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

Maybe I don't tolerate KFC as well as I thought I did. Hmm ...

I don't think the nutritional information on the packet for many foods is 100% accurate, and for stuff like KFC even less so.

If you put two pieces of KFC in a Lab and tested them side by side you would almost certainly get very different results, and I'm just as certain that if you took the same piece to two different Labs you would also get different results.
 

Great progress on the Hba1c, Stallen! Well done.
 
Morning all, an unexpected but very welcome 5.7 this morning. First time under 6!
 
That's brilliant, well done.
Thanks @TooManyCrisps

it goes to show, despite those high double figured BG readings when I was ill and having quiet a few Liver dumps, especially over the two months that the test covered, I still managed to drop from the diabetic range in this latest Hba1c in to the normal range, so I'm a very happy bunny.

I wasn't even going to have a Hba1c until the end of next week, but every dept I've been to at the hospital has been very kind and supportive throwing in various tests outside of their routine requirements.
 
That's brill. What food did you load up on?
 
Ignore my post. The answer to it is here
 
5.4 this morning . I'm having my HbA1C and cholesterol done tomorrow . Get the results on the 17th when I have my check up with Nursey. Have a good day all!
 
6.2 this morning! Really pleased with that. Had a bad relapse at Xmas & ended up in hospital with levels above 33!!!!
Back to LCHF & testing & I'm getting back on track -& I'm on steroids!
Been for a repeat Hba1c this morning so will be interested to see where I'm at.
 
Just look forwards your on the right track
 
Ate nothing from 8p.m. last night, just had a black coffee at 9p.m.
Went to bed with a Headache and woke up this morning at 8.15am feeling that I wanted to be sick. So stayed in bed till 8.50am
Poor you. Maybe your reading is high because you're unwell. Hope you feel better soon
