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

[DJC3]

5.8 still hanging in there. Hugs for being trapped in the sticky sixes again @PenguinMum.

5.8 today, been running, left leg still not quite working properly, but it will do.

Big son got his results yesterday a 2:1 in his Masters in Physics, so he's a happy chap and so am I.

Congratulations to your big son on his result and you for running with sub-optimal bio-mechanics - don't push too hard. @PenguinMum, very kind of you but my care is probably oh so very meh. @DJC3 SWMBO has booked a holiday to Cyprus in Nov 'cos I already hate UK winter by then. Hence passport search.

Congratulate your son for me, I know how hard he must have worked - and watch that leg of yours! Where did he study out of interest? My son did a physics degree at Durham (a few years ago now), when a job didn't fall into his lap, he ended up doing a PhD. at St Andrews. Does your son know what he wants to do in the future?

I forgot yesterday but today was 4.8

 

[Andydragon]

6.8, bit high for me, I know why.
Am sure it will get back to my normal soon enough

5.9.

Finally getting dialled back in using basal only.

Of course there’s less flexibility this way but 1 injection a day rather than 4 is a good thing.

5.5 at 6AM. Overnight average has been 5.8.

I ate last night as I was feeling a bit cold at about 18 hours of fasting.

No carby food as such and my total carb intake may have been about 7 to 10 gms but I guess it kind of explains the reading as it is not after a fasting day.

Have a great day everyone.

4.8 for me

 

[PenguinMum]

Morning All. 6.5 again my now normal.

 

[DJC3]

5.9 so still hanging on to the fives by the skin of my teeth.
@HeliGary congrats to your son, that is a fantastic achievement, you must be chuffed to bits.
Well done @DisFanJen looks like you are on top of it.

 

[ianpspurs]

5.0 for me. May not like like it but there it is.

 

[Scotsdude]

5.4 for me at 7.00 am this morning.

 

[Ryhia]

Near Windermere. Postponed from last summer so I hope there isn’t another lockdown that stops us going again.

Lovely area - we’ve stayed in Far Sawrey and Ambleside previously but decided to try the Northern Lakes this time

 

[Daphne917]

Have been between 5.3 and 5.6 this week so not too bad.
