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

Happy Monday all! 5.2 this morning, did a 7 mile walk yesterday (Wagamama penance!) so that probably helped. Although 4 miles of it were entirely involuntary, as I got a bit lost…
My ankle’s wrecked now!
Still, that’s 3 days on the trot FBG under 6 so all good.

8.0 - T2 doesn't rest, even when there is post-op pain :inpain:. Mind you, toasted bagels do help ;)

Hope your pain settles down soon. @Estragon

I’ve just got some Heylo bagels which are supposed to be keto/ low carb so I’m going to try them for those moments when only a toasted bagel will do. I dare say they’ll not be the same as the real deal but I can pretend
 
@RosemaryJackson . I match your 7.3 today. And hope you get out of your dumps soon.
@Estragon , just caught up with some posts, you have been through some tough days, so be kind to yourself , but don’t get addicted to bagels :confused:

Getting out of the rut I found myself in. It was getting deeper, more a trench than a rut. Less than 30g carbs yesterday. It will be even less today, with a swim session and walk for good measure. Now I have told you all that I have to stick to it, :)
 
7.5 - Monumental pain from 1am this morning. Just learnt that I maybe one of the fortunate masochists that can’t convert Codeine to Morphine. Going to quizz all of my Alchemists here at Estragon Towers for a better magic solution. Presently I’m not ruling out Eye of Toad.
 
Morning All last day of my jollies, heading home soon. used a Libre for guidance but didn’t use meter last 5 days. Aldeburgh best fish & chips EVER. Thrigby Hall magical. But that North sea wind hells bells! Delighted to see @Estragon is back from the other side and hope you can find more helpful meds. Bagels …what bagels ;) Enjoy the day everyone.
 
@Estragon
Sorry for your pain. As someone with allergies to morphine codeine,NSAIs etc, the only thing left is meditation and distraction such as forum reading. . Hope you can find some decent pain relief soon.

Back to business, I was happier to be in the sixes with 6.7 this morning.
