Bemused by a 8.4 FBG upon first prick this morning, so did a second about 20 mins later, when it was 6.3. I’ll take the latter - think the first was attributable to foot on floor, there was nothing consumed to bring on such a high figure. But I think I will restart logging the details of my...

Slipped out of the hive and into a FBG of 6.1 this morning. Not going to fret, at least not yet, I was late testing and it’s been a busy week Have a good Friday all

FBG 5.2 this morning. Well pleased with that. Have a good day all

5.8 FBG and a morning swim sees me set up for the day. Have a good one and hugs to those who need them.

5.7 FBG this morning. Happy with that. Have a good day folks

FBG 5.9 this morning, hanging on with @RD02 in the hive. Got my walk in yesterday despite the rain but on the move again today, airports, flights and unfamiliar food usually send my BG up. Take care all

Good morning, Sunday people. Back to the five hive, with FBG 5.6 this morning. Happy days! Didn’t get to my walk yesterday, raining as I was about to set out, but may have another go today. According to the weather radar, the rain will arrive around 1 pm, so if I get off by 10am, I should just...

I also had a late night, at theatre with a Wagamama dinner and an ice cream in the interval, so FBG of 6.0 at 7.30am was pretty amazing considering. [emoji5] Have been for a swim and a spell in the steam room, so ready for a coffee now. Can’t figure out whether the rain will keep off this...

Sunny Friday morning here, after the deluge yesterday, and FBG is 5.5. All good [emoji4]

Hi @chrispem, welcome to the forum. You don't say how long you've been diagnosed, but reassured that you are probably doing nothing wrong at all! Diabetes is frustrating and random at the best of times, but so far as I can see, its also highly personalised, because everyone's response to sugar...

Even if you have had better, I don't call 6.7 a failure, its still within touching distance of the good numbers. And no food, even chocolate, is actually bad, its just your system can't cope with too much of it due to a medical issue called diabetes. Give yourself a compassionate hug and have a...

FBG 6.5 this morning. No idea why the increase from yesterday's spectacular low, all the usual suspects - late dinner, work stress, foot on floor, etc. Oh and chocolate! But it was only a couple of squares and its my usual 90%, so not too wicked. :rolleyes: Have a good day if you can, its wet...

An astonishing 4.7 FBG this morning. Wet, cold and horrible again outdoors, the feline took one look and did an about turn, straight back to the top of the stove. I felt the same but I had to go to work. @Ashybang ouch that sounds awful! You'd have thought the dentist would have realised how...

Out of the hive with a FBG of 6.4 this morning. Possibly the roast parsnips for dinner. Went for a swim this morning, although my Apple watch was playing up and not recording my exercise and my computer is on the blink as well, just one of those glitchy days. Stay well and safe all

5.5 FBG this Monday morning. Working today but less on than originally scheduled so happy days. @LivingLightly Sidney the cockerel seems to do his 'Greet the day' stuff loudest when its a bright sunny day, he's not so vocal on the murky mornings. In that, we have a lot in common! But he does...

And it’s 5.8 from me this morning. Drizzle & low cloud mean it’s all quiet around my house, it’s like living underwater. Have a good Sunday chaps & chapesses.

@LittleGreyCat I went to NZ and Australia over Christmas & New Year, and was interested to see how the time changes affected my BG. Apart from managing the eating and sleeping needs on the journey, it didn’t take long to adjust. In fact, I think I left the dawn phenomenon in the northern...

FBG 5.4 this morning. Pleased with that. Just had 20 mins of full on cockadoodling from Sidney but thankfully he’s found the off switch and peace has landed. Discovered my neighbour has been putting out bird food, there was the most beautiful pheasant yesterday.

FBG 5.4 and it’s Friday! Couldn’t get up this morning despite the muted endeavours of Sidney the feral cockerel. So no swim and feeling a bit rusty from all the rain. Going to visit 90yr old birthday boy today, who also happens to be diabetic, have a couple of low carb treats to take [emoji512]

Another late post, FBG 5.2 this morning first thing. Didn’t bother yesterday cos in a rush and by the time I remembered I’d had a bath, got dressed and had breakfast, so bit of a waste of time. And test strips, that reminds me, nearly out.
