I am loving all these 4's and 5's on here and so envious of any low reading.
Just lately I have been eating like an anorexic rabbit with mainly salad stuff and total carbs less than 30g but still only managing to get starting readings of 6.6 yesterday and 6.0 today.
Next week I will probably go back on the CGM to get a better handle on daily fluctuations as long as the postie arrives in time.
Good luck to all those who envy the lows whilst like me wallow in the highs. Well done to those low numbers, certainly gives me something to aim for even if I am way off the target.

5.9 today, meter reading. CGM has expired….i miss it but likely won’t put another on for a while, way too pricey….but I do have three here at home. Saving them for my trip to Japan.
The sun is out today, it’s lovely. The gardens are amazing…love this time of year.

noticed in a prior post you were able to stop insulin and still take oral meds do any of those come with hypo risk if so would keep careful eye on that side and if consistantly sub 4 then maybe worth speaking to your dsn again those meds maybe can be reduced a little too. best wishes.
