If I read this post when I first joined the thread, I would have set my alarm for 3am and had toast with jam for sure!

Hi,

You can PM members if unsure why you got a hug or like.
You're welcome with other "full on chat" thread contributions, regarding shopping trips, traffic & campsites.
There are diet topics for bread, small hour snacks, salads & "taste the difference" foods...

We politely ask to stick to FBGs, or posts will be removed. :)

Thanks in advance.

Being diabetic lol.
Yes, you should test immediately on getting up. Taking a shower or any other activity will make your BG go up. :)
I thought moving made it go down? I’m just getting to grips with this. X
