Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

A 4.7 this morning after a fasting day.

 

Aye I spent 2 hours trying to catch it so I made sure I ate the lot . @Tipetoo

 

5.9 at 11:00
Did exercise really a lot yesterday so my body has been so stressed out afterwards that I had a hard time being able to sleep woke up many times this night and tested my blood glucose at 4:00 just to see how it was affected ... a rather bad surprice as my number was 6.8 in the middle of the night , so seems my liver was freaking out and keeping my numbers very high in the middle of night

 

Thanks

 

I now eat mostly organic foods. My diet is 100% vegan whole food plant based so nothing processed or refined. I eat a lot or fruits.

I start the day with a fruit and green leaves smoothie and snack on fruits until lunch time. I usually have a salad for lunch. It will be a large salad as I cannot work if I am hungry and I bulk up the salad with different things like mixed seeds or a dessicated coconut or some whole meal pasta or brown rice.

Dinner would be a salad followed by anything I want as long as it is whole food plant based.

I can rarely eat out and have to make all my meals as ready meals are usually not organic and are made of refined foods like oils and sugar. I had to learn new cooking techniques to be able to cook without the ****. Fortunately there are a lot of videos on YouTube.

I can now make my own treats like chocolate made with cacao powder, nuts and dates.

I follow a simple rule - fruits on an empty stomach so I have to wait at least 2 hours after I have eaten anything before i can have fruits and wait at least 1 hour after eating fruit before I can have anything else.

 

Mine 6.5 after fasting and working out it went up to 7.5

 

A happy morning to everyone. Relieved that my fbs decided to come down to 5.4 this morning after a steady rise.

 

All good and natural foods, but where do you get your protein from?

 

I cannot explain the mystery and science behind this blood sugar rise. Exercise should lower it but in your case it did the opposite.

 

6.3 @ 6am

 

6 at 0600. out with the grandchildren for dinner tonight so should be interesting

 

10.2 for me from a hopeful 8.1 heading in the right direction attitude yesterday! so no clue here

 

6.3 at 5:00 am, must have been @bigjim19 huggis that did it.

They are tricky to catch, I hear those anticlockwise running huggis are the worst.

 

Excellent

 

The ones that run backwards are worse they're really fast wee beasties

 

Probably cross bred with the **** Oozlum bird that flies around in ever decreasing circles backwards, and disappears up it's fundamental orifice.

 

If that's they long square necked things that only come out at midnight I've seen them vanish very quickly into thin air

 

Tues 6.5
