I've been on here before but had stopped testing while I recovered from pneumonia.I'm still not 100% but I am a lot better and back at work.I've started testing again. My fasting levels are in normal range, but only just--5.4 in the morning on waking. Is this something I should be happy with, or is it better to try and get it down a bit lower? I'm not exercising at the moment as I'm still pretty weak. I'm also a bit anaemic and B12 deficient which I think won't be helping. I'm doing about 10,000 steps but no actual exercise. When I start up my daily yoga and maybe some weights and jogging, will that help lower the fasting blood sugar or do I have nothing to worry about to begin with? This level.os whilst eating a moderately low-carb med diet. 54g carbs yesterday and never more than about 90g a day, but also never less than 50g. I'd prefer to avoid a keto diet as I did it in the past and it wasn't right for me (I know many people.who thrive on it and enjoy it)I tested two hours after starting breakfast and it's 5.4, so I know that's really good news</blockquote>
