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

5.4 for me today (5.8 yesterday.) I’m getting greedy - after two weeks in the fives for fbgl, I am now contemplating how to chase the fours…Much wants more, as they say in my language, or in this case, lows want less!

I would be happy to be in the 5's especially low ones anything in the mid 4's or lower ( I get them sometimes but not FBG) and I get all shaky and can't concentrate . Not sure if this is because my body has been running on high numbers for so long .

Morning All. 7.6 again about 20g carbs total yesterday as delayed Fish Finger Firsday to today :( Will keep on trucking, nothing else for it. I dream of sticky sixes. Have a good Friday everyone.

Snap! FBG 7.6 for me this morning, after one day in those desirable sixes. No obvious food reason for the sevens. I’ve been good since my weekend with the kids, which admittedly was carb central. I have been slacking on the exercise but I wanted to let my back fully recover before ramping up again. Went for a swim this morning & have a hike planned for the weekend. I’m trucking right along behind you!
 
6.8 and I tested twice just in case. Looking at my numbers yesterday they started to rise during the day. 5.8 fasting and 5.8 still fasting before eating at lunch time. Normally I see a great reduction in this figure. Then 6.5 before evening meal of salad and 6.7 afterwards though it was 6.1 before bed. I just do not understand blood sugars. I don't eat any snacks and have 2 meals a day about midday and about 4pm then nothing apart from water. Maybe I am just too strict because if I do have a meal out it or away numbers seem to improve.
