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

[Sharara]

My blood sugar was 9.2. I am not on medication and watch my diet.

 

[Sharara]

Type 2 and not on medication trying to watch my diet. I have another health condition that requires I eat carbs so it is hard to balance my diet and avoid too many carbs a day. I test before breakfast and eat cereal most days or have scrambled eggs. Milky tea with sweetener. Don’t like using artificial sweetener but can’t stand the tea without!

FBG 5.7 at 7:20

You've reminded me @DEBBIESCOTT I have a some ‘bike stuff‘ in the garage left from my husband’s cycling days. I should sort it out and give it to a cyclis!

Have a lovely day everyone x

Up and down like a see saw at the moment - FBG 6.4 this morning. Last working day before Easter so hopefully a less stressful time ahead.

Morning @Sharara and welcome back to this FBG thread. We're pleased you could join us again.

Hello @Sharara. Unfortunately, breakfast cereal is mostly carbohydrate, so isn't a good choice for those of us coping with type 2 diabetes. Scrambled eggs, in fact eggs cooked any way you like them, make a much better diabetic-friendly start to the day.

Forgot to post this morning.

FBG Fingerprick 8.6 Libre 8.8 … probably should have left it forgotten. Lol

 

[Ladynijo]

Another 6.4 this morning. Disappointing, though I did forget to take the metformin last night. Temperature running a bit high overnight and a bit sniffy so maybe fighting off a bug. Off for a gentle swim later, got to keep moving.

Hi Jordi,
As an insulin user, I hope the 4.1 was ok for you?

 

[Ryhia]

6.2 this morning - again.

 

[mojo37]

Another 12 this morning probably the honey and lemon throughout the night is not helping with morning results ...but it is helping with my chest infection and that is my priority at the moment .

7.5 this morning - darn peanuts! Cannot eat them after 6pm! Work out done, down to 6.2

Me neither @Lainie71. At least you know why this morning's FBG reading was above your normal range and you know how to get back on an even keel.
