat seafood….so the only possible saving grace didn't work for me. I did have some fabulous Kobe beef..OMG….but I couldn’t afford it every day. I’m so happy to be home as my blood sugar was not well controlled, as much as I tried. Every single thing spiked me…
I think I was 6.5 this morning….and it’s been there for the whole trip (in the morning) sometimes higher.
Now I’m back to buying and cooking my own food..just so much safer.
I have been reading your posts…everyone is doing so well!
