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

@ianpspurs wasnt too bad, next week it’s the sprint triathlon, all distances doubled apart from cycle (doubled plus 2k)
 
9.4 bedtime, 9.1 this morning. Bad carb day yesterday, anniversary of husband's death and 2 days before it was anniversary of first daughter's death. Was overwhelmed and ate anything that wasn't nailed down. Hope for better day today, no, it WILL be a better day today
 
Sorry to hear about the meter but 5.3 tomorrow for sure. Stud it with anchovies as well and as good as lamb gets.
My imagination is giving me a 5.4. I do find that imagination, and how I feel generally , give good and accurate predictions. Would be good to have official, meter confirmation, though.
Waiting for postie to deliver.
 
That was a winning hug.
 
On a day like that carbs are totally irrelevant. Epic performance just to get through, test this morning and still post. Have as good a day as humanly possible today.

Been as rough as ten bears over the last week and that has resulted in giving FBG od 9's and 8's with a 10.7 thrown in for good measure . Slight improvement with a 7.8 this morning .

Sorry about that but bolded is nicely sanitised for this place. Hope you soon feel at least like a cub.
 
Morning All. 7.7 sticky sixes used to taste so good! Nothing for it but keep with programme. @RosemaryJackson hugs for tragic anniversaries, take care of you. @ultradad congrats on your amazing A1c you deserve to bask in the full sun.
Have a good Friday everyone.
 
thank you
You are entirely welcome. @ultradad have I missed the A1c? - thanks @PenguinMum - congratulations. @DEBBIESCOTT great fbgs and I'm sure you enjoyed the gym. @RoughcutAU nice run of fbgs. @PenguinMum (and anyone else) hug for this run of higher bg despite doing "all the right things". Absurdly, some people deny that this happens and, perhaps accidentally?, make others feel guilty for not "doing it right" i.e. like them. Stick in there the best way you can for you. . Super Salmon Salad Friday here Your mileage may vary (SSSF and YMMV from now on). Go Team D
 
Today I was surprised to find that my Libre2 has decided to bless me with a reading of 4.5 at 7.30 AM.
