Managed a 5.8 today but it is much earlier than I usually wake up so I’m sure it’ll rise. I just wanted to record it before it does.

New week and 4.7

6.9 on Smart AQ meter, second blood drop same finger 8.1 using Gluco Navii. Taken at 0630.

Tried various things food wise yesterday for my birthday so unexpectedly a bit high.

Now working on collecting some data to do with first and second blood drops and two different meters, for what it may be worth.

Off to work fairly early to wait for the fog to clear .

Have a great day everyone.

Sorry should say ‘not unexpectedly a bit high’

5.2 on Swipey today absolutely no joy in that BUT new granddaughter arrives later today so let's get things in perspective, eh? @DJC3 seemingly small wins in tough times are massively important.

7.0 at 5:00 (was awake so tested)
4.8 at 09:00(still fasting)

51 today , a rare day off.

Heading out for a run in an hour or so.

Waking with the family if we can persuade 16yo daughter out of the house, she has promised so there is hope, I may send a crack team if cleaners into her bedroom if she does leave it .

Happy Birthday

[PenguinMum]

Morning All. 6.1 for soggy Monday.

 

[nutribolt]

5.3 at 6AM and 5.3 just now 2.5 hrs later on finger prick. Overnight average on Xdrip and Tomato is 5.5 and 5.2 respectively so looks like eating day yesterday has not caused any upheavals and today will be a fasting day anyway.

Have a great start of the week everyone.
