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

Morning All. A shocking 8.1 this morning feeling a bit out of sorts, didnt eat all my supper, upset tum, rubbish sleep, Covid cough but I’m fine really
@Estragon hope the cramps disappear soon. Tum upsets are rubbish.
Have a good Friday everyone.
 
5.6 this morning. @Estragon hope the cramps resolve soon I get similar cramps almost weekly some times several times a week I have found the only thing I can do is lie down with one knee raised until it subsides alternating raised knee every so often.
 
7.1 this morning and went to bed on 5.8 and nothing to for 14hrs.
 
Morning all, FBG was 5.5 on one device and checked with a second, result 4.9. Eeny meeny miny moe... Have a nice day folks.

5.7 this morning. That’s my first in the 5s FBG since diagnosis in March. Was so shocked I checked it twice with finger prick.

Funny how you become obsessed with BG values. Sort of take over your life. I remember with some fondness my pre-diabetic days.
 
FBG 8.8 this morning. Not good but not unexpected after going to bed at 9.8 and not taking a correction due to a few drinks.

Was nieces Debutante Ball. So calculations were tricky at best and less then ideal snacking due to meals taking forever. Still a great evening.

Morning All. 6.7 for me today and after first sleep in 4 weeks not ruined by Covid cough. @Nicki70 what a lovely surprise. @mojo37 keep on carrying on, loving your avatar. Love puffins. Have a good Saturday everyone.

My daughter loves puffins and has got me hooked on them too.
 
8.7 this morning I seem to alternate between 8's and 9's at the moment not brilliant and I need to get back into walking every or most days and lowing them dam carbs . That said poor sleep ( which seems to be my norm these nights ) isn't helping .
