Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

@JACKTHELAD
Your "Liver" post made me laugh and changed my mood.

I was motivated to do nightly Jog, thank you.

6.1 mmol / L this morning - earlier alarm and only marginally more sleep than the night before.
Failed to take a pre bed reading - it happens! LOL

We had a lot of crows appear from nowhere as well but these were going mental! We have a small wooded area next to our bungalow and it was full of the **** things.reminded me of Alfred Hitchcock film The Birds. They all disappeared after the eclipse

There are loads of crows here .... I feed them get quite close.
All the large trees have lots of crows nests.
But an hour before the eclipse the sky filled with them and yes Hitchcock crossed my mind too.
I have never seen so many!
They all settled into the trees and appeared to be looking in the direction of the eclipse.

Late on parade again 5.8 this morning.

Early summary today - will edit it with further readings as and when people post

Congratulations. Perhaps an idea for the mods to create a new Trophy Point.

Cheshire Cat......

7.7 this morning, not bad considering what I had to eat yesterday

Any alpro yoghurts are nice the strawberry and rhubarb can be a bit sweet. I eat anyone of them except for the nut or coconut ones.

ooh, yeah hadn't actually meant it that way but I imagine they are (not tried them as they are as high in carbs as the Greek Style that spiked me). Actually meant it in terms of being good for the ole bs

Wondering where that phrase came from "give the lad a coconut" Fairgound I suppose........ not heard it in a long time and NEVER seen it in pictures

Just popped in to say bye bye for a week. Off on holiday tomorrow (Alnwick in Northumberland). There is no wifi in the cottage, and probably no phone signals of any use. I'll be back in a week and will post my fastings for the week. Defo going to get withdrawal symptoms without internet! Be good everyone. x

Have a good'un.

82 mg/dl or 4.56 mmoles/dl

Soya yoghurt is the only yoghurt I can eat and nuts are a big no no cause of allergies
