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

[irish-colt]

Morning folks. Question of wine ?? Gonna be a nice red, a Shiraz or a Pinotage.
But, down to Earth with a bump this morning

10.0 at 8:40.
Someone, somewhere is having a laugh at me and my naive excitement.

Ah well, onwards and downwards. The next reading WILL be low........I hope

5.0 at 9:45

yesterday 135 grams of cabs 120 grams of protein , burned 1890 calories at fitness.
my number was 4.7 in the late afternood, the lowest since diagnosed

Well done. I like to see others doing that which I am trying to do.

@irish-colt Red or white? ... You'll have earned it by month end and you'll enjoy it all the more for having waited for it... my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

 

[irish-colt]

Well done. I like to see others doing that which I am trying to do.

yes my morning numbers are going down slowly, it seems that it is hard to get them in the fours , which I of cause am aiming for like 4.5mmol is my goal
my liver is rather good at compensation every lowering in my blood glucose... maybe due to earlier times of disease in which I was starwing for very long periods, not on purpose but because of cronic and like automatic wommitting 24 hours a day...

Hi folks. Gotta admit I was feeling chuffed this morning with my reading of 9.1.
But this afternoon, 3 hours after lunch (omelette and bacon) I got a ,drum roll pleaaasssse, reading of 8.3 !!!
This evening after dinner of salad, tomatoes and Salmon fillet, wait for it, a reading of 8.4

Looks like the diet is staring to kick in. Could still kill for a nice glass of wine. But promised I'd go a month and I've an appointment with the Doctor at the end of the month. That's my target. Going for it.

Meanwhile, thanks for ALL of the messages of support and the initial advice, quite a of which I have put into practice..

Going down, further to go.

Well done inspirational!

Hi folks. As you can imagine, I wasn't to pleased with my bloods this morning. But I'm realising that, as I said before, the pre breakfast pin stick might not be the one to get bent out of shape over.

So back to my routine. Unfortunately I had a 12:0 after lunch. Really p*^^ed me off. Took another sip of coffee and realised the problem. Shouldn't of had my coffee until after the blood letting

Not much I could do after that, so had to wait until the evening test and got a very nice 8.4. Yayyyyy

Still sticking to the low carb routine and other than having weird dreams about bathing in red wine, it seems to be doin fine.

So onwards and downwards. Hope you all have a good weekend with nice low numbers.

4 hours !! Sounds like hell. Hope the antibiotics kick I and the bloods recover. Enjoy the weekend
