Type 2 Life


Hi @Lindy1706
Same for me. Mine was 5.9 this morning so at least I've now said it here. Hopefully we can use this thread and also freely help each other. I've looked at the fasting thread and people are still asking questions and it does seem so rude not to reply.
 
Oh well never mind must be method there somewhere.

It just seems a wee bit soulless now.

Like you I shall post my morning figures here so at least I am still comitting to writing it down no matter how high or low it goes
 
Made it back from my Lake District break in one piece. Had a very enjoyable time in the company of a group of friends watching football, drinking beer an eating curry. Back on the wagon (and the scales) tomorrow!
 
I agree, when I read some of the posts, especially on "What was your fasting FBG?" then I feel like a complete failure because a good day for me is if the number starts with a 7 not an 8. But then I decided to just stop comparing myself and get on with what I could control, which is my carb intake. My liver really doesn't do me any favours in the morning.

I think people are more likely to post "good" numbers and then it becomes a bit of a vicious circle. I get pxxxd off if I post, say, "7.5" and get lots of hugs. I don't need a hug - it's an improvement on yesterday!!!
 
Your post was moved to a new thread as it strayed from the topic - fasting blood sugars. People are not limited to just a number but cannot go off and talk about other readings. You now have a thread where you and any other members can post weekly average BS results if you find that helpful. Now any member searching for weekly averages will be able to find them more easily.

The site does not gather your blood glucose results - no matter which thread they are in - and I am unsure as to why you would think it might want to.

You can still post your daily FBG in the appropriate thread and hold yourself to account in the new thread.

Take care

@TooManyCrisps you really just need to concentrate on your management. When you see others lower readings then take out of that "I can do that too" rather than "I'm a failure". There is a forum full of people rooting for you and ready to support you on your journey.

Take care
