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

5.6 this morning. Run up to family visit doing a deep clean. Going to be fun all day, NOT!

@Ryhia , I clean after my lot have been! No use having to clean up twice in the same month! ;)

Quite happy with what I am hoping will be a period of sticky sixes this morning with a 6.2. Just a half mile walk today, as still recovering from my exertions earlier this week.
Thank you @PenguinMum for the encouraging words. It has taken quite a while to get back down to sixes. Just have to keep striving, but not depriving. If I want a comforting slice of toast I will have it!

Yeah, it’s very disheartening. These stubborn plateaus don’t have many pathways downwards. But you’ve been lower, and guess what, you’ll be lower again. But yeah, Debski, you’ll be there again. Big Picture!

Mine are like that at the moment - for me time of year, lack of sleep and mental health :rolleyes:
 
Good morning
Larry says 6.9
Contour 7.4
No rhyme or reason for any of these numbers, when I think I’ve cracked it another curve ball comes along, just waiting for Dawn p to put in an appearance
Intervals on treadmill this morning, my favourite not
@ianpspurs hope you’re still enjoying the gym, @Pipp any swimming today?
Have a good day everyone
 
Morning All. A dastardly 7.1 today @Lainie71 I won’t even acknowledge mine with an expletive, maddening isn’t it? And on we go…happy Friday, take care, stay safe.
 
5.0 this morning. Thought I slept OK but seem to be very sluggish and unenthused about the day.

To the caffeine!
 
My 5.7 (Swipey stylee though) seems to be trending. Excuse me if I'm not enthusiastic to be at that level. @DEBBIESCOTT of course I enjoy the gym just frustrated by my limitations and wondering what a surgeon may be able to do to make me a nicer, kinder little boy. Big grin on my face due to the start of the O Antiphons (O Sapientia) - N Salopians must have got the email:):):):)

Make that twice in the same year, ;) Its the guest room and no one has been to stay over the last 12 months. Bearing in mind there is an inquisitive 3 year old in the mix this year, I really needed to bottom those places no one else ever ventures. It was amazing what I found hidden in there. Don't think I will go short of soaky bath sets for quite some time and I can probably open a bric a brac stall for the other stuff although maybe keep the bottles of strong stuff I found. Perhaps if I am lucky all the old toys belonging to the older grandkids (boxes of lego etc) may find a home with the ones visiting. :)

6.4 today. As the sun is bright it will be a walk, rather than swim today.

Diabetes management is like being on a treadmill. Keep pacing out, things will eventually work out.
