Yesterday ate solidly most of the day as cooking for a party. Went to said party , ate and drank until late.
Woke with a 5.2

Good morning
Libre 5.2
Finetest lite 5
5.4 average over the last 24 hours, libres happy I’m just exhausted
Rest day from exercise (apart from 100 squats) & another long day at work
Have a good day everyone

I find it interesting the differences between libre2 and blood strip readings. Sometimes they are very close and sometimes, usually at higher reading they can be quite different - up to a difference of around 2mmol/l
