5.5 after several stressful days, am early dinner and not much sleep. I think this is okay.

Good morning all. I had a fasting reading of 5.2 this morning after a reading of 5.5 at bedtime last night.

Bullies, discrimination of any kind, bad manners, parents who let their kids run amok & spoil things for everyone else, unkind spiteful people, being a clumsy clod, toast crumbs in the bed, cold feet!!

Getting straight to the point @Alzebra...these BG results are BL@@DY AMAZING! It wasn't so long ago you were a Newbie, seeking advice on how to lower your BG. Now, you're giving advice AND achieving great numbers. It's lovely to see. From one North East lass to another...well done mate. :p X

5.2 before bed, 6 this am, another 3lbs lost now at 14 stone so maybe, just maybe I'm finely getting on top of this insulin resistance!

4.0 this morning.
Yesterday I didn't get above 5.1 all day. When I'm strict on the LCHF I barely get any post prandrial increases. When I'm not strict, however ...

6.7 when I awoke at 5.20am, went downstairs had some water, watched breakfast tv - dozed off for an hour, tested again at 7am and up to 7.8?, am I right in assuming this is a "Liver Dump" and is there anyway to avoid? I take 2 x 500 metformin in morning and before evening meal- readings during day always below 7? I have not taken morning dose yet
