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

Can I ask a question? What would the target range be for overnight fasting BM for a diet controlled Type 2?

I like a number around 5.0 mmol/l, but anywhere between 4.0 (if you're lucky) and 6.0 is doing well IMO.

Thank you. I've had type 2 for around 10 years now. At first I was really good but that slipped quite badly. Ironically it's the short term danger of Covid 19 has helped me refocus myself on tackling the long term risks of diabetes. On 15 April my fasting BM was 15.6. This morning it was 9.2. Still some to go, but definitely heading in the right direction
