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

6.6 for me this morning. Im going the wrong way now. I wasn't going to post but thought I would to show others we all get higher numbers from time to time and we don't always understand why! The only thing different is that I've tested later o_O:wacky:
I get those random highs sometimes. Often they seem to follow a day that was more stressful. I must admit that I also hate posting them.
 
Here we go again team, with another week starting off at 7.8
This is my first post for almost a week. I have been extremely busy over the last few days and have watched my numbers climbing slightly. My job is quite stressful and it is believed by many that stress can trigger higher numbers.
Which is why I am such an advocate of the benefits of meditation.
However I really should practice what I teach ;)

(See my latest blog for some of the reasons for my stress)

14.6 this morning.
Completely my own fault. Went out for dinner last night. Had pudding.
Then realised that I shouldn’t have :(

But it’s okay. I did it. Can’t go back. Today will be as carb/sugar free as possible and as water filled as possible
You MUST be more aware of what you eat Before You Eat It... or not, if you truly are aware!

I did think that though my levels are been slightly higher past few days, can't workout why! :bored:
I have found the same Star. Ours is not to reason why? Ours is just to do or die... or 'just' lose a toe, or foot, or leg... or our eyesight or have a million and one other health issues that walk in our shadow waiting for us to stop doing what we know we should and catch us up.

Follow me I'm right behind you!
Keep on keeping on

12.9 again.
I’m so terrified if I don’t get this sorted they will put me on insulin :(
Need to make some more changes and make this happen. X

It isn’t just the insulin Flic. This isn’t a diet to look better. This is a diet to save your quality of life. You can do it but you are the only one who can control it. No one else.
