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

6.3….
Sunny and cold, but mild compared to the east coast of Canada. Gym today was a weighted ab routine and a walk. I feel a cold coming on and I’m fighting it! I refuse to be sick on holidays.
All checked in for our flights tomorrow, all timers are on the lights, dog to kennel in the morning, neighbours notified ( we have amazing neighbours!)….i think we’re ready.
Scavenging out of the fridge for supper…it’s slim pickings.
 
Fingerprick 6.1 libre decided to switch off couple hours early.

4 hours 10 min sleep . Tried Epson salt bath with lavender radox. magnesium supplement max dose codine with pregablin backs is very sore guessing was bad idea long walk prior to bath or swim other day catching up done too much?

Lazy day ahead taking it easy

Enjoy your holiday @Bcgirl
 
No blood letting for me this morning.

Woke up to six on libre

A brisk walk to the station to find I have a half hour wait. Thankfully Greggs are open , their coffee is available and served by a smiley faced operative.

Have a good day all if you possibly can.
 
6 by metre and who knows on Dexcom! Had a 3.6 reading at 3am that freaked me out, had some seeds and then an hr later was 4.9. Considering I was in the the lower 5s yesterday I think it was a compression reading. I didn't stab my finger as I was half asleep! Cbg readings at the moment very weird. Yesterday they were fine!
 
Six point six on waking as measured by libre

Sub six straight line through the night


I’m laying here in the warmth listening to a hoozy of a storm outside

Time for coffee methinks

Have a good day all. Stay safe.
 
7.2 this morning and not surprised. Unfortunately diet is very much in the enforced high carb territory and CGM readings yesterday not so much spikey but stayed high and looked more like Table Mountain than gentle peaks which is not good when readings stay elevated.
On the positive side only 2 more days to go before returning to a controlled eating habit thank goodness.
