That's not good at all :( know what it's like though as we've lost most of our shops over the years, I remember the good old days with Woolworths, The More Store (not sure if you guys had them in England?) now we're left with the likes of Scotmid, a Co-op and Lidl for fresh food :( xx

20/06/18 Wow! 🙂 In just over a year of constant testing since my hospital stay last May 2017, today’s readings are the best! 😎 Stayed in the even stevens sevens all day apart from one little blip of an eight in the middle! AND I was a little naughty too! 😳

11:08 BS 7.0. 6 units Novorapid 29 units Levemir & all other meds Breakfast:- 1 serving my veg soup & 2 slices bread & butter (kingsmill no crusts 50/50 & 10g pure butter dromona). 13:44 BS 7.2.

15:07 BS 8.8. 4 units Novorapid Lunch:- 1x150g steak & kidney pie asda frozen & bottled water. 17:42 BS 7.6

19:09 BS 7.4. 4 units Novorapid Dinner:- 1x150g chicken & veg pie asda frozen & bottled water. 21:08 BS 7.1.

At one point for 2/3 weeks at the end of 2015, just after mum’s passing, I used to live on Fray Bentos steak & kidney pies! I just loved them & they were the ultimate comfort food, for me! I ate 2 big pies, 475g, a day: 0.5 pie each meal & 4 meals! 😳 I’ve since noticed that they’re now smaller, 425g, pies with more gravy & less meat, from asda customer reviews!

Is it any wonder, looking back now, that my BS went out of control, landing me by referral, back to the hospital team, after 14 years, in Feb. 2016.

I haven’t touched any steak & kidney pies since then. I saw these on offer & got small 150g frozen pies from asda, 31.5g carbs! It was REALLY YUMMY! 😛

4 pies in each box & 2 boxes for £3.50. I got these & chicken & veg pies also, 150g each, 27g carbs. I found these a little salty!

Edited to add:- * Went to bed last night, technically, this morning 00:02 BS 8.8.
