Welcome @Marianne67. Hugs for @JohnEGreen (bg) @garyclark82 (vicious man flu - hope that's all it is) and @PenguinMum. My fbg was 4.6 at 4.36 - yet to check what Dawn P has done I'll find out pre CWC and HFCB around 11.
coffee with cream, high fibre (18 gms) chocolate bar previously CCB - chocolate caramel bar. Recipe(s) available via PM.
Edit: It was 5.5; up but after 4k steps and almost 7 hrs.

Lousy sleep, but a jolly 5.6 this morning.

Hello all,

Fasting levels were 5.6 yesterday as well as today. Still no exericse (hey, motivation where are you?).

Welcome to this thread, @Marianne67 and @sharonlmartin.
Love your analogy of T1 and T2, @karen8967.
@DJC3 -- Great fasting levels (without wine). It seems the new exercise regime is paying off.
@garyclark82 -- Hope you will start feeling better soon.
Hugs for the bad night's sleep, @Pipp and @BrianDoc.

Like you said, keeping motivation going is the tough thing, not sure how long it’ll last.

Too many to list here . . .
8.4! Well this is rubbish…. Had COVID19 Booster yesterday and my root Dental work has left me in pain. Could these two factors raise my morning numbers. Not happy…..

4.6 via Swipey. @Estragon yes those two would have raised fbg as can a whole host of variables unrelated to carbs, fats, protein or diet in any way. @ultradad you continue to storm it; @DEBBIESCOTT great fbg and top stuff on the running. Y'all have a good day now.

Gentle Hugs. As others have said those two would seem the likely culprit. Hope the dental pain eases up. Take care.
