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

Hi Everyone, I hope this finds you all in the best of health or as good as you expect to be in with the help and assistance, of the Forum and it's members, that is! As it does work.

Well my BGL's for this morning are a bit over the top, as at 07:15 hrs this morning they were 12:2, but I know why as I got into the M & M's about 01:30 hrs, not good.

Morning everyone. From out of nowhere fbg of 5.3 appears. Properly put the mockers on a bright start to the day and made me rethink what I thought was an excellent food and exercise day yesterday. Hope you all have good days - anyone coming in contact with me may not!
 
You are welcome, not sure how useful it is, there are far more knowledgeable people on the daily excercise thread.
I walk almost every day, and the excercises are an attempt to excercise the rest of me. Re your second question, how does it help with with BG; if i dont excercise for a few days my fasting BG will sneek up to approx 6.4 , and my daily average also around 6.2( 2 hours post meal). So about 0.7 mmol/L decrease with the excercise. There is probably a longer term effect also, if you loose weight, gain some muscle....that sort of thing.
 
5.2 today (5.7 at 3am) so I'm happy with that. It would have been lower had I not had a slice of toast with my eggs and bacon and half a cream eclair at my friends when I called to see her. But I'm very happy that it didn't rock my boat too much! Looking forward to another sunny day. Taking my dear old friend out for lunch and we might even get to sit outside! She is 89 and suffering with dementia. We do go over the same stories every time we go out but she doesn't remember bless.
