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

BG this morning was 6.2. Been eating more than is good for me or so I thought all morning and afternoon. My BG now is only 7.2 which is a complete enigma.

The only plausible conclusion i can draw is that it is not how much you eat but what you eat that raises your BG. Very annoying when all the food that I really enjoy is the stuff that sends my BG through the roof.

 
That's good. Still in Nigeria enjoying the sunshine
@heavyd lucky you we've had the lot today freezing winds hail snow thunder and lightning,cannot get much worse, would love to feel the sun on my back instead of all this cold weather,stay put until later in year! But no guarantee it will get much better you know what our summers can be like! K
 
I know exactly what you mean, I love home made pea and ham soup but it shoots my BG through the roof! K
 
Thanks Glenmac hope your hubby carries on getting his strength back and you both stay well,I will be ok I'm sure they will be able to treat it permanently! K
@WuTwo I'm glad you have a good husband I too have one and we are lucky to have them, we do what it takes to make our lives a better place and I respect your hard work and your husbands support of you it wasn't a reflection on your relationship,just how we share our lives each person deals with things in their own way.!

good morning all

5.0 today

then it was down to 4.4 before breakfast 35 mins later, I haven't noticed having dp before but I had virtually nothing to eat after a big Sunday mid afternoon dinner yesterday, I might have some supper next time and see if keeps things more level.

Snow covering everything this morning and we have to pick up Mr gee's mum who has to be at the phlebotomists at 10.10 for her yearly blood tests to be taken, I have the opticians at 10.30 and then a hospital clinic appt at 15.00 today so it's going to be a bit of a stop start day. Stay safe everyone.
 
Take care when your out and about today roads not good in places! Good luck with your appointments! K
