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

[dotty-p]

Just out of curiousity, what do you take to eat on that kind of expedition? I similarly find it difficult to find suitable non carby food when on the hoof, so ideas of alternatives would be useful. I have resorted to knawing on chicken legs (cooked!) before now as they’re easy to stick in tinfoil, but other options welcome.

I took some cheese and left over boiled ham nuts tomatoes and a pear. It worked out fine as there were only sausage rolls, pasties & cake available. I have in the past asked for a meal without the rice / chips / bread and with extra salad beans etc.

6.8 This is starting to get me down as my fasting reading goes up. If I had eaten something different I could understand. Maybe I need to be a little less careful with eating.

FBG of 6.3 at 7am this morning. Same dinner as Sat night (leftover roast lamb & cabbage heated up) minus the Hagen Das, SF jelly back on the menu. Other variable was exercise, of which there was little yesterday. Duly noted.

Have a super Monday!

Labor day today as it was all those years ago for your mum but with an added u. Happy birthday and many more.

6.1 today. Last week was all in the sixes, and it is quite noticeable what stress does to my blood sugar, as well as iffy sleep. (Hello, menopausal hot flashes at night, you will be hated.)

So many things influence Blood Glucose .

Hey, we're birthday twins! It's my birthday today too - and my actual, born five minutes before me, twin's birthday too*! As I always say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!

*Having the same birthday... or even birth month...is not guaranteed even if you are twins, as my great grandmother Julia and her twin sister Augusta could attest to!
