Hi there...
I haven't been around for a few days as I've been going mad with tons of stress and situations which I think are affecting my BGs.

I've been in the mid 5's for FBG for about a week now.

Only up to 6.8 yesterday during the afternoon, the culprit: Coffee with milk with an unkown sweetner (to me) brand that happened to be stevia (branded as Navia) . Milk and sugar always a problem...

Glad to hear it went well @Clivethedrive

A deserved 6.4 this morning after last night's overindulgence.
It's when we don't know what causes the higher numbers that makes us worry it seems... mine are back to low 5's thank goodness...:)

4.5 this morning. Bridge night with the boys tonight, which is always a somewhat boozy affair with a nice supper, so may not be so good tomorrow morning.

I use Stevia in my morning cereal but it doesn't seem to affect me too much
Stevia doesn't bother me at all, but cereal spikes me badly... Can you eat spelt bread as well? I'm hoping one day I can put a few carbs back... :)

I hope it all settles down soon for you... stress is the worst thing... much worse than cake!!

5.0 on the spot, family gathering this evening, won't be testing tomorrow, I know they will be in the 3.6 - 4 in the morning, vodka has that effect on me.

Have a good Friday and weekend everyone, back later.
