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

6.1 this morning after 14 hour fast at 0730.

I’ve been running, opted for treadmill, I got kitted up walked outside and turned around and came back in again , I really can’t stand running in strong wind.

Did program 4 on the treadmill for half an hour , trying to stay slightly ahead of the Missus, who has now also started treadmill running earlier this month.
 
Good morning all,

4.3 this morning.

@DJC3 and @Pipp -- Great numbers -- glad the blood sugar effects of the vaccination are wearing off.
@PenguinMum -- Keeping my fingers crossed for your vaccination and that the effects on blood sugar will be minimal for you.
@nutribolt -- Great job on your fasting levels (both, when fasting and when not). My impression is they are getting lower week by week.
@Nirac -- Welcome to the thread.

5.3 today.
I was blaming myself too @Pipp and I’m interested to see what happens after 2nd dose - at least we’ll be forewarned.

I had unexpected, erratic results as well after my vaccine but as my bloods never rose above the high 6s (to my knowledge) I couldn't put it down directly to the vaccine however I did wonder, so agree it will be interesting to see what happens after the second vaccine. Great that you are seeing your bloods at more comfortable levels.
 
Yes more or less as soon as I get up and obviously before food

Thanks @ziggy_w ... yeah I have been observing that myself but was just afraid to speak it out loud as I was fearful I might jinx it.

I love my fasting days given they play to my strength of being lazy.
 
Great levels @nutibolt . Fasting is obviously agreeing with you in every way.
Thanks @ziggy_w . @Ryhia it’s interesting to see you had erratic post v results too. We can watch each others next fbgs with more than usual interest.
@PenguinMum hugs for return to sixes - it’s only just though and could quite easily be a 5.9 with the margin of error. Yes I find Libre takes a day of two to settle, hope it all goes well tomorrow.
 
Ok, so figure me this one..
7:00 am BG 6.5. Stayed in bed. Headache. No food, drink or meds before 8:15 am when BG was 4.7., before putting a foot on the floor. Maybe DP didn’t hang around for too long?
 
Thabk you will do cheers
 
6.6 Went to bed on a 4.9. So I was ever hopeful for this Overnite Sensation (Zappa Fans Freakout!) and get this stoopid Camarillo Brillo??? Of yeah, and the English Cricket? Don’t even ask: “It’s the Slime oozing out from your TV Set”
 
Morning All. 5.6 on the meter, Libre still reading high at 5.9 whereas previous models measured lower than meter usually. Only wearing it for trends after my jab today but disappointed nonetheless. Will continue to put my trust in old money.
