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

Yes, of course. I just feel "daft" coming back here and time and time again posting this yo-yo-ing. Also, I have this thought that I am doing myself harm by NOT achieving sustainable 5s and 6s, that others do.
Never feel daft for posting your blood sugars, we are all different & what works for one person doesn’t necessarily work for another, last couple of weeks I’ve found having a Benecol drinking yogurt in the morning & a casien shake with unsweetened almond milk at night (slow release protein) works for me, next week might be a completely different story
We can all only do our best, keep on keeping on

If you are doing the best you can to manage The D after doing your due diligence why feel daft? T2 is capricious and LCHF is just a theory. The Big Picture ™ is that the majority of us find our fbg and all other bg checks consistently inconsistent. This morning's posts are Exhibit A, M'Lud.

And this afternoon: 5.4. So, peeps, something DOES work. This was after breakfast of Celery, Turkey steak, stinky cheese and Polish Chicken Sausage and nuts.
 
8.7 - And this after a 5.4 yesterday afternoon.

BBQ weather today!
 
Morning All. 7.5 so firmly stuck in the scary sevens but guess what eating carefully and no snacking. Whatever. I will carry on carrying on, nothing else for it. Enjoy the sunshine if you can.
 
8.8 @ 4:00am

Another week scrambles into view.
 
5.4 this morning. don't know if I pressed the post button yesterday but bloods were the same as today. Have a good day all.
