9.2 this morning, largely due to sleeping in on an empty tummy. I knew from the way my stomach was growling that the number would be high. After a breakfast of bacon (1 very small piece) and 3 slices of capsicum, and then coffee and laughter with a good friend, it is now 6.2 . No denying that a low carb diet really works. :)

Hello mates,
At a couple of the other forums I've frequented there was a thread like this one where we all sorta checked in each day, with our first cup of coffee or tea, and reported our fasting or waking blood glucose level and some short comment about whether we're ok with it or if not - why not?...

It worked well as a sort of 'first thread to check' each morning and post to.

I'll start.

This morning was a 5.6mmol for me. That's about normal for me

What about you?
My glucose levels have been sitting from 15.6 upto 23.8. They have been like this since I was diagnosed with cancer in June I am due a diabetic review on the 27th of September at my doctors surgery. The doctor gave me a ring but wouldn't tell me my blood results over the phone she said they need to see me face to face.

Mine was sitting at 16.2 since being diagnosed with cancer my level as gone up where as before all my results have been between 5.1 to 7.8. I still do the same things everyday nothing as changed but my level as now gone up I think the victozia injection I am on is not working for me as I don't lose weight I seem to be putting in on. But I can't be treated for my cancer as my health problems are stacked against me I have got to live with it.
