8.2 before bed was 2 hrs after eating a very poorly cooked battered fish (didn't eat the batter) but had the 7 or so chips and mushy peas served with it as not had much to eat all day due to travelling! 6.2 this am, phew :). Hope you manage to get your sugars down Nomistheman.

Good morning. I washed hands 10.5! So I washed hands again repeated and 7.7. I must admit the 10.5 was a shock but I've read on here about washing hands and repeating and it certainly helped. :)

Morning All

Another slightly high result of 6.8 this morning, hopefully explained by fighting a bit of a cold as I have made no conscious changes to my routine :(

Bullies, discrimination of any kind, bad manners, parents who let their kids run amok & spoil things for everyone else, unkind spiteful people, being a clumsy clod, toast crumbs in the bed, cold feet!!

It's a bit like a lottery sometimes @Tim55. We all have those "what's going on" readings. I have a cold too, and the first few days of it, my FBG's were up in the high 6's too. Get well soon.

Good morning all. I had a fasting reading of 5.5 this morning after a reading of 5.6 at bedtime last night.

4.8 this ... er ,, afternoon. I woke about 9-ish, mooched on the internet for a while then went back to sleep until after midday!!

I don't normally sleep in, but I guess sometimes you just need it.
