[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2201285, member: 493719"] Many post their fasting bg levels on dedicated posts. For the one I use most a FBG of between 4.5 to 6.5 seems to be normal, even for those pushing hard to lower their carbs. Personally, I think we all have our bodies own personal level that the liver tries to attain regardless each morning, in that dawn phenomenon, that ancient kick start to the day to get us up and ready to go hunt our food. Our bodies don't seem to trust us to look after it, and has its own self protection program, Hence how it can give us the DP, and can also resist, weight loss, etc as it adjusts our BMR to suit many differing circumstances So when fbg is elevated above what we expect I see that as our bodies allowing the excess glucose to seep out of us.. I do know for some who get up early but don't eat, the fbg can start to rise, and it is actually taking in some food, that stops the rise... Does sound counter intuitive..I guess a small amount of food, kids our bodies to think today won't be the day we decide to starve ourselves and try to kill it..:D [/QUOTE]
