It was a little on the light side yesterday but I have plenty of on-board reserves that I can use :eek:

This morning has started well, I had some plain chocolate after I posted those figures last night and this mornings reading is 4.9

And tonight for the first time since I have been diagnosed with diabetes I will be drinking a little red wine, so something to look forward to

Edit, OK I have just done the 2hr later test, 7.8, what the hell...............

Yesterday was 6.4 and 6.3 after, I had exactly the same breakfast so what is going one????

Good morning,

It happens ... I always have the same breakfast, generally at the same time, within 15 minutes of getting up, and I weigh it all, so no difference in amounts. I vary from a rise of 0.4 to 1.8 at 2 hours. There is no consistency at all. It's just one of those things, and probably partly due to meter foibles.
 
4,4 before dinner, feeling a bit lightheaded but as I am about to eat not a problem.
