A disappointing 7.3 at 4.45am. Off metal detecting later with my grand daughter

Like for the metal detecting with granddaughter. @Retanna . Sorry for the disappointment, but welcome to the thread.
I am not too disappointed with my fasting level today. 6.1. Those elusive 5s just don’t seem attainable. Yet!

Bit happier this morning, back down to 6.6 .
 
Morning all. 12.8 bedtime (think the heat got to me), tested an hour later at 11.30pm , 10.2. Tested at 2.45 am, 6.3. And at 5.45am, 6.8. Never had figures like that before.
 
Morning All. 6.8 which considering I am up an hour later I’ll take that. @RosemaryJackson it sounds like you had a very disturbed night’s sleep which is not good for BG at least thats what I find! After trying really hard for nearly five years Diabetes still constantly hoodwinks me. But you know we are trying. Bet you can’t wait to see your son again. Happy Sunday everyone.
 
4.8 this morning, due to a little glass of something to make me sleep. ;)Have a lovely Sunday folks.:)

Were you deliberately checking your bloods through the night? Maybe the higher level is to do with excitement at the thought of seeing your son? I know my bloods go haywire if I have any kind of emotional angst going on. Keep well.
 
6.8 this morning . Was expecting it to be lower as have very little to eat yesterday and what I did eat had very little carbs . So frustrating as fasted for 15hrs also . Happy Sunday everyone another gorgeous day
 
Have hardly been eating these last few days, as the hot weather puts paid to appetite. have I seen lower numbers through the day? Nope!
Started today with a 7.1, after hardly any sleep. Early getting up, cooler morning. Never mind following fasting method of diet, hasn’t helped these hot days. Appetite better, so having cooked breakfast.
