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

5.3 this a.m. Had a really big bowl of meaty Bolognese last night at around 7:00 instead of the usual 5 or so, followed by a handful of nuts - a bit carb heavy so v. happy with that result.

@ianpspurs - You keep clinging to that rock :)

Thanks and great fbg for you. Very big picture is 1 Corinthians 15:19 for you and I. Eyes on the prize.

Morning all. Well, I thought I had stayed on the wagon! But my bedtime reading was 8.3 and this morning 8.7. Hey ho, start again. :(

It takes a while for the "Wagon " to take affect or is it effect I never remember which is which :)
 
Good morning from
I have the rebound effect happening every morning so 9 & up are my usual morning numbers.
Today was 10.2.
I feel like I need to find a fix for this rebound effect.
Happy Friday folks!
 
been a little out of it this last week and a bit, injured my back and bloods were higher than normal, in the mid 6's rather than 5's to low 6's

doc gave me a drug to use for two weeks since I didn't seem to be improving and it is royally screwing with my blood sugars, first morning after taking it was a 7.3, today after a much lower carb meal last night was a 6.9, and just now after a meal that is normally ok for me I hit 11.1...I might need to go a bit keto for these two weeks.
 
7.7 - Phooey…..

Meanwhile, @ Castile Estragon, the Gardening Team are busy with Busy-Lizzies, laying the lobelias and attempting to be germane with the geraniums…. and the like.
 
Morning All. 6.1 but these 6s are likely due to eating very little these last few days due to constant stomach and joint pain especially at night. Think it might be a flare up of IBD but am exhausted. Anyway on we go. Happy Saturday everyone.
 
Morning all. I’m T2 and have a FBG at 8 this morning. I don’t usually test but have been advised to for a few weeks.
Yesterday I had weetabix and went up to 12. 90 mins later I was at 6.1 and feeling very weak, clammy and shaky.
Need to understand what’s happening. This morning I’ve had yoghurt and raspberries and will test in an hour.
Sorry if I’ve posted in the wrong.

So - 2 hours after a breakfast of yoghurt and raspberries and a coffee with lacto free milk I scored 7.1

. I think I’m happy with that? Should I be?

Welcome @Lindap118. You posted your FBG and gave us some background so this is the right thread.
 
Morning all. I fell off the wagon yesterday with a great big thump! Ate everything that I shouldn't and went to bed on a 10.5. 7.8 this morning. Have a bad head so it serves me right but I am so sick of being diabetic :banghead::banghead::banghead:
