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

Okay - this is getting ridiculous... Before bed last night (11pm) my BG was 4.4mmol/L.

Woke up this morning and checked at 7:15am - 4.0mmol/L!

Life is gooood.
 
5.0 fasting
6.8 @ 2 hours - a bit high for me

Yesterday I had my 3-monthly HbA1c - 5.3. I was very pleasantly surprised in view of my raised fasting levels. I think that means that my levels during the day have dropped which I am pleased about. (I can't afford the strips to test all day every day.) I am upping my Met in order to lose a bit of weight as the Endo wants. She also wants me to do more exercise :? and explained to me how to burn fat instead of sugar as I had been doing it wrong.
 
5.9 fasting

5.3 two hours post-breakfast.
 
Hi everyone :) This morning I had:

5.9 fasting
6.7 @ 2 hours
 
Here are my today's readings:

Fasting 6.4
@ 2 hours 6.1
= breakfast OK :)
 
11.2 but then I had a Laproscopy done the evening before and on general anaesthetic :roll:
 
This morning I had

6.1 fasting
Breakfast of joghurt and raspberries
6.4 @ 2 hours
 
10.8 fasting (day two post Laproscopy and removal of endometriosis/cyst)

(Just thought it may be interesting to post some even AM higher numbers following a surgical procedure).
 
Not so many people posting on here now...

Fasting 6.1
Breakfast of tropical fruits 60g and yoghurt 6.5 carbs
@ 2 hours 5.9
Not bad.
 
6.2 fasting

5.9 at 2 hours post-breakfast.

Husband is back from his travels for a week so he can do the morning dog walk and I can go and do serious walking without the stopping to sniff everything dogs.
 
I've been away since Tuesday and not done very well with either food, drink, or testing!

Wed: 6.1 @ 08:00
Thurs: 5.3 @ 08:00

Didn't test at all, Fri/Sat; :oops:

Today: 6.2 @ 09:15.

So - after an exhausting break visiting relatives, driving about 250 miles, lots of pain and stiffness, and not sleeping at all well, I'm back in my own bed :D and settling down to getting things back under control!
