@rebrascora £70 odd a week with board and own bills to pay and then food doesn't stretch far at all, 10.9g carbs is fine with me anyway, I don't try to aim that low these days as if I did I know I'd end up back at square 1 with my eating disorder xx
I eat any brand..depends where i'm shopping. Carb wise, i try and keep under 130-150g a day but i'm not upset if i go over as its only occasionally. Its exercise that i need x
@Snowwy is there any word on when your church may resume? Only enquiring as The Salvation Army here was supposed to be resuming on the 6th but because of the outbreak at the chicken factory 30 miles away xx
Hi @Kaylz no the Baptist Union has not made it clear yet although I think it must be getting closer. Some churches have resumed I believe but none that I know of. If you can't sing and can't greet people or mix after coffee, many folk are sticking with on-line. So getting a bit good at Zoom apparently!
Morning all, came home late last night, had a great few days with my daughter and grandchildren though ate too much and all the wrong things, naughty me. Just realised this morning I have left my tablets and my tester down there, I have more tablets here at home which is fine but I will have to gestimate my reading. My figures are normally in the 6s or 7s but today I think I would have an HS haha. Have a good day everyone, supposed to be a bit brighter today x
A day later than everyone else but

Morning all, 6.3 after a restless leg sort of night! Been awake on and off since 3.30, hence the lateness of my entry! Lovely sunny morning but can feel a chill in the air. Will definitely have to iron today, have been putting it off for two days! Yesterday’s excuse was it was so beautiful we had to go for a four hour walk. Can’t think of a one today so I’ll have to suck it up. Might have a wee walk down to Aldi later, need some peppers for the monkfish stew I have planned. Have a great Bank Holiday. 🙂
