5.2 again this morning, which appears to be my new "norm". One thing that gradually increasing my carbs has done though is kick me out of ketosis at 50g / day of carbs (which seems quite low to me). I need to re-evaluate my whole regime now and decide which way to go next :)

6.6 don't know where that has come from, but work calls will check a bit later and adjust accordingly.

Good day all

6.7 this morning - still not good enough. But at least I know I was good yesterday; no snacks and plenty of activity with a 4 mile walk which my app reckons used up 300 calories.

7.2 can't seem to get below 7, this is my lowest fasting level so far. Am I doing something wrong?

Never usually retest but I did this morning and got a 5.7, will still record the higher for my records, be interesting to see what lunch time reading brings.
