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

Good Morning all! 6.9 at 0645 again today.
I think it was due to the LIDL Chilli Peanuts, I meant to have just a few but ended up eating most of the packet, they were very moreish.

Sneaky foods, arg! That's happened to me more than a few times.
 
Thank you! I need to get this weight shifting again I've still got a lot to lose. I'm not in a hurry, I just want to see the odd pound disappear
Hi KimG, I just want to see the odd pound disappear as well seem to have come to a halt in the last 2 weeks, really not eating anything different.
 
5.7 . I'm on holiday and so glad about that. My brain is full and a week off will help to clear it lol.
I'm going to go for nice walks , watch **** tv and be good to myself . Happy days
Hi jamrox, Enjoy your holiday
 
Hi all 6.7 this morning, can not understand the high today as yesterdays readings were 5.6 in morning and 5.7 at night
 
Up your dietary fat it gives you satisfaction and knocks out hunger. Cheese is best, full fat.
I do usually have cheese or peperami as nibbles, but was tempted by the Chilli Peanuts which were in the cupboard. I won't buy them again to avoid the temptation. I've just read the nutrition label and they contain 15.8g of carbs per 100g (4.2 sugar) and I ate most of a 200g packet. I think it is the coating that contains most of the sugar.
 
I love dry roasted but same thing for me.
Cashew nuts I have to stop myself eating whole packet. Almonds not so much. Nuts eh?
 
Morning All

5.8 for me today, after abstaining from the chocolate and the single malt last night.

Looks like that was a mistake.....
