9.5
but I coughed so much last night that I was too exhausted to get up and then when I did, forgot to take my blood so this is 3 hours after I got up and was moving about,slowly.

I could be just kidding myself but I like to think it could have been lower first thing.
Most likely lower. Keep going you're in the right direction. :)

Exercising lol
Another run in the 5s for me was 5.1. I use to be consistently in the 4s fasting but can't complain 5s are amazing and I know there are some people who would love to have numbers in the 5s xx

4.7 this morning (after showing a scarcely believable 4.4 15 minutes earlier)

That's what a Med diet with no bread temptations can do. (Gallons of Wine of course )
