MMMMMM sounds awesome.... LOL... I am determined to get healthy too... I went to the grocery store and did not come back with any junk food! step one accomplished. Step two... Liking not eating junkfood.... ummmm well.... Good luck to you

All sounds perfectly normal. You can't beat topping up on your saturated fats. Oh dear... I can feel my arteries narrowing as I type

How sad is that?Hmmm.... a woman with a sausage fixation ...... oh sure, that's a rare one. :sneaky:

Well, I had ham for dinner, I had my fat allotment and more................and leftovers tomorrow!

Must be different units over here. My doc threw a wobbler when mine was 6.5. But there was a happy ending when I got down to 4.8

Mind you, I did have to eat an orchards worth of fruit. That changes the way you walk

I think the 6.5 was your sugar level over a 3 month period. That would put you at borderline diabetic. Getting is it down to 4.8 was wonderful! Congratulations!!

The numbers might be different. Mine are high with no meds, it is all genetics......I hardly ever eat meat or eggs or anything high in cholesterol....(except yesterday, for the holiday ham)

The average Cholesterol level in the UK is 5.8 so they must be different. Maybe it's a metric thing. Either way, anything that addresses a warning is good where health is concerned

Wow, the numbers sure are different. Maybe it is a metric thing, I do not know. I just get tired of being poked with a needle every 3 months...............:wah:

Ouuuuuuuch !

Yeah, and no food for 8 hours-I went last week, first day of vacation to do it-I was hungry too by the time I got there. Durn place was closed! I had to do it again the next day!

Have you always been this lucky?

Let's say I learned never to take the Vegas odds on a game...............:wah:

No, that's cholesterol! It HAS to be under 5 to be healthy.

A person with normal blood glucose scores between 4 & 7. Diabetic scores can be up in the 20's. Mine was 15 but I now average about 8. Just CAN'T seem to get it down to 7! Grrr!

So, do you take meds or not? That is really low... a long time ago I heard

you should shoot for 100 plus your age... so I'm a leetle high if you go

by that... but not to worry.



I think my exercise helps me... and a daily bowl of oatmeal. AND picking

the right daddy!!
