5.6 which will teach me not to eat 2 satsumas at 9.30 pm.

5.0 today. First time in days it's been reasonably low.

Well done, Steve!

I was 4.9 at 06:30 - don't know why, except I ate very little yesterday evening. Also I tested when I first got up to use the bathroom instead of when I finally got up at 08:30!

Instead of eating breakfast I just had a coffee and then went into the garden. 3 hours later - 12:30 - I was 5.7! All that energetic digging. Just had egg bacon & sausage for brunch.

What a shame, I haven't got enough strips to do fasting tests any more. I think that before and after meal tests are more useful anyway.

That's pretty high Pilgrim. Reading your previous posts it sounds like you're pretty switched on and know what to do. You ok?

7.7 **** **** ****. It’s the Dawn Phenomenon, that’s it, the Dawn Phenomenon! Or my meter is on the blink! Oh who am I kidding? Bad day yesterday. I’d love to say I went on a glorious carb and chocolate binge but no – just grazing on ginger Nairn biscuits (oats! Low GI! he tells himself) while having to work long hours at the desk, a tiny bit more toast than usual, a tiny bit more pasta, a bit less exercise, slightly smaller meds dose because I didn’t have my pill-cutter with me. ****. The daily ‘comments’ box in my BG diary is too small to list any excuses. If I write a very smudged 7 it might just look like a 5...

5.3 today - after being sick last night, a shake less than I am supposed to have yesterday, and feeling so grotty the last couple of days I'm not too surprised.
