Glad I’m not the only one who wastes several strips and ends up with a holey finger or two! Took 3 attempts this morning and eventually got a result of 5.3Gave up after 4 goes this morning.
Did manage to get enough blood for the A1CNow test kit, which came back with a respectable 5.5% (or 37 mmol/mol).
No running today, rest day and my legs need it, I was naughty yesterday and went out on what should have been a rest day as the weather was beautiful.
Shouldn't have complained about being stuck in the 8's yesterday because FBG came in with a nasty 9 this morning
Oh yes, I will indeed. Thanks for that. And the same to you too. What a great Forum to be a member of.Have a great weekend all.
A better than recently 5.7 today. Intend to keep it that way. Have had late low carb breakfasts, then early low carb evening meals, last week or so. Lost a couple of kg, too.
In addition to a home A1c test giving a result of 5.9, which I believe translates in NHS speak to HbA1c of 41, all in all a happy start to the weekend.
Though I might stop recommending the mysur app, as a means of keeping track of long term BG . That is telling me my predicted HbA1c is 36.
Hello all,
4.8 this morning.
@HeliGary -- Congrats on your excellent HbA1c results.
@hankjam -- Hugs for the bad night's sleep.
@nutribolt -- Sorry to read about the food poisoning. Sounds awful, hope you feel better now.
@ianpspurs -- Hugs for the reading, I know this is a lot higher than you prefer. Hope it will be back to "your normal" by tomorrow.
@DJC3 -- Seems as if you are seeing fours quite a bit lately -- really well done.
Have a great weekend all.
