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

4.6 at 6:30, but (yes, despite the time stamp) I had a good night's sleep. Sleep is good people, I highly recommend it.

Good to see you back posting @nutribolt I was wondering how you were doing.
 
Morning Team D. New Swipey = "sensor not responding please remove and replace" :arghh:. Abbott need to be rousted up. What is a guy supposed to do about sub-optimal outcomes from supposedly textbook actions - Elsie included? @DEBBIESCOTT I'm gyming later so I will obey. Stay safe, eat yer high quality protein and greens, move about a bit, lift things and then just hope and pray.

@ianpspurs thank you, think abbot have a problem with libres, last Monday still stuck to my arm but sensor had come away & hanging off so failed, exactly the same thing has happened to new one today, enjoy the gym

Afternoon All. Busy morning after finding 6.8 pn Libre and very unpleasant 7.6 the traditional way. However an hour after my slice of HiLo toast I tested 7.1 so happy with that even if it makes little sense! Happy Saturday!

Hi Lo, Hi Lo it's down the Stabbo we go:D
 
Hi type 2 here and because of that wasn’t given a test meter by diabetic nurse… managed to get a free meter through Contour.. tested. Myself for the first time this morning before break reading was 9 mmol,,, then tested again 2 hours after lunch which consisted of a sausage sandwich.. reading was 16mmol… should I be concerned

Great move to start testing. Keep on varying your meals and testing before and after, (writing it all down). The more data you have, the more you can learn, and the better Forum members can advise you. I suggest you experiment with a lower carb meal eg bacon, chicken, fish, meat (no bread). Most sausages do contain carbs (That info. will be on the packet.) I'm not saying you should never eat sausages and carbs, but for the sake of research try what readings you get with different levels of carb in your food.
 
Good morning
Yet another new Larry (3rd one in a week)
Phone 8.9

Not surprised, had the munchies last night,
