My normal since going on a low carb diet is about 5.6 but yesterday I had a visitor and we partook of too much(4 glasses) red wine and I also had a fruit salad dessert so 7.6 this am. I am back to my rigid low carb diet,though.I am not a big wine drinker and I don't usually have dessert so this was an occassion.Hello mates,
At a couple of the other forums I've frequented there was a thread like this one where we all sorta checked in each day, with our first cup of coffee or tea, and reported our fasting or waking blood glucose level and some short comment about whether we're ok with it or if not - why not?...
It worked well as a sort of 'first thread to check' each morning and post to.
I'll start.
This morning was a 5.6mmol for me. That's about normal for me
What about you?

Hi @grandadfroggy and welcome to the forum, and well done to your better half for keeping you in check. Readings of 5-7 are good.Good morning, this is my first time posting as still trying to get to grips with things. Due to other health issues things have been a bit topsy tervy for me, thankfully the old dear who used to be a nurse, and a **** good cook keep's me in check - literally. Anyway she said to say I am averaging between 5 - 7 during the course of the week (depends if I get up and have a cheeky piece of fruit when she is asleep !!!! ). Hope to check in again soon, at the moment I feel positive and quite good with myself. Thanks old girl for you help.
