Hi there and good morning 
Here are my BGs for this morning:
6.1 Fasting
Joghurt and rasperries for breakfast.
30 mins low intensity exercise as recommended by my Endo - first time I have done it and she told me to work up to 45 mins.
6.1 @ 2 hours

Thanks Didie
The doc's been fantastic - my post breakfast reading was 23.8, that was 3 hours later! She also checked my sugars and I was at the highest end of the spectrum, no Ketones though and no signs of infection (I'll need to read up on that...).
So waiting for a call (she's going to speak to the Diabetologist for guidance) - I won't go further as I don't want to hijack this thread - but there's further details and updates via another topic I posted in the discussions forum re: post op readings
If it wasn't for the meter nothing I'm feeling would have made me go the doc....and then what? Rushed to A&E? I shudder to think.

Morning all!
5.3 at 07:30 today.
Jest, I hope that's 74mg/dl (about 4 mmol/l), and not mmol/l!

fasting 11.2 better - had some 0% Greek yoghurt and 3.5hours later 7.6 woohoo. So things are looking a bit more promising.

Also got on the scales, and have lost another 3lbs despite all the wine and higher carbs during my relative-visiting last week. Mind you, I've stopped eating fruit this week. I was eating too much summer fruit for a few weeks, putting me up to about 70/80g carb, so I'm back now to about 25g carb daily.
And the sun is shining!
