Morning all, BG was 8.3 this morning

 

[ianpspurs]

5.3 this morning which is as high as after meals over the last week or so. Twice just lately I have gone to a 1 meal day had excellent readings all day and a meh fbg. Its not an alert high reading but it just spoils my morning - however it is slightly lower than @Goonergal so bearing in mind her HbA1c not all bad! Was 4.8 @ bedtime so hoped for better.

One stroppy little madam. Fickle might be a better way to describe her lack of self-control.
6.0, well at least she decided on a round number. Onwards and downwards.
Have a magic day and don't let the numbers get you down

 

[SueJB]

@rab5 and so you should be. Enjoy the good days, this is a capricious condition which enjoys a laugh at our best efforts from time to time.

Now that's a word I'll steal

6.2 at 8.30

Morning...a mad weekend plus work leaves me little time for anything else...a more relaxed day today...quick trip to the anti-coagulation clinic...small amount of paperwork...walking 'phat boy'...then the rest of the day is mine...woke to a 4.9

good morning all

4.6 today

DN appt. this morning for latest 6 month results, I'm expecting a bit of a rise in HbA1c from last time because I'm eating more trying to level my weight off without whacking my bg numbers but I'm hoping for not too much

8.2 for me have a great day off the airport in a bit

Have a great holiday

7.2 this morning.

Bit glum, wondering if it’s because I wasn’t very active yesterday or because I woke later than usual. Will give breakfast a miss this morning I think.

 

[Motherhen2014]

5.9 this morning.

 

[ianpspurs]

@geefull I hope all goes well with the DN. You turn in really good fbg numbers and your track record shows you have clearly worked out how to deal with your blood sugars. Still would be very bad form not to wish you good luck!

 

[NewTD2]

5.4

@DJC3 You have spotted 2 potential causes and suggested a way to deal with the issue. Stick with it and follow Lionel Blue's advice - "Don't take it so heavy dear"

Good morning,6.7 at 5am.

 

[dogslife]

Morning all. Down to 7.1 at 8.35 am. Surprising as I did a fancy traditional tea for mum yesterday and succumbed to finger sandwiches, 1/2 scone, jam and cream and a slice of angel cake! . It was instead of my evening meal though.
Ickihun: All the best for your scan.
Karen: Enjoy your break.
Happy Monday one and all.

Good morning everyone
BG after Mother's Day and chocolate cake 7.0 could be worse, could be better, off for dressings changed and a visit from my son who couldn't stay yesterday. Will chat later! K
