Hi all, 10.9 this morning, awoke with that bunged up feeling! head cold again, had sore throat late evening last night. This is probably why BG still high and peaked.
Yes claire, please let us know how you go with next weeks Hba1c results.

Hello everybody
Here are my levels for this morning:

Fasting 6.3
6.7 @ 2 hours after a full fat Total Greek joghurt

I would have preferred to be in the 5s as I used to be a while ago. I don't know why they have gone up.

Hi Daisy,

IMHO there is no balance of nutrients in just a yoghurt. Try adding some fibre to help lower your blood sugar.

Hi Catherine and thanks for the advice
Usually now I add a small portion of tropical fruit (fresh without sauce) or raspberries and/or strawberries saved from the day before, to my joghurt but had run out today. I hope that helps to make my breakfast better.

Mine was 5.6 at 8.30 am.
Still 'diet only', so not too bad, methinks?

Hmm. Three readings this morning 4.2, 6.6 and 4.8. I'll go with the average of 5.2. Did quite a bit of exercise last night (and paid for it with some stubborn hypos afterwards as I didn't take any extra carb during the exercise ). Was 4.4 about 2.5 hrs after breakfast. I nudged my numbers upwards with a lovely, juicy peach.

Morning all.

I've just had my weekend away cancelled - my cousin has a cold - so you won't be having 2 peaceful days with me away! :lol:

Lovely day here - I'm going to do some gardening.
