Good morning and happy Mother's day. New to the forum and diagnosed last month. Started testing myself last week. Usually below 6 after fasting, but 7.2 this morning. Was experimental yesterday so it makes sense to me. Worth it though

Thank you @ianpspurs
Been good seeing the results and been helpful in learning how to manage my meals. Excited to try some of the recipes on the site.

Very likely, and how well/poorly you slept
Hello, I am new to the forum and will like to learn the measurements posted. In the US my reading in the morning is around 100, which is within the normal range. In the UK measurements what is considered normal fasting measurement and also what is AIC reading to be considered diabetic. Thanks

Well Howdy there! Really glad you’ve signed-up. You’ll find a great group of knowledgeable individuals here. I’m not so sure about US<>UK conversions. Read my signature and you’ll get a view to what numbers I’m reaching for.

Morning all. Well, we have a very foggy morning here so hopefully a beautiful day when it clears. 7.3 today after a bedtime reading of 7.2. Went off the straight and narrow yesterday I'm afraid. The desserts were far too tempting and I am but a weak woman !!

Monday, Monday so ???? to me. A serviceable/beige 5.1 from Swipey today which fits the cooler, misty day here. Glad you enjoyed Bath @PenguinMum and eschewed lovely Rita (the) meter (maid) - I didn't like the Beatles actually. @ultradad enjoy Torquay - English Riviera - really didn't appeal to me (lacked the "refinement" of Southwold or Padstow imho) but I'm a rum cove. @RosemaryJackson, yes, yes but were the desserts lush? Do enjoy today safely. Thermal Go Team D clothing washed, ironed and ready to wear here
