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

[RosemaryJackson]

Morning all. Bedtime 6.8, this morning another disappointing 7.3. Carbs yesterday were 16g so was really hoping for a lower number. Hey ho, let's see what tomorrow brings. Enjoy your Sunday.

5.3 this morning, was expecting something different as had the flu vaccine yesterday. Looks like it did nothing unlike the covid booster that seemed to make my levels drop

Take care everyone and stay safe.

 

[callyandy]

8.0 this morning I hope it's because we ate late last night

Morning
6.4 today - all that pizza I ate last night - although it was thin base and I didn't eat the crusts!

 

[Lainie71]

6.8 this morning - about time! Despite a horrid nights sleep I was expecting a lot higher! Have a great Monday everyone x

 

[RosemaryJackson]

Morning all. Bedtime 7.3. This morning 7.4! I can only put it down to 2 squares of 70% salted caramel chocolate because my carb total was 23g. That is all I had different. Who knows? Have a good week folks

 

[Ladynijo]

FBG 5.7 this morning, after an accidental 5 mile hike… it was a such a nice warm afternoon, just a gentle stroll I thought, & before I knew it, I was in the next village. I did get a bus back as I don’t do up hills in the dark!

Have a magnificent Monday, folks.

Back into the 6's with a 6.9 this morning

 

[Estragon]

5.8 - Back amongst the Five-Hive. Well, yesterday I took on my nemesis Hill in our local park. Previously I’d need two or three rests, and each time I’d be scared to take it on. Well, playmates, yesterday, we walked up the same Hill, felt a new sense of lightness and stamina, reach the top and sat down on a bench and didn’t do my previous weak and shattered feeling. Rested for a quarter of the time, checked my heart rate, which was in gamut, and repeated the circuit! So twice around my nemesis, walked home and came back with a sense of achievement and renewal.

That's wonderful news. Well done!

@LivingLightly - Well thank you! The quad bypass is firmly embedded now. Word to the wise, the smart money has been on my T2 had, over the years reduced my descending heart arteries to only 20% efficiency and efficacy, meaning 80% was shot. So, "others" please be warned.
