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

[Daphne917]

5.3 for me this morning

 

[nutribolt]

4.9 on finger prick, 3.8 on libre...

@ianpspurs you and I changed last sensor on same day so I am assuming you are on new sensor too... perhaps its giving higher readings than what is really the case while mine is giving lower... have you verified with a finger prick?

Bloods today: 6.7
Not surprised, went a bit nuts yesterday and finished off my Chocolates. Blew carbs and calories... bad day! Still, no point dwelling, onwards and upwards!

6.1...

3.9 today. Have a great day.

6.5 this morning even without the hot chocolate last night.
Libre a lot lower but I never trust it for fbg.

Hello all,

5.1 this morning.

@DJC3 -- Hugs for the wonky blood sugars.
@nutribolt -- I am not a libre user, but have read that there may be depression lows (artifically low readings) at night when you sleep on the arm with the sensor.

5.9 . Not overindulged with food , but perhaps slightly with drink. Also underindulged in exercise.
Will remedy all things today.

6.0 for me

 

[ianpspurs]

Today I swear Swipey bounded up to me @ 5.21 with a 4.3 shaped stick in its mouth . Probably just a hologram.

8.4 this am

5.7 today

 

[PenguinMum]

Morning. 6.6 despite a good walk and very careful eating.

 

[Andydragon]

Back to my normal: 4.8

 

[nutribolt]

4.2 on finger prick and 3.1 on libre

I have been 84 hours into fasting at this point (last calories intake was on 26/12 at 20:30) and am feeling not just fine but absolutely tip top although I have been given ultimatum last night by LadyNutribolt that I have to break the fast today or else... so I will be easing into solids during the course of the day thus making the readings today and tomorrow very interesting indeed. I will ofcourse keep everyone posted

11.3. ‍

So high, but I did have a bottle of Prosecco and a big bag of crisps last night. I don’t really drink, so haven’t seen the effects it has on my bloods before.
