  6. Agree ..... STEEL HORSES BABY Guessing OP never road horses at full gallop either ... 😎 Let alone a 900cc @ 125+ mph / 200+ kph Speedometer didn't go up that high, but my 750cc did, and I was definitely going faster than that on the 900cc Got to Live a Full Life .... And driving around semi-rural Thailand is dangerous at 60 to 90 kph (56 mph)
  7. From the back veranda ... must be ride the cow day, 3 different cow, with 3 different birds. One had 2 birds on it for a while.
  8. Agree 100% Was just a 2 week+ test for me, as curious more about 7-11's offerings. Surprised that my choices from, weren't bad at all. Though keep it to when O&A, as not as healthy as our whole food home eating lifestyle. Too inexpensive (฿1050) not to use, as filled in the gaps from the YT'er that has channel testing all things healthy or unhealthy. Also think some things demonized, are better, healthier options, such as pizza. Can also minimize the spikes, by when, how, in what order you eat, and a stroll afterwards. Pizza I ate yesterday, early dinner spiked as expected. But the snack a few hours later, did not, but I went for a stroll in between, raising my metabolism, and carried over apparently. Intermittent fasting makes a huge difference, and start the day with a very low baseline, while them super ketones burn fat overnight 👍 Was nice to compare different options as better choice, as one post pointed out. Can eat Steak & eggs w/toast, better than one small carb snack. Pretty eye opening. If diabetic, then I'd probably have one 24/7, as just too accurate and less hassle than poking yourself all the time. Give you an alert every time you reached any hi / lo threshold, and probably needed to avoid any oops.
  9. Tik Tok ... 😭 Last test and already spiked up to 8.7, and coming down, from 5.8 = 52.2 mg/dl No surprise, as not nearly enough butter to negate the carbs / sugar load. 26 October Coffee 0911 WW Toast, butter, sugar. cinnamon – 52.2 Whole Wheat toast (homemade) = 2+ slices of Makro bread, (mine) 57gr vs 50gr (Makro) Butter 11gr, sugar and cinnamon < 1gr When I get bored, I'll post all the info for past 2 weeks, foods & graphs, for anyone interested 🙄
  10. For me, IF, MG S5 .... BUT ... the wife would be opposed, and I'd have to agree, as I'll be long gone, and she really likes the MG IM6. Life time warranty, and would be here last vehicle. If BYD had life time warranty, would probably consider them, or if RD6 came with life time warranty, it would be in the truckport now I haven't sat in it, IM6, but it's all around larger than our ZS, so guess I wouldn't have any issue getting in/out.
  11. Again, irrelevant to individuals. As silly as 'guns kill', and I owned 16, and nobody was every harmed. That 74% might apply to me ... IF ... ... I wasn't trained (here's the brake, clutch, accelerator & lean into curves) ... I wasn't experience (44 yrs) ... I didn't practice extreme defensive driving skills ... I drove irresponsibly, and didn't obey most laws ... I drove at higher speeds than conditions permitted ... I didn't wear a helmet ... I drove under the influence ... I didn't have something to live for, and people wanting me to live If I was 20 yrs old, owned a MC, and drove it like the idiot I was back then, yea, I wouldn't have made to 21 yrs old. Why I didn't buy MC (750cc) until I was 27, as I knew, I'd kill myself. As reckless as I was, I was at least that intelligent.
  12. Yea, that would defeat the whole purpose of retiring in foreign country. # 1 married rural # 3 single, a relationship or 10 # 12 Rock On
  13. Shopping ... no problem ...
  14. She had views ... Thought all she did .... IMHO ... was, hide the families heritage, tell the kids to behave themselves, keep it white, and pay millions out when they made the news. Who would have thought Had to throw in ... IMHO ... as I know you can say anything about Trump, but maybe not about Ol' Queenie 😎
  15. Hell Yea ... please run, you GO GIRL Don't let them racist, sexist bastards stop you, BE ALL YOU CAN BE The world needs a laugh. Who would think anyone could possibly be dumber than Bush, Biden or even Quayle on the campaign trail
  16. I notice I post Jan 2024 ... just rarely. Since then I've seen the light. Oh you poor lost ones ... JOIN ME, fight against that DEMON ALCOHOL ....
  17. My first night using, on normal overnight fast, and not eating till almost noon. Then the testing began Rest of the 2 week ... well, nuff said Starting eating some days at 5 AM
  18. Back to a normal, overnight fast, as last snack was 1900 hr. Made a huge different in overnight glucose, as dropped down to one of the lowest in 2 weeks, 4.4. Same with first to days of using CGM, which were 4.2 & 4.5. Before I started testing and eating silly. Most times, at 6.0, occasionally 5.5. So a whole 1 to 1.5 off the baseline, across the board for almost week, with much less food, carbs / sugars eaten, and my HbAic would be closer to my normal, 5.3+/-, instead of the CGM's estimate of 6.3. Amazing I can eat that much, that crappy, and still not be in diabetic territory. Now that awake, and needing energy, up to 5.4, which is still lower than most of my overnights, the past 2 weeks. I think not having a late night snack, or sipping beer till late night makes a huge difference, as overnight fast would have nil effect, especially if eat brekkie when most do, just after waking. Couldn't call that a fast. I normally wouldn't eat till almost noon. Will do one test today though, as CGM still active till 1039 hrs. Had Pizza Co pepperoni pizza for dinner, and last snack, and didn't spike as high as I expected, but I do consider pizza a healthy food, especially with the added fat & protein of the pepperoni 🙄 25 October Coffee 0505 Grilled Cheese – 41.4 0756 Peanut Butter & Preserves – 50.4 0951 Roti – 63 1546 Pepperoni Pizza (Pizza Co) – 45 1858 Pepperoni Pizza – 7.2 That pretty much wraps this thread up. My morning test will be whole wheat toast, butter, honey or sugar & cinnamon, and should be good for a nice spike. Not sure if going to eat my eggs first with it. Which usually lessens the spike 1/3 or even 1/2 of.
  19. Hate is a bit strong, except when thinking about the USS Liberty. Loath, disgust, better for the rest of my thoughts about Israel, how they've dominated that little corner and simply expanded, controlling all aspect of Palestinians lives already, while throwing them, Palestinians, out the their homes and land, and expanding their settlements. Now thinking about annexing and simply taking it for themselves. Pure EVIL ... IMHO
  20. Yep, sooner or later ... you run out of other people's money. Socialism never works, never has, never will. Capitalism & free enterprise. USA is so far behind, it's mind boggling. Over regulated, over taxed, unions are a joke, self serving to themselves. There's no incentive to be productive past a certain point, as the more you make, the more they take. I literally stopped producing, generating income, because they, govt, was taking almost half. What's the point, especially when I'm taking all the risk. I'm was just a little guy, but there's millions of us. There's a lot of big hitters out, got to be thinking the same ... "why do I bother" and many are stopping or leaving for greener pastures. Whether different states or different countries. USA can't compete any more, not that it ever could, that past 50+ years. Everything outsourced. Trump has good ideas, theoretically, though aside from being too late, nobody cares, and all will fail miserably. Nobody wants to work, put in the effort, the time. Just all want free sh!t, and others to pay for it. Som nam naa So glad I left, and if not so ignorant, would have left a lot earlier.
  21. But I really want to or 😭 Inflation held down to 2.8 ... AND ... Medicare Plan B up 11.6 % Plan B deductible, even higher ... 12 % 2.8 % for you ..... 11.8 & 12 % for us. Sounds fair
  22. OMG ... couldn't agree more, scary sh!t, that is My hate for Israel grows every day, worse, the USA constantly supports them. Never a doubt in my mind, and kind of points out, who actually controls the USA ... IMHO
  23. @Elik Kept track after charging up to 100%, and can't say I've lost much in range, at worst, 5%. Think I've guessed range at 90 kms in the past. So reality, 75 kms with 1 bar remaining. Just past 4 years owning, and coming back home, it was nipping on 2 bars when accelerating, so means there is at least 30 kms left. As I tracked each bar (6) in the past and average about 15 kms+ per bar. So minimal loss of range. I do baby the battery, since not LFP. Rarely go below 3 bars, and only charge up to 100%, when I know I'm going to use it that day or next day. Never sits at 100% when we go out of town, usually around 80%. Always let it rest for hour or so, before charging. Rarely drive over 60 kph, since the dog is in the front basket most of the time, and don't want to dry her eyes out. Dog and myself, weight 90 kg or less, (80+10). Their promo at the time of purchase, and I think the Owner's Manual stated range was 90 kms, so just a bit more accurate 🙄 New Promo .... 👍 Still pushing that 140 kms range https://decogreenenergy.com/index.php/th/products/3000w-2/susu
  24. CGM officially 'expired' ... BUT ... 24 hr grace period allowed, not sure how that works, though they do recommend buying another, so no data is loss ... big surprise. NO THANKS I can highly recommend this Ottai CGM though, especially if concerned about being pre or diabetic, if not already. Readings every 5 mins. Can't beat the price point and very user friendly 👍👍 Think I got all the info that I need. Actually eat fairly healthy, most of the time, which is nice to be confirmed, though blood work does that, along with a scale & mirror. Really can't think what else to test, as abused myself enough already 🙄 Did learn a few things, and better choices obviously pointed out, like below. I can enjoy any of those 3 items, or simply eat Steak & Eggs, with homemade whole wheat toast & butter. Hmm, let me think 1221 Steak & Eggs, w/toast – 21.6 .................... OR ........................... 0505 Grilled Cheese – 41.4 0756 Peanut Butter & Preserves – 50.4 0951 Roti – 63 Spike ... Spike ... Spike ... "How to be a Diabetic 101"
