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

[Keesha]

God morning all. 5.6 fbs for me this morning.

 

[Jenniewren1958]

Morning 6.1 today

 

[Chronicle_Cat]

6.1 for me this morning (less sleep means higher levels for me). Took it again at noon and it had dropped to 5.4

 

[Rockman]

Good morning all 4.3 this morning @ 04:40 AM

 

[Goonergal]

Morning. Vast quantities of (low carb) food consumed yesterday showing up in this morning’s reading of 5.7. The highest for a long time.

Good morning people, 5.5 this morning, have a good day all.

 

[ziggy_w]

Good morning all. Fasting blood sugars were 5.3 today.

 

[ianpspurs]

Morning all. The fake news meter is making unsubstantiated claims of a 5.2 this morning. I refuse to be in vassalage to this machine and intend to vote against it along with several other fruity loops.
In the real world - average carbs of 22 gms over last week has shredded my sleep as always. Anyone else find the same?
@Goonergal I don't like being lower than you just because you are at that level. Hope all is well and it is just a crazy blip.

Morning- a busy few days andBGs up and down.
Grapefruit caused a big spike yesterday- wasn’t expecting that from a friendly low GI fruit: I’m sure the fibre did me some good.

Anyway 6.2 today is unexcitingly average and will do to start the day

Really wish you hadn't mentioned the grapefruit @rhubarb73 Now I am left weeping over the loss of pleasure from Pamplemousse rose (juice) and sourdough toast with marmite followed by coffee. Ideally all consumed in sunny Aquitaine. Gonna be a long day now The past is a foreign country and all that but t'weren't all bad.

Jus de pamplemousse is my favourite French phrase. I like the way it sound - soothing to the soul.

7.7 at 6.30 am. Hmm, didn't play to the rules yesterday. Went to a funeral and later indulged in comfort eating. Need to do better and get this down into the 6 range on a regular basis. Hope to try some run/walking exercise later today as I haven't done anything for a while due to chest infection and cold.

4.6 this morning.

 

[philchap1]

3.8 today after a very low 1.8 last night, no reason for the low only the saga that is diabetes.

 

[Canvaspic]

Good morning all. Against the general trend, my BG is 4.7. A first for me, but am well aware it could be a blip.
Still doing keto and it seem to be working. Plan to test my ketones just once a week, on Friday. But forgot to doit first thing, so will do it tomorrow.
Raining here, so home gym for me.
Hope everyone is well, have a great day.

I cant imagine what that is like. Virtual hugs for what its worth.

5.6 today. Regularly around here these days. Gone are the 4s. I'm thinking the culprit is the 2 pieces of choc I have for supper. I savour every morcil but not sure I should be having it, or having it so late. Or is it that I don't have gallons of water now that I've lost the weight I needed to lose. Will do a little experiment this next few days.

Have a good day what ever you do folks.

[OrsonKartt]

5.4 again this morning.
