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

    Thanks Bubbsie, going to try the same meal plan today but without the alcohol free wine and swap the times I eat my grapes and almonds - good news is I've now lost 8lb in total even if it's been a bit up and down! [emoji16]

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

    Disappointed in an 8 this morning as I was good yesterday and followed the low carb plan but I'll measure it a little later, before breakfast, and see what it's gone down to. Only thing I can think of is I had grapes and a glass of alcohol free wine after dinner, within my plan though and over...

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

    I've not posted for a few days, eating went a bit mad and blood sugar yesterday was 8.3! However, I've prepared and planned for this week so it will be better. Found I need to both plan what I'm eating AND prepare food in advance or I fail with eating. It's all good learning :-)

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

    @Granny_grump hugs and glad it's treatable x @Bubbsie hope your inr is in the right range x Me - 7.6 this morning but pizza and biscuits did that but I plead mitigating circumstances - I'm 53 and still having 'that time of the month'! [emoji23]

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

    Mine was 7.3 this morning but I had lots of sugary things yesterday evening so my own fault - once I started I couldn't stop but back on it today. Hope all those struggling with their numbers or other health worries are all getting better - even if it's slowly. Good luck K with your test...

    Type 2 testing programme - glucose meter and strips

    I've got my testing kit which I got via the DUK low carb programme, which is great, however they've taken 2 payments of £99.97 instead of just the one! Has anyone else had problems with them and does anyone have a phone number for them as the only contact option for them is via the web page! ☹

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

    Thanks Bubbsie, it was 8.1 this morning and I felt rather groggy and head-achy when I got up but I'm just assuming it's due to my body getting used to this healthier way of eating. It went down to 7.5 three hours later just before I had a very late breakfast of 2 scrambled eggs.

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

    Thanks Daisy1. I've joined the low carb programme, started it on Monday, as I'd previously read the Blood Sugar Diet book by Michael Mosley (?) and it made sense to me. I'm just trying to get to grips with everything but I'm lucky to be working in a team which includes a Pharmacist who has an...
