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

I didnt check this morning but felt dizzy and off. Had a very bad nights sleep up until 3am and got up at 8:30 am. Took some paracetamol as I had a headache and have just taken my bg and its 10.3! I am just taking it easy as my back is niggling, I am tired and feel nauseous. Cannot seem to get a break at the moment.
 
5.7 this winter morning….minus 3 upon waking. It was sunny but the clouds have now moved in.
Gym today was a 35 min bike ride (I increased tension…had me working hard), abs and then. 20 min incline walk. Got a few groceries and then home for lunch.
Going to make hubby a gluten free apple galette, some egg white buns for me and clean this house. I got the galette recipe from againstallgrains.com. Danielle Walker….i think she now has a new website but her recipes are still available on her site as mentioned. She has a great shortbread recipe, gluten free, but it does have some tapioca start in it which makes it rather carby…darn. I may try to alter it. It does have maple syrup in it too but I do have a sugar free sub I could use. I feel my kitchen is sometimes a chemistry lab. I’ve had many failures.

Watched a Korean movie ?
 
And the roller coaster continues….6.2 this morning. No reason. No carbs. Moody pancreas….
Gym was a 40 min incline walk and upper body weights. Blood sugar refused to come down.
Had lunch and it’s settled a bit.
I will never understand.
It’s fairly mild out so I’m heading out for a walk.
 
libre 5.4 after made breakfast when initially got out of bed 4.4 soon traveled up, putting lower down to compression low even thou no pressure on the sensor itself :)

morning spikes been getting a little higher maybe something to do with not able to go swimming as frequent silly winter pool hours :( doing a fair bit walking in its place doesnt seem to help as much. going to see if can goto mainland once during the week for swim. way too costly to do daily alongside travel time required :( roll on april when pools normal 7 day a week schedule starts and opening hours at quieter times of day 8am not many usually there. new weekend restricted hours its like sardines with a queue to get in
