Morning all on this very grey day here! Matches my mood...feeling a bit despondent today. 8.2 this morning. Discovered yesterday I am going to have to cut carbs even more and I thought I was doing well.
Perhaps you are being too hard on yourself my friend? Wish I could get down to 6.2.
I probably am - I just can't seem to get my HBAC1 down below 50 - and the weight loss seems to have stuck!
Sounds to me that you are doing really well especially as I notice that you are not on any medication! I was doing well with my results under control, even reduced my medication due to low carbing and increased exercise until this year when everything went pear shaped after a virus infection and it's affects . I've now had my medication increased to where it was before and have resumed my exercise but it's taking a while to get back to normal. My fasting bloods are in the 8+ range but moving slowly in the right direction so have to keep plodding and await my next HBA1c in July. If I were you I would be feeling proud!
I empathize and sympathise Paula as I feel the same. Keep plodding my friend. It takes time but we will get there!Morning all on this very grey day here!

Thank you. I just wish it would stay there and not keep going up and down

The number doesn't really warrant a hug, but the tale of woes does.
We're delighted tooOMG! Only 2 full days in on new insulin and my new fbg this morning is.... 6.0 and 5.8 through the night.
No supper/liver block nor dawn phenomenon/liver dump.
If tomorrows is the same I'll be one very very happy bunny.
Novarapid to be tweaked. In fact I might be able to lower it. Only novarapid to be tweaked. I'm delighted.
Lovely news Geoffers. Pleased for you.
Hugs to you honey.Morning all on this very grey day here! Matches my mood...feeling a bit despondent today. 8.2 this morning. Discovered yesterday I am going to have to cut carbs even more and I thought I was doing well
I'd say that's not a bad reading if you have a cold. Can I suggest garlic capsules - good for catarrh and for killing the cold virus?
Ah the carb after low carbing phenomenon. Apparently there is a thread about breaking diet ketosis lowers fbg briefly. @Brunneria knows more. Pick her brains?
