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

[mojo37]

In the 8's over the last few days ( own doing or should I say undoing ) with a 8.7 this morning .

Hello mates,
At a couple of the other forums I've frequented there was a thread like this one where we all sorta checked in each day, with our first cup of coffee or tea, and reported our fasting or waking blood glucose level and some short comment about whether we're ok with it or if not - why not?...

It worked well as a sort of 'first thread to check' each morning and post to.

I'll start.

This morning was a 5.6mmol for me. That's about normal for me

What about you?

My omnipod normally keeps me at 6.4 but I was 9.2 this morning. OK by me

Newbie here, 7.2 for me this morning. Reasonably happy as I’m still working on getting things back under control after totally losing the plot.

Welcome to our forum and this FBG thread @KimC2110. We're pleased you could join us.

5.8 this morning, slept well as cosy in bed and below zero outside. Not looking forward to scraping the car windows...again. Also the heating at work tends to hibernate over the winter months. Bring on the summer.

Morning all. 7.5 this morning. Keep warm everyone, the weather is in a frosty mood.

6.7 this morning. Went out like a light and in bed by 7:45pm so a better night than previous. Off food but in the 5s so guess that's good.

Libre 4.8
After tea & collagen, shower & cooking breakfast meter says 5.3
Take care everyone, it’s nearly the weekend

 

[flonvic]

7.2 again.

 

[ChrisT2]

7.5 this morning, higher than would have wished but had a couple of segments (well 5 actually) of chocolate orange and a Baileys last night before bed. Guilty pleasures and sins always have to have payback unfortunately but my days of a saint have long since passed. Happy Friday all.

Morning All am 6.8 this morning even though had a carby day yesterday. I will NEVER understand this diabetes lark. In case its springing a nasty surprise on me tomo I will aim to be much better today. Happy Friday everyone.

5.5 this morning

….so the advise says that’s normal

 

[RosemaryJackson]

8.0. A very sleepless night and zigzag lines round my eyes this morning from tireness. There isn't an emoji that says how I feel!

 

[DEBBIESCOTT]

Good morning
Libre 4.4
Got my brother staying, come to start sorting mums house out, I’m off to the gym first to take my frustration out on some weights
Take care everyone
