    6.5 today. Still very low carb so this number is just a mystery. Gym today was a four km walk followed by chest and back weights. Threw some abs in there too. Bacon and eggs for lunch with a homemade keto shortbread (2 carbs)

    Anyone Using a CGM?

    I use, on occasion, a Dexcom g7 which can be calibrated. I generally ignore the readings on the first day and do fingerprick. If the numbers on the Cgm are too good, or bad, to be true I double check. I find my morning readings are way off. I have a love/hate relationship with the...

    6.5 today….it seems like a struggle and I’m frustrated as I know I’m eating so very few carbs and don’t eat past 5. It is what it is… Gym was some legs, abs, a walk and a killer yoga class which spiked my sugar… Cold again today, and windy which makes it so much worse.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.5 today. Still cold here but….looks like Monday we’ll see some spring like weather. I don’t mind the cold as long as we don’t get a huge dump of snow… Gym was a 40 min walk, incline and then a heavy chest and back workout. Lunch was, once again, eggs and bacon with a cheese quesadilla on a...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    5.6 on Dexcom and finger prick. Happy me. Had flurries all day yesterday and about 2 cm of snow overnight. We really need snow in the hills so I’m no mad about this. Next week it’s supposed to warm up nicely. Gym was abs, yoga and a walk. Just finished lunch of bacon and eggs, with some...

    5.8 today. Sugars doing good all day. Think I’m getting a cold…geesh…I blame the germ infested gym. Gym today was shoulders, biceps and triceps, heavy weights. I was not coughing and I disinfected every surface I touched…I needed to do a small (ha, that never happens) Costco run ($300) to...

    A happy 5.9 today and good numbers throughout my gym workout …..I’m so happy, those higher numbers were freaking me out. Guess the infection has cleared up. Gym was a leg day and a walk. I had to do a bit of shopping and got some great deals at Walmart…strawberries at $2 pound, blueberries...
