Not being able to like beer anymore!!
I didn't test yesterday coz I was out camping.
Today - 4.6, which is excellent because it hasn't been the lowest of low carb weekends.

6.1 this morning, and that is after 7.4 bedtime (after a rather late, and extra large, low carb dinner)

5.0 this morning had a great weekend at Camber Sands. Had a few to many chips. So am really happy with sugar readings

Well this is strange.

7.3 this morning, then 7.6 an hour after eating and 7.6 again 2 1/2 hours after.

Looking back through my figures the last fasting reading over 7 was back in May less than a month after diagnosis.

No idea what's happened.

I haven't posted for a while as we've been so busy with lots of work on the house, so my testing has been a bit erratic.
Still having a problem with high readings in the morning - 8.3 this morning.
Good news is that I have now lost over a stone.

Sugar, in all it's iterations.
6.3mmol/L when I woke up. Had oatmeal for breakfast, took my meds. An hour later dove right into a 3.1 hypo... that was ugly. Hot chocolate and a Dex. Feeling better.

Congratulations on weight loss oldnevada. 6.7 this morning. Very unhappy. My looooong blonde hair is falling out in handfuls for weeks. Could make a pillow with it!

Hypo tonight, 3.5 hrs after I take my glyburide. I go from 7.3 before dinner (whole wheat pasta, olive oil) down to 4mmol/L 3.5hrs later. Weird feeling, just comes on you like a panic attack.
