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

[LivingLightly]

U R an inspiration to us all!!!

Keeping BGs in check is a daily challenge, but well worth the effort.
Logging my results here, it must be said, helps to keep me incentivised!

Morning all
5.4 this morning

 

[dotty-p]

Morning
Sun!
but 6.3
not surprised as I managed to do something to my knee when walking last night - felt like something slipped- still hurts so will try not to use it too much today. I have ibroprofen gelled up, a knee brace on and will find out my walking poles and find a gentle walk

Mine this morning are 15.7 on the Libre sensor and I don't know how it's that but it's coming out as that on it still high

OMG I’m 8.1 FBG this morning! Never knowingly been that high In the morning. It was late, I had a disturbed night and I’m all on top dough as I have a flight later, but even so.. Dawn has got a lot to answer for.

Morning All 8.0 today likely due to a run in before bed with a freshly opened jar of Whole Earth crunchy peanut butter and a spoon! That will teach me but it was delish Have a good Tuesday everyone.

What goes up should eventually come down. FBG this morning 6.3. That's more like it, back in the zone again.

After over eating indeed my BG goes up, then I start portion control and after that slowly my BG comes down.

6.7, but that was after coffee.

Fbg 5 here - meh. Peanut butter eh? Kg tubs of Bulk Foods PB are rather spiffing but may I suggest changing the spoon ?

Fattbar cookie, 35 gms PB and a 3rd 750 mls of tea upcoming for breakfast here. Y'all have a good day now.

Are you also doing finger prick test because some people find quite a discrepancy between Libre and finger pricking .

6.3 again this morning was hoping to back in the 5's but awake from just after midnight till 4.30 and very very hungry so did have a snack about 2am . Anyway it is what it is and compared to several months ago it is a very good number for me .

6.1 again this morning could get used to this.

I agree helps keep me on track. And aim for the best I can. Especially having got off Gliclazide and aiming for the metformin is a few months. Just got to figure the carbs out and increase exercise.

5.3 today. Slept much better than yesterday, and hopefully it'll stay low.

 

[Overwhelmed]

Late post but FBG 7.2 .. bed was 5.8..5km walk after dinner contributed to that I'd say .
Enjoy the rest of your day folks

 

[Bcgirl]

6.2
glucose levels still much higher than normal before and after meals. Doc appointment tomorrow, think there’s a kidney infection happening…

 

[Mini Dachs Mum]

6.8 this morning. Not sure why.
Gym yesterday morning, walk with the mini dachs in evening and a small workout before bed.
Eating kale slaw and quinoa low carb crisp breads with homemade pesto (3) for lunch. The rest of the Kale slaw and homemade tomato and pumpkin soup for dinner. Snack in afternoon small bag of cashews and some strawberries.

FBG 8.2 Libre 8.1 Ugh! This was after both a bedtime and 1:30am correction.

Moving on …

 

[KitSileya]

5.2 for me today, which I am happy with. I was 7.4 yesterday at 9 p.m., after a somewhat stressful day back at work, so I feared today's fbgl.

Have a wonderful 'small Saturday' (what we call Wednesday in my country, as it's halfway through the workweek) everyone!

Anyway it is what it is and compared to several months ago it is a very good number for me .

Good! Stay positive, well done. T2 is a condition I need to live with - simples!
