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

I was 10.7. Way down from the 16.5 8 days ago when I started the FPG. On low carbs/intermittent fasting so wonder how long it'll be before I start getting the likes of 5.5 (ish)...
Hello and a warm welcome to the forum.. We're pleased you could join us.

How long it'll take to reach a FBG of 5.5 or thereabouts is a question none of us can answer. We're all different. One thing's certain, if you keep to a low carb, healthy fat lifestyle [LCHF], you'll get there, but it takes time. Please keep us posted.

Yesterday 5.1, today 5.3! I haven't seen FBG in the 5s in many, many years! Like 20! And then only when I was pregnant and on insulin! This is amazing!

A month in with my 4-5km walks every day and keto. Before the herbs, both things sent my BG spiraling out of control since long COVID. So amazing!

6.5 this morning quite high for me, but after having the covid booster yesterday, my levels were trending down all day. So deliberately elevated them in the high 7’s before going to sleep. All seems to have settled now so bolus as usual
