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

6.1 this morning, cannot get into the mythical 5s for me unless I test at 3am which is neither practical or desirable. CGM always shows a nice low overnight but steady rise at about 3.30. Didn't think I was dreaming about carby foods every night.
 
5.9 this morning.

Its that time of year again, I have been asked to arrange my annual review. Going on holiday next week so wont be contacting them until I return home. I think I will be ok, but bloods are unlikely to be wonderful. I am pretty sure I am building up insulin resistance again as I am having a battle to lose weight. I'm just about living on protein drinks and Purition shakes. It doesn't seem to have done any good, in the last 3 months, I've only lost a kilo in weight. Ah well....
