Bg’s 6.5 at 6:10am. Not too worried as they usually drop into the 4’s as the day goes on.

Temps aren’t any better. -21°c at 6:10am with the wind it feels like -27°c. Not super cold but not very pleasant either.

5.8 this morning. Still better than the cold weather.

6.1 this morning. I can live with it for now. Quite chilly at -28°c with the windchill.

The cold weather is like insulin resistance. The longer you are exposed to it, the less it effects you. I absolutely abhor winter and would prefer to only see it in National Geographic but it’s part of where I live. On the flip side, summers do produce high 20’s to low 30°c temps so it do even...

I’m in Thunder Bay Ontario Canada. -20°c is uncomfortable but in the depths of winter-40°c without a windchill is quite common. We have hit -53° with windchill so it does get cold. In -20°c I can still go outside for a limited time in just jeans and a t-shirt. The older I get though, the less...

-20°c at 7:48am today. Bg- 6.1

More creatine at 11:00am today. Now at almost 1:30pm my bg is at 4.3. Fasting bg was 6.3. ETA; at 5:48pm I’m at 4.4

6.3 on a very cold morning

I did read about making sure to stay hydrated while using Creatine on the Mayo Clinic website. They also mentioned that it has shown to lower bg’s.

For the last couple of weeks I have been testing my bg religiously pre and post prandial as well as fasting bg’s. My numbers have averaged between 8.0 (fasting) and then between 5.3-7.3. I haven’t had bread or rice but did have a potato Wednesday. My eating has pretty much been one meal in a...

5.4 today. I wish the temperature was even close to this. Brrrr!!

@Goonergal one thing that may kickstart your weight loss could be to do the 24 hour fasts lunch to lunch. Sometimes meal timing is just as important. Awejob.

From 6.2 yesterday to 4.8 today. The temperatures are still dropping faster than my bg’s though. It’s-7°c this morning.

Like the snow, my morning bg is starting to fall. 6.4 today.

6.5 today. Not what I was hoping for but I’ll take it.

Good morning. 7.0 today. Not happy but it is what it is. I’ll just take my pal for a quick walk then head to work.

@chrisvw70 those numbers aren’t all that bad. What you should do is check you blood glucose 2 hours after taking your first bite. Ideally they shouldn’t go up more than 2 mmol/dl. If they are, check the amount of carbohydrates are in your meal and try switching them to something lower in carbs...

@Bluetit1802 sorry, I misread your post. You are correct. I will assume though that since my averages are now lower, my next Hba1c test should also be a little lower as well. Anyway you look at it though, the lower averages do provide plenty of motivation to keep dialing in my diet and avoid...

The 6.1 was my actual A1c taken in September. My meter was showing 90 day averages of 6.5-6.6
