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

8.6 for me @Bcgirl, according to the Glucose Goddess, you should eat veg (and I presume fruit) before you eat the protein and lastly carbs. You get a lower spike.

This notion has been around for at least 20 years, possibly longer. Have you tried it?@RosemaryJackson

This strategy has never worked for me @RosemaryJackson, but your experience may be different.
Have you tried it?

Hign again today..6.7 then immediately down to 6.0
yesterday I was pretty sure my pancreas was on its way out as my readings over the past few weeks have been significantly higher that previous months. I was ready to chat with my doctor, get more tests….but miracle of miracles, the levels regulated while I was working out this morning and they’ve been good since. I have double checked with blood pricks. I seriously have no idea why, maybe just a pancreatic blip. We will see what the next week brings.
Got my “Covid” hair chopped off yesterday….I’m so happy with the cut! It’s a long pixie.
We’re having a late summer, it’s hot today at 30 degrees and this should last for a good week. September is always a beautiful month here…love it!

Your numbers have been trending higher than is usual for you @Bcgirl, but they're not horrendous, your appetite hasn't waned and you haven't experienced digestive issues. I hope your readings stabilise soon.

It's good to hear you're seeing a specialist on Tuesday @DEBBIESCOTT
You still managed to turn in a decent FBG reading despite that stubborn infection.
