Group 7-day waking average?

08:47 BS 7.5 🙂 I’m fine with that as I reduced both basal doses by -2 & it’s almost in range & will settle down! Eyes are still a bit puffy yesterday but, can feel the difference on waking today: the inner corners are flatter; they were hard buds before because all the watering had swollen the tear ducts!🙂

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

Sorry! 😳 I woke very hungry so, breakfast to get in the oven & a cuppa tea now while I wait!😛
 
Ooh! My diary on my iOS devices just pinged me to tell me it’s my 20th. Diaversary today! I’d forgotten & I forgot too last year with this pandemic & all of THAT! o_O I’m surprised but, not shocked hence, the stir crazy eyes as opposed to Munch’s Scream!:D

I don’t have anything special in the house from this week’s shopping but, I’ll celebrate that milestone nonetheless & let loose a little bit on some chocolate, Godiva 72%, later after lunch or dinner! 😛:D😉
 
@Lanny glad your eyes are a little better
@eggyg glad Abby and baby (that’s an anagram by the way) is home and settling in. His lovely to have seen her - lovely x
@MeeTooTeeTwo congrats again on the HS, I need that comment in my paste button.
@Gwynn really hope all goes smoothly today x
@Kaylz so glad to hear Bruce is getting his jab. Grandad? Oh dear!!
6.6 for me today. Am disgusted at the NHS pay rise, not for myself but for the Doctor’s and particularly the nurses who deserve a whopping great rise, what a disgrace!
Anyhow still got my pain but not as bad as Wednesday, still in the ‘wait and see’.
Have a good day all x
 
Just knew it, but I still did it, a 7.5 for me today I will
eat cheese and crackers before going to bed ! I just
can't seem to get out of this habit comes from working
nights when night was turned into day with meals, no excuse for it
really as it raises the BG's :(
 
A 5.3 for me this morning at 06:54. It's turned cold again here in West Berks.

My new Pinch of Nom cookbook arrived yesterday so I'll have to go through and decide which recipes I want to try and add them to my list which is ever growing. I did a crust-less chicken and asparagus quiche last night which was very tasty.

Dipped into 14st and single figures this morning at 14st 9.9lbs so another target achieved. 14 and a half stone is the next target.
 
Morning all to a 6.8 before getting out of bed. Re-tested thrice after feeding the cats - 5.7. I'm sticking to my routine of testing 20 minutes after rising. Maybe I sweat sugar in the night?!

What happens if you just eat the cheese and not the crackers?

I've made this one before - just switching out the milk for an almond milk/double cream mix

Chicken & asparagus crustless tart | Jamie Oliver

Chicken and asparagus tart with no crust, similar to a frittata or quiche. This easy recipe is delicious

Hi @Kaylz Very easy recipe. Cut a chicken breast up into chunks and fry off over a medium heat with a finely chopped onion until the chicken has gone white. Then add around 125ml of chicken stock (chicken stock cube dissolved in boiling water) and cook off until the stock has virtually disappeared. This should take around 5 minutes by which time the onions should be soft and the chicken should be cooked through. Chop the asparagus up into around 1 inch pieces and put in a pie dish. Add the chicken and onions. Whisk up six eggs with 2 tablespoons of Quark (low fat cream cheese). Add a good measure of grated cheddar and salt and pepper. Whisk to combine. Pour over the chicken and asparagus and top with some more grated cheddar then bake in a pre-heated oven at 200 (180 fan) for about 25 minutes until the eggs have set and the top is golden brown. It was delicious hot but the wife was working last night so had hers cold latter and loved it. A had a packet of spinach and watercress in the fridge so whisked up some olive oil and sherry vinegar as a dressing but any other vinegar would work as well. Very low carb and very filling

You certainly appear to have the decarbing of standard recipes down to a fine art Adrian!

We're not a dissimilar weight - in old school measurements I'm aiming for about 13 1/2 stone.
 
@ColinUK cheers bookmarked that!

@adrian1der cheers screenshotted that!

With my grandad not being here most nights now we're able to think about trying different things so will give both a try at some point 🙂 xx

Hi @ColinUK That's my target as well. Getting below 13st 12lbs will get my BMI below 25 but I figure that a few more pounds would be best just to be on the safe side

I think it would work really well in the summer as well. Perfect with a glass of Pim's in the garden 🙂

I've not had one of those arrive. Just checked and it seems that you're supposed to have one every two years from the age of 50 up. It used to be 60 but the age group was widened recently it seems.
I'll mention it next time I speak with the GP although being a on a primarily liquid diet won't be fun to collect the sample!
