Good morning all, 4.9 today.

Woke myself up sneezing this morning.

5.3 today

5.3, Snap. Found a box of tiny Lindt choccies, 20 to 100g. One is very lovely a treat, and obviously does me little harm!!

Good lord, forgive my ignorance, but is that too low?

Good Morning! A really good reading for me today, 5.1!

It depends on the individual - I don't have any issues at that level so it's not too low for me: Some people might have though

4.9 this morning.

Morning All

Somewhat disappointing 6.5 for me today - thought I had beaten the cold off at last and was hoping for a lower figure. Last nights fish pie might have something to do with it I suppose....

6.8 horrible night and 150 grams of carbs yesterday my own fault

 

[asparagusp]

New Year Resolution everyone. Always bear in mind that the target range is 4-7 so if your reading is within it, be happy!

7.8 although I did eat dinner with what I counted as 70gms carb but that was at 7.15pm so surely that stuff will have been out my system by 8 this morning? I'm thinking this metformin at breakfast must be running out of steam by evening meal to do any good at night

Also can someone tell me if when i'm counting carbs on stuff do I add the carbs of which are sugars to the other carbohydrate amount to make a final total for what I'm eating?

5.5 this morning. Christmas is over and now looking forward to the new year. It is scary, as each year goes by we are getting a year older and hopefully wiser.

In the nutritional data provided with each food item the total carbs includes the sugars. In short just count the total carbs.
