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

Libre 4.7 fingerprick 5.8 breakfast then off a short walk around the block. Back across to mainland again today totally forgot needed to take someone to hospital wouldnt of went yesterday if remembered.

Forgot to post yesterday libre 5.0 was in a rush to catch the first ferry left house at (six) silly o clock in the morning. Grabbed some stuff from sales. Holland and barretts bought some zero carb stuff.

https://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/holland-barrett-zero-carb-tagliatelle-270g-6100005688 plan on using that for spag bol for this evenings dinner.

making some brownies later on Go Low Baking Low Sugar & Keto Chocolate Brownie hopefully their nice! daughters moaning i dont do baking as much anymore. Surprised one bag shopping from there came to just over 60 quid :O hopefully some other items will enjoy.

Their zero carb noodles were actually pretty decent, had with some chives own curry mix of spices, chilli flakes, etc better tasting than a packet of supernoodles.

enjoy your day :)
 
Still alive….
6.4 this morning, has been higher, up to seven, over the past week. Seems there’s no rhyme nor reason.
Numbers ok during the day but honestly I’m testing way less. I continue eating well so I really don’t see the need. If I feel weird I might check.
The world is freaking insane….
Very mild and dry winter here, although back east the snow is heavy. Mexico next Monday and I can hardly wait. I need a reset. I adore Mexican culture and look forward to the music and festivities.
I continue with the gym and an advanced yoga class on Saturdays…it makes me humble…
Might I say you are all doing fantastic!
 
Not such a good day today, bloods 6.8 and its my own fault. I made some bread yesterday for my OH. I don't usually eat bread but used to Iove home made bread and thought I have been having some reasonable blood results lately, lets try it. Stupidly, I had quite a large bread bun. 1 hour later, bloods were 7.1 which seemed OK, 2 hrs later bloods were 9.5. What! I think this morning's bloods are still reeling from the effects of over indulgence. Wouldn't care I didn't really enjoy it as much as I remembered. Let's see how long it will take to get back on an even keel. :)

- let us know please. Before dx 10 years ago I’d bake almost every day. Not had a slice since but am sometimes tempted by the new slow rise sourdough’s!

I love bread I still have some every day but only a little because it certainly doesn't love me :(
