When do you guys tend to test your fasting sugars? When you wake up, or before the first time you eat? The reason I ask is that I don't eat for at least 6 hours after waking, and the difference between my fbg upon waking and then before I eat for the first time are extremely different.

6.1 today before my first meal.

Morning everyone, not quite light yet.
Madam's number's on the feathery side, a giggling 5.3. We're back in today but will we get dumped on later this morning?

Good morning all. Blood sugars were 5.2 this morning.

@flexi06 -- Congrats on a fab HbA1c. You've put in a lot of hard work and I am certain your next one will be even lower.

5.8 at 0530, that will do for today

13.5 I forgot to test when I woke so this was after a shower, not sure if that makes a difference, this is strangely fun reading people’s numbers, not sure why

 

[Goonergal]

Morning. 4.7 today. That’s better!

Hi @Goonergal,

Happy to see that your numbers have dropped. Well done.

4.2 @ 05:52

Don't know. I don't usually measure it first thing as it has been good ( 4.5 to 5.5 ) for ages. If I have a routine breakfast that I've measured many times I don't even bother with that most days either. I do the occasional check just to make sure, maybe once a fortnight unless a known binge happened the night before. ( Birthdays, XMas etc )

Hi all. 5.5 for me today. I have kept to the floor excercises and weights for a week. Noticed a nice improvment in the first few days, but now it seem to have gone back to where i was. Need to watch the food intake, with a view to shedding a few pounds. Weather is sunny here, nice walk on the cards. Have a good one.
