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

[Estragon]

6.3 - Very early start for me, England v India Cricket, but I’ll “Bank” this lowered DP after sitting in 7s.

7.3 today snap @Estragon, never thought I’d be yearning for sticky sixes. I could let myself get quite down about it, but I won’t, it wouldn’t help.
Well spotted @hankjam I think I’d have assumed they were common or garden thrushes.

Morning All. 5.7 after steak and red wine but probs not relevant, who knows. @DJC3 that doesnt sound right for you, sending hugs and try not to worry. I hope the fish effect catches up.

Be lucky to not follow on! It’s as if that First Test didn’t happen.

Hello all,

4.8 this morning.

@HeliGary -- Happy Birthday and really well done on your fasting levels.
@DJC3 -- Hugs for the unexplained and unusually high fasting levels for you. So frustrating. Keeping my fingers and toes crossed that they will drop back to normal tomorrow.

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?

Mine was 8.7 but that is down from 11mmol I've just started low carb so I've done way to go to beat your score
