Morning,
6.0 for me this morning.

 

[Freema]

hmm 6.9 today, didn´t measure yesterday , was ill , so maybe that is the reason why my number is so high today ... hope it will lower soon again... have a great day everyone

Illness always seems to raise my fbg and often raised fbg alerts me that something is not right with this body I haven't cherished well enough in the past!

Good morning everyone. I made a whole wheat pizza with lots of mozzarella cheese, anchovies, thinly sliced mushrooms and red onions for dinner. Had only a quarter of the pizza and this morning my fbs was 6.0. I suppose I should only pizza once in a blue moon.

This morning when replying to Freema I noted that my FBG levels rise when ill or beginning to get ill. Some research suggests this might be due to hydration issues at these times. Anyone know more about this - seems linked to this thread as hydration seems to settled me back to trend.

4.9 today following a couple of days at 6.0 (my own fault - too many carbs!)

Fantastic news and once again the benefit of testing, evaluating and adjusting where needed is made clear.

8.9 this morning. My readings seem to vary between 8 and 10 recently despite the gliclazide.

 

[Happyhomelands]

but was it worth it for the occasional treat? Do you know which ingredient caused the rise? Could you make it on a wholemeal wrap instead? At least then you could eat a whole pizza for the same hit. I've seen a recipe but can't find it now.

So true - if I didn't know what my BS level was - how could I adjust my eating for the day?! Knowledge is key.
