@scousebird sorry to see your feeling unwell and haven't been able to get away, I hope you feel better soon! 🙂 xx
 
28/04/18
19:01 ((BS 5.9) even lower before bath, hot water lowers BS even further, before going to bed!
Correction Snack 104.54cals 15.55g carbs
1 cinnamon square fibre one 87cals 12g carbs
1 cup tea twinings everyday 0cals 0g carbs
40ml unsweetened almond milk 5.2cals 0g carbs
0.5tsp honey rowse 12.34cals 3.55g carbs
Ran out of almond milk & only had the unsweetened left. Tried it & tea is too bitter so, added some honey.

Revised total 1766.43cals. REALLY annoyed with myself! All those extra calories! But, my instincts about the Levemir proved correct & should have trusted it without the 1 extra unit Novorapid! I live & learn!

Bottled oyster-flavored sauce is a rich, concentrated mixture of oyster extractives, soy sauce, brine and assorted seasonings. The brown sauce is thick, salty, and strong. It is used sparingly to enhance the flavor of many dishes that have a long list of additional wet and aromatic ingredients.

Yes you can buy it in bottles from most supermarkets.

@Heath o, @Amigo, says it all! Blue dragon brand is available at asda. Lee Kum Kee is available at tesco. I use the Lee Kum Kee premium brand, also from tesco, which is less sweet, more concentrated & in a smaller bottle. Some brands can be very sweet & doesn’t have much actual oyster taste! Stored out of the fridge is fine unopened but, opened: needs to be kept in the fridge. Also, don’t be alarmed when reaching the bottom of the bottle, it turns very thin: constant shaking of the bottle to get it out; like constant stirring thins cornflour in soups!
