My flatfish doesn't seem to have stirred overnight.....

Hard to when your sugars are all over the place and you have to keep making adjustments but having to wait 3 days between adjustments to see if more needs changing though :( x

Good morning 5 8 and in Netherlands today, and apart from catching up with emails this morning I am having a much needed day off. My youngest daughter is performing at her circus University, she will be juggling with her feet whilst telling a story and doing acrobatics. No idea where she gets this talent from, love watching her.
I hope you all have a good day.

I feel for you, so hard to wait to see if adjustments are enough. You are doing so well and your confidence is just getting higher and higher. What is happening with your sugars?

@Mark Parrott Just had another thought Mark.
You could set up a business making and selling low carb food or advising current bakeries how they could tap into a market that needs genuine home cooked low carb foods.
Wonder what the investment would be.
There has to be a niche market I would think.

I have considered this. There are a few issues that would need sorting. Firstly, the baked goods need to look good. Mine don't tend to look like they do in the pictures. Also, they have quite a short shelf life. They would have to be sold freshly baked as low carb stuff doesn't keep well unless stored in the fridge. And the ingredients aren't cheap, so I would need to charge a premium for the products. I need to do some research.🙂

@Mark Parrott They in themsleves Mark are problems that could be overcome. Do they freeze? Could be sold frozen, Home cooked is not supposed to look perfect.If you go to any country fair or market you see home baked produce that doesn't look perfect but that in itself adds to it's appeal, home baked. Price, specialised foods always attract a premium and what people are getting is genuine and artisan, Low Carb food. Customer Base. Start low and you will have a customers base on here for sure with people like me who cannot boil and egg without burning it.

5.6 for me today. Came down smoothly from an overtreated-possible-impending-hypo-at-bedtime which led to an 11.0 between midnight and 1am 🙄

Good morning NJ good to hear you arrived there safely ~ and good to see you're keeping your levels in good range whilst away ~ hope you haven't had any hypo's. You must be very proud of your performing daughter and isn't it lucky that you're both in the same Country at the same time so you can go and watch her circus talents. Enjoy and take care x
