Have to admit to upping my testing as I'm drifting towards fasting.
Purely practical. As a lorry driver eating and drinking on the queen's highway can be a pita and fasting allows me to have a couple of black coffee's or water and worry about food later. Much easier. No post meal nodding either.
Today was first crack. Last food was 6pm yesterday unless a coffee with butter first thing (4.50 am, still at work btw) counts as non fasting? Gone really well.
First thing was a 5.6
11.30 was a 5.2
16.30 was a 5.0
Few hunger pangs but water took care of those.
Last test will be pre meal. Sub 5 would be ace.
