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

6.5 this morning
Yesterday 4pm I went rogue. 2 Snickers Bars and big bar of Lindt chocolate. Clearly pushed me out the late 5s this morning. Does that mean sugar still floating in my system from numerous chocolates?
 
9.1! It’s staggering how just 3 custard creams yesterday at 12 noon can have such an effect on my BG this morning I can only assume it’s this as the only other thing I ate was Chicken Caesar salad. I’m going to fast today and see what result I have tomorrow.
 
Good morning all.
A sullen 6.9 on the finger prick and a satisfying 5.9 on Libre. Happy with that, as my BG levels all day yesterday were within a better range.

I’m currently skipping breakfast which is having a positive effect on the whole day. Pity as I really like breakfast, although I know I should stay away from sausages!

Today on a day trip to France
so may just sneak in a Moules Frites, go easy on the frites
 
7.2 this morning bad nights sleep (heat), but off for my work out with about 10 fans directly on me exercising in me pants! Hubby says its like a carry on film
 
So this morning woke up really early around 4:30 got up a little after 5:00 so as I was wanting a cup of tea, I decided to test my bloods. FBG was 5.1. 'nuff said.

Morning all, fbg 6.8 and bed was 6.0 . Did a treadmill run yesterday and 1hr post had a 4.1 so something is working just my fasting that's annoying. Enjoy your day folks
The 4.1 is a smashing result, FBGs are only a glimpse in time, its the rest of the day that makes the difference. Wishing you well with the A1c result
