Your stress levels will almost certainly be impacting on your levels, but at times like this the odd high reading isn't really an enormous priority.

I hope today goes OK (whatever that means).
Well said AB :)

Thanks. I think part of it is being back in my routine and also I had hair appointment so had breakfast early so decent gap between meals. Usually they are quite bunched together as I'm not an early riser.

Same problem with me. I realised this ages ago and started getting up an hour earlier. It made a huge difference to my pre- and post lunch readings. Sadly I've lapsed a bit over Christmas!
