Morning all on this very grey day here! Matches my mood...feeling a bit despondent today. 8.2 this morning. Discovered yesterday I am going to have to cut carbs even more and I thought I was doing well.
Perhaps you are being too hard on yourself my friend? Wish I could get down to 6.2.
I probably am - I just can't seem to get my HBAC1 down below 50 - and the weight loss seems to have stuck!
Sounds to me that you are doing really well especially as I notice that you are not on any medication! I was doing well with my results under control, even reduced my medication due to low carbing and increased exercise until this year when everything went pear shaped after a virus infection and it's affects . I've now had my medication increased to where it was before and have resumed my exercise but it's taking a while to get back to normal. My fasting bloods are in the 8+ range but moving slowly in the right direction so have to keep plodding and await my next HBA1c in July. If I were you I would be feeling proud!
I empathize and sympathise Paula as I feel the same. Keep plodding my friend. It takes time but we will get there!Morning all on this very grey day here!

Thank you. I just wish it would stay there and not keep going up and down

The number doesn't really warrant a hug, but the tale of woes does.
We're delighted tooOMG! Only 2 full days in on new insulin and my new fbg this morning is.... 6.0 and 5.8 through the night.
No supper/liver block nor dawn phenomenon/liver dump.
If tomorrows is the same I'll be one very very happy bunny.
Novarapid to be tweaked. In fact I might be able to lower it. Only novarapid to be tweaked. I'm delighted.
Hugs to you honey.Morning all on this very grey day here! Matches my mood...feeling a bit despondent today. 8.2 this morning. Discovered yesterday I am going to have to cut carbs even more and I thought I was doing well
I'd say that's not a bad reading if you have a cold. Can I suggest garlic capsules - good for catarrh and for killing the cold virus?
Ah the carb after low carbing phenomenon. Apparently there is a thread about breaking diet ketosis lowers fbg briefly. @Brunneria knows more. Pick her brains?
