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

[ultradad]

4.8 today. Hope everyone keeping cool

Morning All. 6.2 the old fashioned way, 5.2 said Mr Libre. @DJC3 safe journey and take care. @Inchindown you have made the biggest step so keep going we’ve got your back. @Estragon that supper sounds yum!

5.2 this morning.

LST (Liver Summer Time) is at it again ... my average reading for the day so far is 7.2 and am currently 43 hours into fasting.

How very droll.

Morning!

So 5.7 this morning.

Slightly higher than I’ve been running recently but anything from high 4s to high 5s is good in my book.

So today is vacation day. Only away for 6 days and I’ve done a few experiments to get my coping mechanisms in place for not having strict control of my carbs but even so I’m expecting a bit of fluctuation.

As long as I’m not living in double figures the whole week I’ll be happy though.

7.8...... “Nothing to see here.... Move along.”

 

[DJC3]

Diabetes is a funny old thing: had the worst nights sleep for a long time last night, have a day full of stress and anxiety in front of me, yet I’ve come in at 4.9 - best reading I’ve had in a while. It’s a good start to the day and I’m hoping it’s not the only high point.

No rhyme, no reason: 6.1
But it’s okay

5.4 for me

 

[PenguinMum]

More LST here..6.6. @DJC3 hope your day goes from good to really good.

 

[ianpspurs]

Swipey was bedecked in 4.6 today. Bg likes a spot of hard physical graft. @DJC3 D is truly a mystery and I hope today will be another champagne day.

4.9 today, looking forward to the weekend for some rain to cool things down

4.9 at 6AM, almost 60 hours into fasting.

@PenguinMum :
"LST strikes again" must be the headlines of our little "BBC - Bloodsugar Battling Community" .

I have been reading a bit about the impact of temperatures on BG and by the looks of it there is a correlation between high temperature and high BG...

Have a lovely day everyone.

6.6. The only thing I can think of was a pitta bread I had last night with dinner at 5:30pm...

Winner for the blood result but hugs and well wishes for what will be potentially a day of stress.

pitta bread

.. 6.6 after a pitta bread... you did good mate... yours truly would have been hovering at 7s or 8s after such a daring adventure.

Pitta bread and only 6.6

Impressive...
