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

Have a great break rhubarb73
 
I dont feel able to exclude veg and fruit completely though I havent eaten berries since they became unseasonal.
Really? We are still getting loads of raspberries and for a few years now we have had a few random strawberries into November.
 
4.6 bg on a very cold frosty morning here in the West
@ianpspurs have a brilliant wedding anniversary. I love celebrations - enjoy your day
@rhubarb73 enjoy your short break in Lisbon it’s on my list I’d love to visit the city have fun with your family your bgs will await your return! We are up your way again on Tuesday at mums and gather it’s half term as well as Halloween!
Hope everyone has a good day today my heating is on but determined to get out there too as think once sun gets going it’s going to be a lovely day.
 
Thanks @shelley262 I'm not overly big on celebrations but my heart is set on some big summer barbeques with all our boys and grandchildren. My birthday is almost midsummer day so perfect time . Without what is now the full compliment and anywhere but here will not properly work for me and the boys see this as THE place we all belong. All 3 of them helped construct a playground spread around the garden specifically for the purpose of recreating for their children what my parents did for them.

I get to add a new name to the list of 25 countries I have visited in my life - Portugal. Not super exotic I know.
Not "super exotic"? IMO every country is super exotic because there's so much to learn, see, and do! Portugal sounds lovely. Have an amazing time!

just read the vitamin C article @Goonergal fascinating the body is an amazing thing how it adapts and changes when it’s fat burning rather than sugar burning. I couldn’t do carnivore but it’s fascinating how the body can function well just on meat
 
Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and those transgenders out there. Question if a foot the ball player is a transgender which changing room do they use?
A gentle and surprising 6.0 awaited me this morning.

Well folks it's been an interesting week for all of me's and my mates chaos and mayhem. Luckily the police were not involved, but Mrs J was not impressed and conficated my catapults.
Have a pleasant day folks and be kind to a traffic warden.
 
5.3. My levels have been all over the place lately. From 3.8 to 6 to 4.9, all within a few hours. Not sure what's going on. Bad BG! No biscuit!

Happy Saturday! Still dark here in Toronto, Canada.
5.3 seems fine from here and a 6 for the top number is none too shabby either @neithskye

Thanks. It's just for about a month I've been consistently in the 4.2-4.9 range now suddenly I'm getting these spiky up-and-downs - within a few hours. Just weird is all. Which of course makes me obsessively test.
 
Great number @geefull stay warm. Base layers for me these days gotta look the pratt part

Seen this and thought of you bubbsie
 
Good morning all. Was out last night and might have had just a tad too much red wine. I am sure it helped with the sweet potato fries, I had ordered. Woke up at 4:30 and blood sugars were 4.6. Went back to bed after having a Wiener sausage because I was hungry and got up again at 10:00, blood sugars were 4.8.

@ianpspurs -- Happy wedding anniversary to you and your lovely wife. Have a fun day.
@Rhubarb and @Emma_369 -- Enjoy your time off work.
@Freema -- Fabulous bg readings this morning. So happy for you.
@Chronicle_Cat -- So sorry about what happened with your mother. Thinking of both of you.
 
Have a nice time.
 
Happy Anniversary to you both. Hope you have lots of fun.
