Good to read your comment, Ralph. I'm not sure what a mince pie is but I'll bet it's sweet and carby. Yeah, I'm amazed at what cutting a few carbs did for me. I went from the 40-50 grams per day down to 30-35.
I'm away on holiday now, so my challenge will be to not overdo what I eat.
Interesting to read that the Libre flash glucose monitor has its own set of drawbacks. I'd still like to try it. Did you "readng low" sensor straighten out?
