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

[asparagusp]

6 today but had carrots and sweet potato with my evening meal along with a little chocolate. Need to behave myself.

No no, 6 is fine!

 

[asparagusp]

6.6

 

[Nicksu]

An awful 7.0 (for me anyway) following a late dinner at the parents (steak and kidney pie - from scratch no less! and 4 small potatoes). Plus no exercise on Sunday and about 5 hours sleep). Bah humbug! Must do better today.

You deserve a treat, your readings are consistently good. Well done!

5.7, late reading, low for me, never been in 5's since started taking readings (about a month). I think it might be a blip....

 

[debrasue]

A disappointing 5.7 this morning. Ate too late last night. Lesson learnt....

An FBG under 6.0 is within the normal, non-diabetic range.

 

[Sauron]

9.8 due to birthday meal

An FBG under 6.0 is within the normal, non-diabetic range.

I know. Its just a bit higher than normal, which is around 5.0.

As I keep saying - faulty strip etc - Relax!

5.8 this morning. Fyi, I won't be posting my numbers for a little while because I am going to be away on vacation for three weeks and start once again when I return.

Thanks asparagusp, have a pleasant day, and good looking luck on your numbers.

I tested twice to reconfirm. I agree the reading was below recommended levels
However it was significantly higher than my FBG readings over the last few weeks.

Fasting today so will see where that gets me.....

Morning FBG 6.8

@jonbvn sometimes our readings vary and it has nothing to do with faulty strips, theres always a chance of variance with meters but if you start down the path of blaming readings on faulty strips you are just.messing with your own mind.
