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
 
After a small slip up last night :

6.1mmol/L
9.4mmol/L (after 1hr)
 
7.2 this morning. I guess the positive effect of my exercise on Wednesday has run out.

Morning all.
 
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;

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 and settling down to getting things back under control!
