couple, us we him her.

It's a really difficult time I know #1st world problems and some people don't have anything at Christmas.

But personally I find it incredibly frustrating and a difficult time of year.

Seems like the world is gorging itself on just about everything and anything.

Even just having Xmas pud is too much.

Thankfully I love Turkey and meat so bring on the cold meat salad boxing Day ??

It's not difficult tho to go over the limit given how much everything seems to be full o sugar!!

This, and it takes a lot more than hours to get back to evening it out. If possible have a brisk walk/do some exercise soon after to help you with keeping the levels down.

I do like to eat my self into a near death state and then just up my insulin to adjust my badness but then that’s just what I do every day really.

Just off to get a choccy bar yum!!!!
