Sounds like you found a very good balance there between enjoying the meal and making good choices 🙂 Good to hear MIL helped by not facing you with a carb-fest! 🙂

She is very good. She wants to be helpful with both slimming world and diabetes control. Given that my father in law was diagnosed type 2 just short of two years ago they are both very on it where that is concerned. I just didn’t want to be a burden and make them eat something they didn’t want to but they were happy to provide something suitable so we all ate the same thing which was nice.
 
Morning all, a 9.1 for me today. I think I've resigned myself to the morning highs as during the day my levels are fairly normal and range between 5 and 9. Plan for today, cut grass!
 
Good morning 4.7, the sun is shining, windows and doors all open, its a good day.🙂 Off to the hospital tomorrow, get results of tongue biopsy.🙄

Well we have couple of HS today. Congratulations @Ljc & @Flower.😎🙂

Enjoy the Algarve @eggyg. 🙂

Nice tea @merrymunky.🙂

Have a great day folks.🙂
 
Good morning folks🙂

Isn’t Diabetes interesting? Went to bed on 9.1, just like the other night. Didn’t do a minor correction like I did before.

Nice straight line overnight, but a drift downwards and woke up on 3.8/4.2. So much for consistency:confused: Guess what, think I need a pump with all the bells and whistles:D

Anyway, had a horrible experience yesterday. Watched Gibraltar v Ireland in the Euro qualifiers. Population of Gibraltar is 34,000. Eire is 4.7m. I’ve seen better games on a Sunday morning between two pub teams. Skill levels were minimal on both teams. Ireland won by a single goal. I reckon it was because the ground was at the foot of the Rock of Gibraltar. Lovely setting, but the Rock is big enough to alter local gravity, not by a lot, just enough to disturb accurate passing. That’s my theory, anyway. 😎

That’s why West Brom play better away. Their home ground is the highest ground above sea level in England. All their non local players can’t get used to the lower gravity. Again, it’s not a lot, microscopic. Just enough to affect the trajectory of a modern football.

Believe all that pseudo science you’ll believe anything:D

Have a great day, everyone, and have a great holiday Eggy. 🙂

Are you testing immediately on waking, or after you have been up and about (even for a few minutes)? There's something called 'Dawn Phenomenon', which causes your levels to start rising as soon as you wake, as your liver gives you a glucose 'boost' to start the day. You can read about it here:
