Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

[DJC3]

6.1

 

[Debandez]

5.2 on waking (4.4 going to bed but I over indulged on the wine in the bank holiday sunshine....or I feel it might be a little lower). I had 3 large glasses of the lowest carb white which I read as saivignon blanc. Very nice it was too with lots of ice hope you all enjoyed your weekends

7.1 which was a relief this morning. After a couple of wobbly episodes last night, I had 4 water biscuits which took me up to 11. Last night ketones were 16, this morning they were 4.

5.7 today seem to be getting into the 5s more regularly so must be doing something right !

I tried about 6 very ( 1” dia )small jersey potatoes yesterday cooked in the morning then reheated for dinner later done the same last week with baby potatoes seems to be a good experiment so far

5.8 today, a result of a weekend away I think! Didn’t overeat carbs but had a lot of restaurant sized portions of protein!

Good one Jim, the spud trick is working for you as well.

When do you take the 6 readings?

Fasting, and before and after meals.

I have had a win with reheated spuds and pasta, but not in the amounts I used to eat. I have just started eating that lower carb bread in the last few days with success, which certainly tastes better than low carb wraps.

I cannot eat rice any more, even reheating still wacks me up into the 10 mmol/l so that's gone for ever.

Gotta shed load of blood tests coming up in the beginning of June, hopefully the hba1c will be down closer to 5.0% this time.

6.0 @5:00 - yesterdays trip to dresden (germany) was full of driving (thus sitting), shopping (thus staying) and bratwursts (thus white buns). At the end - not so bad!

Morning. 4.5 today.
