Just scared myself....😱

Woke up to a 4.6 this morning (7.09am); after a bowl of bran went down to 4.1 (9.33am); checked again at 10.30am - 4.7. 11.30am - 4.6; had an apple and a dried apricot and shot up to a whopping 14.9....😱

then reliased I hadn't washed my hands prior to testing; tested again - 5.4 and just to be doubly sure tested again 5.3...

In those few minutes I gained about 20 extra grey hairs...:D

Going to give testing today a rest......
 
Those are some pretty amazing numbers Amanda - well done for repeating that unlikely test! 🙂 It sounds like your body is now very capable of coping with your diet, keep up the good work!
 
I'm thinking of your poor sore fingers. I dread to think what my numbers are today because we have had a chocolate binge in the office today.

I met the misses today at lunch, she was in town at a doctors appointment...........all the excitement made me come back to the office and eat lunch without injecting...........:(

The frustration when I seen my mid afternoon blood test at 16.3 when all I had was some ryvita and cottage cheese and an apple and pear.......😱
