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

4.9 this morning - again managed to squeeze in a walk before the rain arrived.

Met an old friend for coffee yesterday afternoon and against my better judgement I let her talk me into a slice of cake. Took the rest of the day for BG to recover to usual levels. And - I didn't even enjoy it that much - tasted far too sweet. Live and learn.
 
8.3 today, another night with a sore back still and lots of dreaming. Had another read of Dr Michael Mosley's book the 8 week Blood Sugar Diet and I'm back on some of his suggested meals. Looking for a better result tomorrow.
 
Good morning comrades I had a few spells of bad cramps in my legs during the night so not sure if this has contributed to my higher readings this morning of 8.7 @ 7-30 .
Wishing you all a great day
Hello, sorry to hear of your cramp. Painful.
 
My sense of taste has changed too. A happy lesson to learn, you don't have to "resist" cake in the future. You won't be missing anything. A very nice 4.9
 
My friend makes her own. No nasties can creep in that way. Can find out what she puts in it if you like

That would be good I've tried doing my own but never works out the same and I asked the guys at Morrisons as well how they do it but maybe they didn't tell all
