Morning all. 6.9 this morning. Better but not where I want to be.

Libre 7.1 which is a bit higher than normal but never really surprised these days with my very own version of Tales of the Unexpected.

Morning All back from my last jollies of the year, a long weekend in Lyme Regis with old friends. So 6.2 today which must be due to the fun, laughter and fresh fish. @Estragon good to see you back fella, don’t fret about the occasional high readings you have had so much to contend with. Hope the energy improves gradually. Happy Tuesday everyone.

Hello mates,
At a couple of the other forums I've frequented there was a thread like this one where we all sorta checked in each day, with our first cup of coffee or tea, and reported our fasting or waking blood glucose level and some short comment about whether we're ok with it or if not - why not?...

It worked well as a sort of 'first thread to check' each morning and post to.

I'll start.

This morning was a 5.6mmol for me. That's about normal for me

What about you?

I have uncontrolled diabetes type 2 my highest fasting blood glucose is 8.2 mmol/l and lowest 3.9, HbA1c 6.5%. I'm not on insuline or any medications.

Greetings @Boris Vukas and welcome to this FBG thread. It's good to see you here.

Logging my FBG numbers here, it must be said, helps to keep me motivated, especially when readings drift upwards due factors beyond our control like infection and injury.

Once again, welcome

6.8 this grey and dreary morning. Trying to avoid the unexpected and horrors but not been all that successful recently. Putting it down to vaccinations as been really good on diet and exercise by my standards anyway.

6.8. No vaccinations- eating close to carnivore - grey and windy morning

Have a great day if you possibly can

That is good no matter what I do mine rises as I get up and potter about and usually continues till I eat. Then after a good walk ( not always possible depends on my shifts ) it drops down to good levels .
