Before bed. I had a slice of wholemeal bread and butter to keep my levels up.
Water throughout the day.
 
B: Fry up (2 sausages, 2 bacon, 2 eggs, plum tomatoes)
L: Low carb sponge pudding with cream (this was an experiment that worked)
D: Tandoori chicken & salad
Pud: Berry crumbs & jelly (this is the dregs of berry bits left at the bottom of the bag)
 
Morning all. What a lovely weekend! Nearly went and got a barbecue to celebrate the sun! Plenty of walking and garden work done over the weekend for my exercise.

Friday:
B - 50g Tesco Nuts and Seed Muesli (it's alright carb-wise for my, but it tastes quite bland.) and semi-skimmed milk.
L - Salad pot of cucumber, yellow pepper, carrot, bbq chicken pieces and a mini pork pie. Lemon drizzle Fibre 90 bar.
D - Mowed the lawn when I got home for exercise. Gammon with cheese and pinapple, carrot, swede and peas. Strawberries for afters.

Saturday:
B - Muesli... No wait, the milk had gone off so I had a Oats So Simple porridge bar which I keep in for emergencies. No tea :(
L - Out at the garden centre, so I had a warm steak panini with side salad and Sprite Zero. The bread was an utter treat. Long walk around the garden centre to counteract it.
D - Hunters chicken with peas and carrots. 1 Lindor for afters

Sunday
B - Muesli (bought milk. Yaay!) with semi-skimmed milk.
L - Cheese and bacon toastie from Costa, latte, Rhythm 108 chocolate and hazlenut biscuits (https://www.rhythm108.com/pages/ooh-la-la-tea-biscuits - I can have these if I know I'm going to walk around afterwards with very little change to my BG)
D - Ikea meatballs, peas, carrots, and sweetcorn.

My weight has been stubbornly level for the last couple of months, but half a kilo seems to have disappeared so I am pleased.

@Vince_UK Every time I read your posts when I'm tired that mention Hunan Cuisine, I read it as human and get very confused :D

21/05/18
00:06 BS 9.9 woke up after a VERY long sleep! My finger has started to heal & is no longer tender but, definitely have ear infection: felt the throbbing pain through my sleep! :(

04:16 BS 13.8 couldn’t get back to sleep & BS has risen without insulin & an oatcake but, thought I could get some sleep! 8 units Novorapid (+2). Breakfast:- 2 poached eggs, 2 sausages, 100g baked beans & 100ml pressed peach juice.
06:12 BS 8.5.

10:30 BS 7.9 4 units Novorapid 30 units Levemir & all other meds, +1 unit Levemir for the duration of the infection. Lunch:- serving chicken casserole, 0.5 tin pears & 0.5 of the drained juice 100ml.

Dozed off & forgot to test. Ear got really hot so, applied oads of aloe vera gel via cotton bud as that’s antibacterial too but, soothing & cooling at the same time!

17:03 BS 8.5 woke up 4 units Novorapid. Dinner:- serving lamb casserole, 3 steam new baby potatoes 150g & cup chicken brovril ( 1tsp paste in 180ml water).

Slept soon after.

23:34 BS 8.4. Shortly after waking up! Ear feels much better! Only hurts when I press it, to access the degree of inflammation, & applied more tea tree oil, followed by aloe vera gel to cool afterwards!

Don’t feel like eating at the moment so, 6 units Novorapid & an oatcake! Without that yesterday’s dawn phenomenon raised my BS!
