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

Hi all, 4.9 this am 4.4 last night must have been all the ironing I did yesterday for my daughter HA! HA!
 
Any time you want to come and do mine, Arlene, I'd be happy to let you!
Do you know if I lived near you I would , not many people love ironing its a good job I do. I do my mother and fathers, mine and my daughters, she has 4 children the ironing board is a permanent fixture in her utility room.
 
10.5 this morning

9.4 at bedtime

This is with my new SD meter which is about 2 or 3 points up on my old Freestyle Lite meter so I'm just going on the rise at the moment and not the actual numbers. Well I will go on the numbers once they are down to a more acceptable level.lol
 
More strange results to declare:

4.4 on Saturday
5.6 on Sunday
5.2 on Monday

and a 4.9 this morning.

I think these prove how unreliable our meters are, and most of all how we shouldn't get too hung up on one or two results that are higher than expected.

I know what you mean. I was actually thinking of taking three days and do exactly the same food and exercise each day, so theoretically at least the numbers should be identical. But then I thought, " :***: get a life! Don't make too much of small differences.". The meter is only a guide and it can be 15% either way. Allegedly.
 
7.7 this morning, so heading down again. Lots of little walks in the playpark at the back of the house yesterday, so the same today.
 
7.4 at 7am, then after breakfast which included 2 coffees with milk I'm seeing 8. I'll take that for now.
