Cindy, let us know how your mum's doing. Your immediate family sure can count on you for help.
Sure would be easy for you both if Doug's living much closer.
You're looking good in that pic, girl.

Well Sue, I've never heard of Konjac. Care to explain and what does it taste like? I've been adding molasses to my coffee daily, to build up my iron. Been doing this for more than a month now. Just 1 tbspn daily.
My blood sugar count has been much lower, surprisingly. At first I didn't trust the sites that said unsuphured molasses helped in stabilizing the sugar as 1 tbspn has 10 grams of sugar. But after a couple of weeks, it truly helped me. Instead of 64 units of Humalog, before every meal, I've been taking 60 and had not taken any Lantus (long lasting insulin). My morning sugar readings are normally above 250. Lately it's been below 200.
When I told my doctor about my legs, he said it could be my sugar. Told him of my readings.. he goes.. "it must be a fluke, use a new meter". Got a new meter and the readings are still A Plus!!

Rest now Susan.. you've certainly burnt up a lot of calories!

Some interesting reading here.
