Hi, Chickies and Glen.

I've had my BGL running a little high some mornings - high for me is FBGL of 7 (US126) although it's been around 6(US108) at bedtime the night before. I think it's the dawn syndrome so will try a snack at bedtime. I make a LF ricotta cream dessert (South Beach) and will give that a try. I'm not too worried about it as the HA1C is the important one. Rosey, I think a protein snack is best or a slow release carb. I must ask my dietician.

Msfez, I'm sewing today too - shortening pants! I hate being short.

Glen, good work going to the Y.

Meowee, do you guys still have snow? I'm considering a bit of an escape trip to a friend's place on the South Shore.

Believe it or not, my favourite bedtime snack is fruit and yogurt. However, lately I've been having toast or a small bowl of cereal as well because I seem to need something a little bit more "carby" than just the fruit and I'm still usually down in the high 3's (60's) in the morning.

We still have snow . . . and more is predicted this weekend. We often get a nasty storm in early April. But who can really tell what's going on this winter.

See you soon, kiddies. Keep smiling.

Hello everybody Just popped in to say Hi! I usually have one of those mock danish things every night. It's an egg, 1 to 2 oz ff cream cheese, 4 packs splenda, chocolate or, vanilla or, peanut butter or whatever flavoring extract i'm in the mood for. Nuke the cream cheese for 28 seconds and add rest of ingredients. Mix it up good with a fork then just put in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time until done. It seems to cook more even with some plastic wrap over it. It's low in calories and has enough protein to keep my blood sugar stable until morning. Most especially...it tastes like you're being naughty! Back to the cargo pants from ****! I finished them and discovered that I'd put one pocket higher that the other...it's probably too early for a cocktail.....

Good Morning, buds . . . I'm definitely not feeling too great this morning. Hopefully I'm not coming down with something really nasty, but only tiome will tell, I guess.

Anyway, gang, hang in there. I'll see you tomorrow and, hopefully, I'll be feeling a bunch better.

Hello Everybody! Just peeking in. Sorry to hear you're ill Meowee. There's something going around all the time this time of year. Take care of yourself.

Yes Rosey, I did consider wadding those pants up and throwing them in the closet. I figured that my DS would be on me like the crabs until I got them done. Yes, those mock danishes are good. I guess I've made them in every flavor there is.

Gotta run now and get started. Laundry Day. Have a nice day Everybody! Bye.

Oooo new thread and just in time for my return to! hi gang, sorry I have been away so long, got stuck down in New mexico with hubby. least it's warm down there right now lol!
Feeling like a beached whale this week, seems in the wonders of my pcos my body decided to spring a cycle on me without warning as usual and wait for 24 hours to fill me up with that wonderful water retention feeling... AND the scales show an 8lb gain /sigh, please tell me I didn't gain and that it's just water!!!!
Picked up an off the shelf drug *Sugar Blocker* not sure how it's going to pan out but giving it a try anyway. However my SL's are back up in the 150's again, but that's because i have been bad the last week and not really been eating well =( Back to the rabbit food now I am home!!...yeah...lettuce.... bleh!

*hugs to all* nice to be back home, chat to you all tomorrow!

-Dianne

Hello Everybody! It's cold and rainy here and they said it will be till Saturday. Might even thunderstorm Thur and Fri. Every joint in my body is hurting or sore this morning. Maby I will loosen up a little when I get started cleaning this nasty house today. I been sewing the last few days and have let it go. When I was in the closet getting the fabric out for the pants form **** I found a bag of pretty good size fake fur samples. My cat sorta liked them so I guess my next project will be "Fake Fur Cat Toys Filled With Catnip". I'd better wait unil I get in a little better shape before I start so I can fight Him off while I'm stuffing them with catnip. He's a big old Kitty! Take care of yourselves and have a nice day. Bye.
