Mine was 6.5 and after two hours before breakfast 9.8 and rising, unsure why but this is the worst reading in a while, I’m gutted and dont know what’s going on.

Hello from Montreal. My waking BG is 5.3 mmol/L this a.m. (06:00 hrs EST)

.... and I had a bambino Pepperoni pizza for supper last night! I guess I'm becoming insulin sensitive these days.

A positive note: The nurse told me yesterday, when I went to give to my regular blood donor clinic , I don't look like the photo on my donor questionnaire file.

A disappointing 7.7 this morning not sure why it was in the 7's ... Had a sort of positive meeting with my DN this morning so onward and up ( downwards BG ) . That said out this evening for drinks and meal so not going to have a good FB tomorrow but on the whole things have improved greatly in the last 5 weeks

I have been on a rollercoaster for years and this is the best that I have done for about 2 years . 7.2 is not a bad number so take heart .

Unfortunately @Mcleanmr, you've replied to a member who has not been seen for more than 5 years, so @equipoise is unlikely to respond. You'll find lots more recent posts from current members on this FBG thread for type 2s.

Today's FBG reading is none too shabby @Mcleanmr.

Logging my FBG readings here, it must be said, helps to keep me motivated, especially when the numbers drift upwards due factors beyond our control like infection or injury.
