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


A friend shared her Christmas present of a cricket match ticket and cream tea with me, I had a couple of scones and an ENORMOUS portion of clotted cream (no jam). No big spike - more than usual but not concerning. I took one bite of Victoria sponge and spat it out as it tasted so sweet.
 
Very interesting.....and positive!
 
Morning all. 4.9 @ 5.15 so I assume may have been lower on first waking @ 4.09. If I could organise myself to go to sleep early enough I could use this morning time better and I can't help feeling the decent number is more than wiped out by not enough sleep.
2 more Ember Days today and tomorrow - may not fast in the traditional way. Does anyone else actually do this?

Good morning all. 5.6 today. Still sticking to the keto diet (actualy 29g carbs yesterday). But obviously not in ketosis. Yesterday was 1350 cals and 12 mile walk. Thats should be enough, one would think. Anyway keep to the weight goals, and decide then.
Hope everyone is well, your BG align with expectations. Have a great Friday.
 
Morning all....first a big thanks to those who PM'd me. Its really welcome and a real surprise by how many people this stuff affects! My fasting blood sugars are 5.9 this morning. Have a great Friday !
 
Mornng All. 6.3 at 07.40 but after making bed, sorting the moggies flea medicine so maybe it would have been 6 like the last few days if I had tested on rising.
Anyway the storm has passed here.
Have a good day everyone and stay safe.
