5.2 but it was a very late test as I had meetings all morning so didn't test until mid day though it was a "fasting" test as I hadn't had anything to eat.

That is a damned fine result! Your Pancreas counter's your liver incredibly well - excellent stuff!

Have a peaceful weekend folks

Victosa is a once a day injection that is supposed to lower blood glucose levels and help with weight loss. I have already lost 99 pounds on my own, but have a ways to go yet, so I am hoping this will keep the weight dropping off for some time yet.

Before starting on the Victosa I was just on Metformin and my sugars were always in the teens or sometimes 20;s.

Good luck... Are you low-carbing to lose weight and lower your numbers? If you don't mind me being nosy...

Fasting p this morning to 6.7 - probably due to stress - sodding $%&* husband thinks I should oblige him and eat cornflour because it's more convenient for him if he wants to thicken food :eek::eek: - my refusal to accept this resulted in him more or less telling me I was clueless low carb wise. :banghead: :banghead::banghead:

I expect my blood pressure's through the roof now too.... And NO - I don't feel like being sensible and calming down just yet!

Can you see the high carb steam coming out of my ears?? :D

I wish mine would learn to live in complete harmony, some days they have a right old punch up... I'm sometimes beginning to think they're too old now to change their ways!

6.1 today. Just back from holiday and have kept to Hflc diet so am pleased. Been getting some good results in the 5s which is very good for me - thanks to all the walking. Must try to keep up the exercise.
 
Oops not done mine for today.
Fasting this morning 6.8 mmol / L from a pre bed of 6.2 mmol / L - better! :)

I am tormented by Sainsbury's bakery every morning when I am in the garden with the dogs or out walking them.... The wind seems to have been blowing from that direction since they started baking the hot X buns ... They smell soooooo goooood and I KNOW they are... Fresh, split in half and plastered with butter....droool droool
