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

[Ryhia]

i am 4 months into my journey so i have not had my first HbA1c since being diagnosed in may. Hoping for a improvement at end of year . Changed signature so not so confusing

If your FBGs are a reflection of your overall control, then no doubt about it there should be a great improvement in your next HbA1c. Doing fantastic with the weight loss as well. Good on you.

6.5 this morning which is still in the middle, no colour ground but took the pointy thing an hour after I got up as I left my strips at home

7.2 - Went to bed on a 9.7. Day before was 7.3 and 9.8. Creeping downwards… HBA1C is 46 YAY for me! Just so I don’t get too jealous of all you 4s and 5s…

Wet, cold, dark but I'm still here and 'tis SSSF mayhap even halloumi chips aussi - God is good. Not so good is that my fbg was 5.6 on Swipey. Disaster darlings, disaster for <14 gms carb?? (The bottom line from my reading is 5.5/100 is the upper limit of managing.) This fashionable taking back control doesn't seem to cope too well in real life.

6.4 this morning and not wanting to budge at present.

Hope all you people who need hugs are feeling a little better this morning.

7.7 this morning.
The culprit was a low sugar hot chocolate with a milk and water mix at 10pm, resulting in an 8.2 before bed. But heck, it was good!

Bit of an uncomfortable night then at 5:30 a 3.3 then at 6:30 a 3.0 7:42 3.8 thought good on the way up then at 7.58 2.9 after a coffee and breakfast back up to 4.9 now 6.0 I thought it was compression lows but finger prick test says otherwise. Any way headache gone and hands have stopped shaking back to normal.

Nursing a nasty chest infection so given up measuring my bloods- they haven’t been great! I’ll be back once fully recovered. Wishing you all well!!

5.5, I think that’s my lowest fasting number so far, something is working

Well done!
