@Kaylz i had almond butter from aldi, it was really nice and lower carb than peanut. I hope your levels pick up.

Yeah almond butter generally is lower carb but far pricier, /i haven't even checked the carbs on Lidl's stuff yet but the lowest almond butter I've had so far is Pip & Nut at 5.9g per 100g but it was smooth stuff and was just like water even stored in the fridge! Meridian crunchy is nice but I can't justify £3.30 when it only lasts 4 days breakfasts, hopefully Lidl's stuff is just as nice lol and thanks, scanned at 9:03 and was 8.8 but hardly surprising after 30g unbolused for carbs in total now waiting on new sensor to start up, only 12 more minutes to wait, I think I'd happily spend the day up here in the 8's as my heads thumping :( xx

It’s a 6 on the nose for me this morning. Not that I took the sample from my nose as that would be so painful! Could you imagine jabbing your nose with the lancing device each time you wanted to test?! lol

So how is everyone?

@KARNAK Ted what smart bulbs do you use? I’ve got Hue ones that I request Alexa to operate. She often ignores me or just point blank misunderstand me of course.

Colin what Alexa are you using? I have Alexa Echo plus and Echo Dot 4th generation, just fit them
into the relevant light fittings and ask Alexa to find new applications all done in less than a minute.
Don`t forget you can also control them on the Alexa app including dimming them, you can also
separate each light into names or numbers so that you can switch each individual light on/off or
separate then into individual rooms through the app, all my bulbs are Philips Hue got two more
arriving today.

If you can`t sort it you can set up another thread or PM me rather than hi-jack this thread, cheers mate.
 
@ColinUK. I am sure the tech is really nifty but your diabetes will benefit from you getting up and using the light switch. 😉 Sitting still too long is not good for any of us.... apart from Ted who can't be trusted to manoeuvre around his own coffee table without crashing into it 😳

Good morning everyone. 5.3 after a small can of Coke in the early hours. All I drank all day yesterday was champagne because it was Mark’s birthday - had to celebrate in lockdown style :D
 
A lie in this morning and a 6.3 at 08:28
 
Morning all,
A 6.0 again...!
Oh dear @Michael12421 a bit low...

Have a blessed Sunday everyone

05:42 BS 6.7 🙂

A very early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! :confused:

One of my rare, I know, short & sweet posts as there’s not much going on! Except that tingles are continuing to abate more & I get longer tingle free periods! 🙂
 
Morning

Is it bedtime yet? Barely slept and was wandering at 2:30, very cold here at the moment too so shivering in bed isn't easy to doze off 🙄

8.8 today
xx
 
5.2 this morning. 🙂

@MeeTooTeeTwo congrats on the HS!

Been awake most of the night for some obscure reason. Quite possibly stress related. Feel like c**p tbh and expected my BG to be sky high this morning so I’m stunned that it’s 5.8.

Getting up and heading out for an early morning walk before working today. And I’m also starving hungry and really craving a baguette, lashings of butter and some really good cheese. A desire I shall have to quash.

Alexa Dots in every room. I tend to open up the hue app and use that rather than argue with Alexa to fine time things but she’s great for the big on off things.
 
Morning All, my Weekly read is 6.3 , hope everyone has a good day
 
Morning all. Another 6 like @Snowwy again. Dry, bright and cold, perfect walking weather. After our full English and ablutions we are going for a long local walk. It’s a walk we love and takes in the last part of the Cumbrian Way and ends up in the city centre. Whilst there we’ll pop into Tesco for some “ bits”. Might as well kill two birds with one stone. PS no birds will actually be hurt during this venture! Have a splendid Sunday. 🙂
