Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

[callyandy]

A nice 5.1 for my birthday this AM.

Sorry missed it. Hope you had a happy jolly and maybe a bit of naughty birthday. 39 is a magnificent age

7.6 this morning. Get in.

Breakfast coffee with cream, a tub of hummus and half a pack of pepperoni. Lunch stewed green beans, cauli, garlic and tomato with a good glug of olive oil, and a pot of fresh ginger, tumeric and lemon tea. Dinner 2 eggs poached in miso soup, with spinach and a pack of smoked mackerel (not sure if this was a winner or not, probably should have kept them separate).

Had a pretty physical day laying concrete and took the dog and goat for a walk too after my bloods rose to 9 after lunch.

Pretty pleased with progress tho. Just on the metformin now have ditched the Lyxumia. Last hba1c was 71 at the beginning of January.

There is a thread where you can post your menus. This thread is for fasting numbers @helga_t75

Freema I did eat 10 Pecan nuts and a small amount of feta cheese but my BG at 6.55 am this morning was 6.1 so it's going up again,Has I said previously I'm so not getting this,why if I had food about 9 pm has it gone up? K

6.8 @ 5 AM 5.5 @ 7 AM.

About 11.9 an hour after my birthday lunch yesterday then 4.7 an hour after that then at around 7 PM 7.2 without having eaten since lunch and 9.8 at bed time after a teaspoon of peanut butter.

God and the chef may have known how many carbs was in that meal I don't. .

 

[JohnEGreen]

Good Morning! 6.2 on my Accu Chek and 6.5 on my TEE2 at 0750 today.
I think it's due to too many peanuts last night.

Please don't feed your meters peanuts it does them no good.

7.6 this morning so on the downward slope at last I think, though I stayed dry last night

Slightly scary 6.9 for today, after perhaps a rather indulgent evening

Prem, peanuts should be fine in small doses. It is low glycemic and I love it.
