    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    I dream of having a steak pie and chips, probably why I got an inexplicable 7.5 this morning.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.8 this morning. Wondering what all the fuss was about with storm Floris yesterday. We had a mild breeze in Home Counties with a few spots of rain but that was all. My cultivated straw garden could really have done with some stormy rain. The advance weather warnings almost always make it sound...

    7.9 mystery reading this morning. Slept badly which may have something to do with it.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Me too settling back at 6.8 Much improved on yesterday. When it comes to chinese take-aways @debs248 I also find very little info on actual carb values but usually allow approx 60g in my daily calculations which is quite horrendous and probably the worst food choice that passes my lips these...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Out of the sixes and into the 7.2 today. Would normally say I don't understand why but in this case I know it was unfortunately a lapse into some late night drinks and a chinese take-away around midnight with friends. Went to bed with a 9.7 so fully expected a high morning reading especially...

    6.2 again today. Happy that numbers consistent and reasonably low but heading into BBQ weekend so fingers crossed.

    6.2 this morning, a bit better than past few days. As usual no idea why as nothing really changed but happy to see a better reading.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    @grantg I had a similar experience a couple of months ago. Didn't realise that a spin-off of going low carb was weight loss. I found I lost at least a couple of inches (5cms) from my waist. Had an incident when going through the airport scanners, having removed my belt and told to hold my arms...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.6 this morning. Off to the kiddies "play barn" this morning so likely to run me into the ground for later. Nothing like a restful day sadly and guaranteed a few knocks and bruises but that is what grandads are for, or so I am told.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.3 today. Expected higher as had a celebratory self inflicted wagon falling episode yesterday. Might pay for it over the next few days perhaps.

    6.3 and having been roped into going shopping this morning. You wouldn't believe how much I am looking forward to it (not!)

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.4 to start the day. Hopefully better weather in store and maybe even BBQ weekend. No more rabbit food, back to eating almost normally with family. Said goodbye to all my friends from Watership Down in the hutch, not shed too many tears though. Useful experiment but sadly no real lowering of...

    Did you miss me?

    Hope things looking up for you and well on the road to recovery. All the very best and take it easy.

    6.6 staying stuck in the doldrums of mid sixes but could be a lot worse.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.5 this morning, last few days of strict diet and looking forward to coming back into the fold regarding food. For me on a social level it is very difficult maintaining a very low carb diet and sadly I have not been able to see it reflected in huge improvements in BS. However I will continue to...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Had to get up early at 0200 to collect friends from the airport. Did a sneaky test and got a 5.6 which was fairly expected. Got home at 0700 after slight flight delay and tested again which was trying to be consistent and more my normal time, 8.2. Gutted as no food just a return journey in the...

    6.9 this morning after a good lie in. No sign of the 5's but at least it's stopped raining.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    I think the wagon was put there for us all to climb on and fall off once in a while. We can't be angels all the time, far too much temptation in life, just do the best we can. Lettuce, beetroot and peppers etc, still 6.5 and holding.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.4 this morning and still on the "rabbit" food diet sadly. In fact my neighbours actually have a rabbit in the garden and they feed him/her scraps all day long, I am certain the rabbit eats better than me. Thinking of hiding in the hutch one day and grabbing a decent meal.
