Just remembered that I’ve yet to pick up my iron tablets sitting at the chemist for a week. Could that have impacted on my HbA1c results 22/02/18? Could I have been anaemic then, which contributed to the shingles & the Bell’s palsy around Easter?

06:30 (BS 6.8)

11:00 Lunch eating out guessed (BS 7.9) 378cals 49g carbs 7 units Novorapid +1 unit in case of guessing wrong. Will see what happens?

250ml bottled water
(Took the other half of the sandwich home with me.)

12:20 31 units Levemir & all other meds after getting home.

12:58 (BS 8.8) not a bad guess?

Doubled my steps count today & that tired me out! So, slept around 15:00 & woke past midnight. So, less cals TODAY only because of timing & will post tonight’s diinner, technically TOMORROW’s, the next day! I realise it can look confusing so, I put the date & time on my entries.

Edited to add Oops 😳 unintended bit of “too much info”, which I’ve now removed! Realised you, Vince have probably read it! My apologies! 😳
 
B: Cream cheese pancakes with a berry coulis & squirty cream
L: 2 sausages from deli counter in Morrisons
D: Home made beef & chorizo burger in home made bun with home made veggie chips (ooh, that was soooo good!)
Pud: Rest of rhubarb crumble & squirty cream
 
B. 2 slices wholemeal bread and peanut butter and a large coffee.
L.. 3 Ryvita’s with Brussels pate , an apple and sparkling water.
D . Oh so yummy Lamb shanks, broccoli , 4 tiny halves of roast tatties E7262624-5C69-4C4F-B6EF-46CEDCFA083C.gif, a tiny amount of carrots and Swede as I’m not fond of them and a Coke Zero .
Here’s where I fell down, before bed a peanut butter Kit Kat ended up sliding down my throat into my tum 🙄
Water throughout the day.
 
Feeling lazy today, with other half away couldn't be bothered to cook from scratch so raided the local Coop

B - Porridge with berries and nuts

L - Coop classic prawn layered salad with extra salad leaves and 2 Ryvita

D - Coop Irresistible Chicken and Ham Hock Pie with carrot, cauliflower and broccoli (used to quite like the pie but today it certainly wasn't Irresistible, maybe I am getting used to proper food again !!!)
Melon and grapes

2 Maryland cookies.. Cheese and oatcakes later
