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

How long is the fast mentioned in these postings? Is it 6-7-8 hours interval after dinner and before breakfast, without any food in between?

if you want to do the intermittent fasting style with foods then the 8:16 meens you eat in the 8 hour window and the remaining 16 hours you dont eat at all:

for instance like eating between 11 o´clock until 19 o´clock in the day having one two or three meals.. low carb meals that is.
 

Frightened the sh.. out of me.
 
I imagine you to be heroically brave and far too refined to have sh.., more waste products which depart serenely. Do I have you confused with the other Janet - surely not?

Anything about me can’t be described as serene. You are maybe confused alas.

Thanks for your post. We had drain problems yesterday, so while waiting in for an emergency plumber I weakened for the cereal. I don’t usually have cows milk in the house but had bought a pint for Easter visitors. I should have thrown the milk away, ( I have now),as I don’t like cereal with soya milk which is what hubby uses. I have double cream in my coffee. Did have my bacon and eggs today, nice to be back on track.
 
Must I eat something sour for dinner to get this fasting BG below 6 ? Or keep a scale on the dining table to measure the morcels of food? This diet control is becoming very tricky for me, and I am not a great eater!
 
And what was the net result? Increased dose of insulin or metamorphic?
