    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    7.1 this morning at 8am. Must get up earlier :) - Hope everyone is enjoying the lovely weather. Nice little breeze here in London so I am off out for a bit of a bike ride in a while.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Slept in a bit today so it was 7.2 at 8.45. 6.5 yesterday at 7.30, amazing how quickly it rises in the morning if I don't hit the insulin fast! Lovely here with no rain, off out on the bike to go and see a friend and sit in her garden putting the world to rights. Hope everyone is having a good...

    Thanks @DJC3 it was pretty tough, haven't taken exams for 20 years. Results due in July, so a while off.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Hello everyone. 6.2 for me this morning. I was totally wiped out after my exams but managing to keep the blood sugar pretty steady in the 6s. Hope everyone is having a good day, lovely to see the sun here in London (finally).

    6.5 this morning, last few days have been a series of sixes, which is nice. My last set of exams start today and end on Wednesday morning, I have promised husband and myself a kebab on Wednesday (it's our guilty pleasure) and a couple of glasses of wine. Once exam finishes on Wednesday, apart...

    7.2 this morning, the latest in a series of 8s and 7s. Goes with the exam territory I suppose. Never mind, all back to normal next week. Hurray!

    8.0 today, 7.2 yesterday. Exams take it out of me! Cheeky little correction with the Novorapid seems to be doing the trick. Out on the bike later. Lovely and sunny here in London going to make the best of the good weather, I hear rain is on its way. Hope everyone is having a good day. P

    7.2 this morning which suits me fine, unsurprising as I have an exam today and I have been tossing and turning a bit all night. Hope everyone has a fabulous day.

    Starting NovoRapid

    Quick update. All going very nicely. I am pleased. There are spikes, but to be honest, while I am studying I am eating some things I probably shouldn't eat and not as active as I am normally. Another couple of weeks and I will be back into more like my normal routine. A couple of hypo...

    3.8 this morning, I was woken by my low glucose alarm - an entirely new experience. Quickly dealt with that with a few raisins before getting the morning insulin on board. Hope everyone has a good Sunday. Exam tomorrow so guess what I will be doing?

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    I feel your pain. Several years of waking up with higher numbers in the morning than I went to bed with the previous night got very wearing at times.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Thrilled to tiny little bits. 4.8 this morning. I did not believe it was possible, I thought that I was some sort of alien who was unable to have FBGs under 6! Been mad at the studies this week and have been registering 6s all week. I had to jump online and let my lovely 'diabetic club' (as...

    8.8 this morning :banghead:. Was positively angelic yesterday so I can only surmise that exam stress is not good for my blood sugar. Bike ride booked for lunchtime as being stuck behind a desk all day is not good either. Tried a cheeky correction dose.
