5.9. Happy with that, but going to have first roast dinner for 3 months later. And no, I have no regrets.

Don't worry, you will able to control it. Here all are very friendly and supportive. Analyse food. What did you eat against 16

Rightly or wrongly my fbg was 5.4 according to the meter. Very uninspiring but could be much worse different - no idea what level is my optimal level. Cheerybye prick and tell massive.

Great series of fbgs for you recently @DJC3 . I do quite like avos from time to time

5.8 today so need to rein it in a bit. @ianpspurs if I could get an avocado like that I might learn to like them better.

Have been battling with testing strips this morning and diverse readings. Settling for a 5.6 Have a good day everyone.

Pick a number, any number. At 3:45 am I was pacing the floor with leg cramps, and toes were curling upwards. I did wonder if this was what it was like to be ‘cocking one’s toes’. BG 7.5. At 5:20 it shot up to 9:0, but I had eaten a salty cracker to take my mind off the pain of the cramp. Cramp settled and at 7:30 BG back to 5.6.

I can only think the couple of glasses of red wine last night caused the disturbance.

4.9 this morning.
@Pipp hugs for the horrible leg cramps, great restraint showed with one little salty cracker. Hope it wasn’t caused by the red wine though, what a blow that’d be.

5.7 for me

4.9 this morning..

 

[ianpspurs]

Good morning. Cheeky message on the meter screen - your fbg is 5,1 today - maybe baby How very dare it. Makes a guy wonder just how much to trust all this checking bg levels

I had 6.88 this morning, I'm often lower during the day but can't seem to keep morning figures lower.

 

[PenguinMum]

Morning All. 5.8 again today. Stay well, stay safe.
