Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

[Sallybear]

Well done @kimbo1962 great news.

7.0 this morning, a bit higher than in other mornings, can't blame liver dump as the Bydureon takes care of that, but I did have wine last night, and normally wine leads to a bit of snacking so I probably ate all of the wrong things, PLUS I was awake at 5am, another side effect of wine.

Don't forget to put a nice bottle of bubbly into the fridge to celebrate tonight...utterly fantastic that all your hard work and commitment has paid off spectacularly

 

[Sallybear]

Still I'm not complaining, anything is better than the old readings of 20+

I think we are all having a few happy tears for you...as Pavlos said. We truly care about each other and our setbacks and to hear of a sucess story like yours warms our hearts for you. Jolly well done my girl xxx

I really don't think I will make much sense at work today!! I will report back later and update my signature too! Thank you alliebee

5.1 this morning.......and........RESULTS ARE IN!! Shall I post here???? I'm actually so very shocked, impressed and proud and had a few tears !! Ok.....Well.....38 !!!!! I really am amazed at myself!! Trying to get ready for work here while wanting to dance around the room!!

Very, very well done Kimbo. You are right to be proud.

Clearly 38 is into the non-diabetic range. Have you considered how you might like to move forward with your medication? I'm sure your nurse will have her own ideas when you get there on Monday, but it's good to have a think in advance, so that you aren't hijacked, one way or the other.

Again. Well done!!

Brilliant Kimbo, very well done! Given your recent fasting numbers on here, I thought you would do very well, but 38 is truly fantastic!

Absolutely fantabulous result kimbo keep it up all the best

Kim have you seen the latest news from SouthportGP? Take a copy of his paper along on Monday (I'll post the link up here later, copy/pasting with an IPad is such a pain).

Here it is for anyone who hasn't seen it

I've been thinking ahead already and breathe, I'm going to ask for meds for a little while longer as I'm sure it's helped with the weight loss too (and certainly massively improved a leg ulcer I've had for years!) Of course I'm expecting to be told no but we will see!

I'm ecstatic cold ethyl!!

I wouldn't have thought there'd be any challenge to that. It's wonderful news your ulcer is improving!!

Brilliant Kimbo, very well done! Given your recent fasting numbers on here, I thought you would do very well, but 38 is truly fantastic!

Thank you rod- I was expecting a drop and would have been happy with a 45......I was speechless!! Still going to carry on lchf of course, love it!!

If I was you I would be too happy to sleep tonight Kimbo
