Better than summer when IMO it was too hot i.e. 30 C. Today +10 C i.e. 50 F. We were bemused by the heavy snow storm in Texas but felt sorry for all the accidents on the road. The arctic air side of Jet stream seems to go way down south. Possibly no snow for Christmas. I can live with that but Canada (with the exception of our semi-tropical paradise) without snow is like Hell without fire.]]> 11793 Post your daily exercise Mon, 15 Jun 2026 15:52:03 +0000 https://www.diabetesdaily.com/forum/threads/post-your-daily-exercise.75275/ 75275 invalid@example.com (plymouth) plymouth Anyone interested in doing this?

The thread kept going until the forum was shut down. No wrong answer and there's more than one right answer. You may have several answers.

Happiness is a dinner cooked by mom.]]> 1382 What did you have for breakfast today?

Not sure if that is good or bad :) I tested an hour afterwards and was 7.4, so I think that was ok? And I did have organic, wholemeal, seeded bread and Flora light margarine.

I have read/heard a lot of different things about diet and have to say as a newly diagnosed diabetic I am thoroughly confused! My nurse said to eat normally though, but cut down on fat, salt and sugar which I think I am doing ok - the odd slip aside! I don't need to lose any weight...

They have all been quite a hassle to deal with.

Is there any that are recommended that might be not only better to order from but also to resolve issues with.

It is so difficult to find one that doesn't just make life more difficult when we have enough to manage.]]> 12 What's for dinner tonight?

I also love being inspired by others' ideas. So let's post on this thread some of the nice meals we are making these days for ourselves and our families. This thread is for posting menus and perhaps photos. It's not for posting recipes. However, if anyone wants a recipe, just ask for it.

Tonight I made Thai Spicy Coconut Shrimp Soup - one of our favorites, and I think it is one of the prettiest dishes in the world! It's made with chicken...
