@John_79 As mentioned above, here in my signature are the links to the Basic Information for new members and the Low Carb Program. I hope they will be useful to you.

I have a question. If I get up at 6.30am but skip breakfast when do I take my fasting blood level?

 

[britishpub]

Best time is at 6:30 you eat anything aka fasting.

[callyandy]

Probably the worst man flu for years, even Mrs w_f has it!
7 yesterday and 6.4 this morning

Hugs to you both, but a medal for the number. Stay warm!!

 

[callyandy]

12.6 this morning but was 10.2 before bed?

Welcome, not unusual to have a higher reading in the morning, I believe it's called the "dawn phenomonen" (sorry if spellt wrong,) There are various pages devoted to this, but I hope some clever peeps (@Liam1955 ) can point you in the right direction.

6.1 this morning info.you posted is very interesting thought .I may have over done the protein.Been out with only one dog this morning the other has a sore paw and was limping so I put her back in house.She is getting on a bit like me but think she may have stood on some glass yesterday. Take care Best Wishes K

poor puppy

Mine was 20.6 highest reading I've ever had but on gluten challenge and having an awful time and eating lots of gluten foods.

Welcome, I've given you a like instead of a hug because you are in the right place. Welcome, you've found lots of clever peeps with buckets of information which they will generously share with you to help along your journey. Good luck.
