20/04/18 (1566.187cals)
03:16 woke (BS 6.5) had a little nap.
06:15 Breakfast (BS 7.3) 287.235cals 27.747g carbs 6 units Novorapid.
1 serving chicken sweetcorn soup 120.435cals 10.677g carbs
2 slices toast kingsmill no crusts 50/50 94cals 17g carbs
10g pure butter dromona 72.8cals 0.07g carbs
Set up mini trampoline again, after a year, & tried a few exercises but, was exhausted after 2 minutes.
08:26 (BS 9.7)
11:20 Lunch (BS 7.2) 812.03cals 118.87g carbs
2 slices toast kingsmill no crusts 50/50 94cals 17g carbs
10g pure butter dromona 72.8cals 0.07g carbs
2 boxes 200g micro chips mccains 346cals 52g carbs
1 sausage baked cookstown 78.03cals 9.2g carbs
200g baked beans heinz 158cals 25.6g carbs
150ml cranberry juice ocean spray 63cals 15g carbs
11:55 3 units Novorapid 29 units Levemir & all other meds.
Felt REALLY hungry & didn’t feel stuffed afterwards. Was a little startled when I totted up the figures afterwards!
13:50 (BS 14.9)
Went for a walk, 5500 steps! Haven’t had the energy to walk that far in a long time! My usual daily steps count has been 2500 to 3000: that’s about double that!
15:43 (BS 11.2)
16:44 Dinner (BS 8.4) 321.435cals 28.377g carbs 4 units Novorapid.
1 serving chicken sweetcorn soup 120.435cals 10.677g carbs
37.5g bag of smokey bacon crisps tayto 201cals 17.7g carbs
18:48 (BS 4.3) yikes! Didn’t feel ANYTHING! Had an oatcake & another serving of soup. It must be the exercise!
Correction Snack 145.487cals 12..044g carbs
1 oatcake nairns 36cals 4.35g carbs
0.66 serving chicken sweetcorn soup 79.487cals 7.05g carbs
1tsp no sugar peanut butter sun pat 30cals 0.644g carbs
The last of this batch of soup & it tasted sweeter than usual: struggle to finish! Since it’s the weekend, will lower tomorrow’s dinner dose to 3 as well! Maybe Levemir to 27?
Can’t finish the soup & only managed two thirds of it. Had a tsp peanut butter. Urgh, urgh, urgh!!! Disgustingly sweet!!! But, forced it down for sustained release as Novorapid will be active for another 2 hours! Too bloated & full to finish the soup! The peanut butter is SO horrible!!!
19:46 (BS 6.2) slept.
Energy levels are definitely up today & wanted to exercise but, caused a delayed reaction. Looking back over the entries for today, it was already affecting me before lunch: a BIG lunch! Will have to ask for more advice before doing exercises again!

Good morning. So on Thursday night I fixed a recipe from the Diabetes.org.uk website recipe collection:
Salmon on fennel ratatouille except instead of Salmon, I used 6 all meat apple sausage. (all meat? anyway, lower carbs than ordinary)
It was fabulous. It took us a second cup of coffee after our tea to force us to remain within our portion limits. And we had the second half of the recipe for lunch the next day.
The recipe says it serves 1, but it is 4 portions, easily.
Today: same source. Celeriac Purée
