Morning all. Bedtime 7.3. This morning 7.6. Not so happy with that. Thought I was on the downward trend. @Estragon, got your message but to my shame, I don't know how to send one back.

Have a pracise with my name if you like, @RosemaryJackson .
This morning my 6.6 was welcome after a sleepless night, with an infection in my finger nail. Contented enough with the BG, less so with the finger pain.

9.1 this morning.

Still in my first few days of diagnosis and yesterday was 11, so I'll take this. Double up to 2 Metformin per day from today so I'll be interested to see how I progress

Good morning diabetics how are ya? Welcome to the chaos theory that is managing The D. New Swipey vowed and declared my fbg was either 5.2 or 4.4 - one of which suits me, the other will be put to my members but is an unacceptable offer imho - ymmv. Super salmon salad day today - pine nuts and all - so what's not to like?

6.2 this morning and 6.7 after work out. Would like it to be in the 5s but could be anyway with the discrepancies of the meter readings!

7.2 This morning

That's my lowest morning fasting reading yet in these first four or five days of testing. I managed a 5 2 in the afternoon yesterday, so I'm happy with my progress so far.

I know this won't be a nice easy slide down through the numbers, and there will be spike days a plenty... but for today so far

Morning all 5.5 on Swipey here which seems excessive but compared to @Estragon I should count my blessings. Take it easy fella. @Stu1969uk good attitude. Hope all those who work enjoy the Bank Holiday - kinda wasted on we Boomers (i and ii), sorry we broke the country though.
