What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

Good morning everyone
BG @ 4am was 6.8
I have to admit to a bit of comfort eating in last couple weeks occasionally but nothing to push my levels towards the7s
Work in progress! K
Have a good day everyone!

K...you're not in the 7s...6.8 is still reasonable in your circumstances...give yourself some leeway...you have a lot to deal with...try to step back a little...look forward to the holiday...which is much needed...build up your stamina...then 'blitz' that little monster on your return.
 
Morning...great day yesterday...paperwork & invoices completed...faulty goods packaged & returned...shopped...home lunch...then decide to take the dog for a walk...out for an hour...en route home I realised I had no keys...urghhhhhhhh...dropped them at the park...myself & other dog walkers looked for 45 minutes...telephone numbers were swopped in case they found them after we had left...no sign...resigned myself to calling family for their spare key...waited for half an hour in the cold...realising now I had no car key (having lost a set of keys a couple of weeks ago)...finally got in...found the keys on the kitchen work surface...forgot to take them:banghead::banghead::banghead:...despite the drama...woke to a 5.1.
 
3.7 for me. Didn't feel any symptoms. Had a jelly baby and half a wine gum, cup of tea and i'm sitting now at 5.1 so that's fine.

I have been eating keto since Friday so I think my Basal needs to come down even more. Let's bear in mind while eating Ketogenic, I haven't taken any fast acting insulin since Friday evening...

@Bubbsie thanks Bubbsie your right I'll deal with it after holiday and surgery, we are so looking forward to this break my sister, son and grandson are taking care of the dogs for us sharing the days between them so we have no worries there. Hope your keeping well and not wearing Harry out with his walks too much! Haha! K
