Ah but expect I do as I've checked 4 hours later to make sure I wasn't out range(although that was potentially my doing rather then the mince pie). But that wasn't the the shame the shame was it being a month to early
 
Just as well nobody decided to bet on my overnight levels because I changed the goal posts at the last minute. Levels were continuing to rise as I headed to bed and just tipped into double figures, so I decided that I needed a bit more insulin. Shot myself another 1.5 units of Fiasp, had half a small apple (approx 7g carbs) and some cheese and went to bed and woke up on a lovely 4.8. That will do nicely 😎.
 
Well that second mince pies(as it was from a coffee shop it needed eateninng I'm going away for a couple of days tomorrow). Has just been plolised off. No idea what I was on before hand as had u had just finished lunch I didn't feel the need to test and just covered the extra carbs) I am officially a hypocrite

Expect I didn't intaniry buy them you don't know what your going to get in a room good to go bag.
 
A 7.2 for me this evening. My favourite shepherds pie coming up in ten minutes.
 
8.6(but ended up in playing rushing) out a bit(that and don't think my evening ratio knows what it is at moment). Think I'm going to reduce it back tomorrow (,epasilly as I'll be traveling and going to a concert) so have dip down to 4.6(so had a couple of jelly babbies to stop it diping Futher. As it's not been not long since eating I'm aware that the carbs my hit me aether words
 
6.9 for me.
I had lasagne for lunch and I am still full from it. It was low carb because made with zero carb konjac lasagne sheets - but I used a whole can of tomatoes to make the bolognese sauce and a whole onion. I used oat fibre and xanthan gum to thicken the Bechamel sauce so no carbs there. But lots of protein in the beef and cheese. Non diabetic husband couldn't tell it wasn't durum wheat pasta - and wouldn't have known except I had to encourage him to drink plenty while eating because otherwise konjac can bung you up.
It was yum though. I probably won't have anything else to eat today - just have cups of tea and water to drink.

6 this evening following a good lunch, have decided to have my main meal in the middle of the day, when possible, as I'm not moving as much on an evening now we are into the dark nights. will see what happens in the next week. Hope everyone has had a good day 🙂
 
Didn't do pre-tea today as I did pre and post lunch. The post was only 5.7 though which I was quite happy about, though to be fair it was only 24g of carbohydrates and balanced with 39g total of fat and protein 😉. Kids predictably didn't want the same meal as each other, and I'm a little short of most of the foods youngest prefers (need to do a proper shop tomorrow, maybe sort the freezer again first) so I ended up making them separate meals, neither was onerous on their own (and nor was my reheated broccoli cheese with a few slices of fried chorizo) but it all adds up to more time
 
A tidy 5.1 for me pre-dinner tonight.....
 
6.9 pre-dinner and 7.3 afterwards today.
I haven't been exercising lately because the downstairs is bunged up with boxes and stuff as I try and re-organise the house and sort stuff out for giving to charity and to go into the attic. I haven't been sleeping well either. My husband is coming off his pain medication - he does that once a year to give his liver a rest and to prove to himself that he is in control of it and not getting addicted - but that means he is waking in the night from the pain and we were up at three in the morning and I know too many nights of bad sleep make me have higher numbers than I'd like.

I made chicken and chips for my tea tonight. Celeriac chips and cooked chicken strips tossed in pea protein powder- so around 6 - 8 g of carbs in the whole meal. Quick and easy.

Didn't have have a chance to post yesterday but it was 6.3.
 
Didn't really have any evening meal as such, just a tub of feta stuffed peppadew peppers at 4pm when I was 4.2.
 
Not had my tea yet but just had too mini brownie type things and was 8.4 before eating them.
 
5.5 This evening, just going to make some tea, had lunch out with my daughter today, now sat watching Saturday night tv after cutting grass this afternoon.
Hope everyone's had a good day
 
Didn’t test before tea as I was 4.8 after swimming and wasn’t going to correct with tea whatever my bg was, because of the swimming.
 
And mine tonight pre-dinner was 7.1 a tad higher than usual - but not much.
 
I got 5.2 pre-tea. Had an actual sandwich with my soup, and still only 7.6 about 2 hours later so I'm pretty chuffed all round tonight
