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?

5.2 @ 8.15am - delighted as had a day out yesterday at seaside town and had fresh salmon and chips with a little brown chippie sauce - which did spike my BS 2 hours after (expected) but I walked for hours yesterday so they did come back down hours later and good this morning/today or may be I was just lucky this time!

Morning all 6.0 for me. Hoped for a 5 but there you go.
@Debandez you’re doing brilliantly to keep those numbers while on holiday, is wine involved???

6.4 this morning. Ran late at night and had to eat blueberries, a coffee and a cherry tomato, afterwards to stop my BS falling. Guess it could have been worse. It was still really hot at 10 pm.

8.8 @0634 this morning. A wee bit higher than usual (6ish) maybe the warmer weather?

I'm not 95, I'm 18 with 77 years experience. HA!

5.7 yesterday, and 6.1 today.
Slothful because of hot weather, but happy that testing about ten to twelve times a day is giving me average of 5.8 for the last month.
