Usually same as you before evening meal unless I haven't eaten very much and then it might be in the low 4s.

My pre-evening meal number is generally in the mid 5s. I only fast overnight, have a relatively carb-heavy brekkie (abt. 30g carbs), a carb-light lunch (abt, 10g carbs), then I allow myself up to 40g carbs for my evening meal. I might have a square or two of 90% cacao chocolate as a treat in there somewhere and maybe some chia pud.
