Not at all . . . we're still an international community with many members using mmol. USA is about the only country using mg/dl, so both numbers are appreciated.

And if anyone is ever confronted with only one of them, the magic trick is to divide or multiply by 18.05. To convert mmol to mg/dl, you multiple by 18.05; to convert mg/dl to mmol, you divide by 18.05.

Still feeling punk.  My PT took pity on me yesterday and didn't work me so hard.  That is probably why I feel a little better.

Wally glad the shots helped your knees w/out messing with bg.

112 was up a bit because instead of having 2 pieces of 85% Cacao chocolate last night I had four!  and that always leaves me higher in the morning.  I have tested and I stay below 123, but it doesn't clear out to fast....SMILE

118 yesterday morning.   >:( :-[

Clearly, something did not agree with me.

102 (5.7) this morning.  A bit higher than I like but I just blame it on the time change.   ;)

Woke to a new blanket of snow.  Went to PT and did some grocery shopping, that's why I'm late to post.

Hey guys, it's getting lonely in here please share some numbers.

Must've been the couple of beers I had yesterday. I must remember that Beer is "liquid wheat".

skb.....
As a guy who worked for Coors for 17 years I gotta have my 'barley pop'!  I finally settled on Micalob Untra (SP?), even though it is made by the 'enemy'!  It has a nice clean taste and is very low carb. My meter says ok have a couple, so you might what to give it a try!   

I know it is not a good dark ale or stout, but for me it is so much better than none!

89 (4.9) this morning.  Sorry to be among the missing, I've been busy playing with a new toy and just forgot.   :-[
I have also found that 1 or 2 light beers don't bother my bg.  Up to about 5 years ago I used to have 3-4 an evening but my doctor thought it was interfering with my blood pressure meds so I quit any alcohol but it doesn't seem to cause any problem now but I only partake on occasion.

My everlovin', who isn't diabetic but still follows LCHF with me, has decided Michelob Ultra is his choice too - I've taken an occasional swig and my meter didn't bite me either.

I too can get away with a Michelob Ultra once in a while. It is nice to have that option.
