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

Well it's now three weeks of exceptional readings on the whole. 4.3 today and suspect I will be decreasing the Lantus once again shortly!

Morning All

Another 4.7 for me on this wet, miserable club open day morning....
 
Well done, that man!
You're doing better than me - I collided with a stray bacon sandwich this morning and now I'm running at 7.8
I'm wheat intolerant Debs so have the free from cereal with almond milk which does nothing to my BG so also have a pack of the belvita breakfast biscuits as there slow release
 
11.1 on rising at 10.00. I have shingles and that probably explains it...not that it very much matters to my bloods!

I'm sorry for your high BG @debrasue but you do make me laugh .... I'll be trying not to collide with chocolate today!
 
8.2 but "this morning" was closer to lunchtime , it was 7.3 before I went to bed at 3.00 am and I spent all yesterday after lunch between 5.6 and a peak of 8.2 which is a vast improvement on my early readings.


I would be very pleased with any morning readings under 7, its only happened once , though I am finding more and more of my day is now spent between 5.6 and 8 which is encouraging, I'm hoping that the morning numbers might com down naturally eventually as I lose the weight. I am happy to let that take a little time if it keeps me off the drugs.

It might even be the onset of shingles which has been messing with your BGs recently...
