[QUOTE="martinsk8r, post: 643073, member: 101652"] I think your readings are very good. There is something called 'dawn phenominon' where the liver dumps sugar into the blood ready for the start of the day. I had 12hr fasting ready for a hospital blood test and the reading was 11. 2 hours later after the test and not eating it had risen to 12.5. So, I think your readings are normal and should rise like this. Keep thinking back to nature, it has (almost) all the answers. If you were hungry you would need blood sugar to hunt. Otherwise you would be too weak to do anything. Yes this is opposite to what we would expect but it is your body going on to reserve to get it to the next meal! [/QUOTE]
