Great stuff!
Good morning Diabetes Massive. 4.6 this morning 35.5 hrs into fast with only double cream in tea and coffee. Currently on camomile tea so hope this doesn't wreck it. Who knew there was an egg fast diet? Very interesting read if only for recipes. https://lowcarbyum.com/egg-fast-diet-plan-recipes-weight-loss/
@Goonergal your stats will take some matching but I aim to give this another 24 hrs so end about now (6.40) Saturday morning @ 60 hrs.
@Canvaspics this is a marathon not a sprint and we all hit a wall at times. You are doing fine - could be like DJT and Kanye you also have dragon blood. Didnt manage to keep in the 5s yesterday. i caved and had a snack, 6 before bedtime. Will reset ... today. Cheers.
@ziggy_w We go to Spain in May time Costa Del Sol area weather usually very pleasant without being too hot and lots of places to get around to on local transport,we've travelled all over in nearly 40 years but this area brings us back every year for last 10 years. It's the ease of travelling around we're not allday sunbathers we love to see the countries we visit, where do you go on holiday? KGood morning all. Light supper last night after returning home late from work, resulting in a lower fasting number -- so 4.7 this morning.
@Jenniewren1958 -- Congrats on your lower HbA1c -- really well done.
@Granny_grump_ -- You are really doing well. Probably easy for me to say, but I wouldn't worry to much about fasting levels in the low 6s if your spending the rest of the day in the 4s and 5s. Where will you go for your vacation? Wishing you loads of fun, you really deserve it.
@Canvaspic -- No worry, today is another day. All of us will stray from time to time. Good luck and hope this strategy will work for you.
Have a great Friday all.
I had considered giving this fasting malarkey a go but I think if I did after eating only 600 to 800 calories a day for nearly two years now and having lost over 8 stone my family would have me restrained under a section 2 if I started fasting now.Good morning Diabetes Massive. 4.6 this morning 35.5 hrs into fast with only double cream in tea and coffee.

19.6 this morning, feeling miserable, add 2 unit taken novomix30, in stomach.
Thats better cumbs5.5
Have a good day peeps
Had bloods taken yesterday for HbA1c will get results next week
John, by losing over 8 stone you have done enough I would say and fasting is not for you. Fasting, fbg, bg levels are only part of the picture, this requires a multi faceted approach from people like myself. I didn't get into my condition at dx overnight and I won't get out of it overnight. I also won't get to where I want to get just by chasing ever lower bg numbers or bmi - this is bigger picture stuffI had considered giving this fasting malarkey a go but I think if I did after eating only 600 to 800 calories a day for nearly two years now and having lost over 8 stone my family would have me restrained under a section 2 if I started fasting now.
As it is I get daily lectures from my grandson on how I am too thin and don't eat enough protein.
5.6 today so even better than yesterday!
I took a reading just under an hour after breakfast though and it was 10.1
I normally only test after two hours, so is it okay to be this high after 55 minutes of eating?
Have to wait another half hour to test for the two hour one
