I have not eaten since 7pm last night (homemade pizza & diet Irn Bru) , took Metformin. Woke up in the night with my tongue stuck to roof of mouth at 4am dreamt of being lost looking for something, i suspect now it was the cold tap. Couldn't get out of bed, felt terrible. Fasted since 7pm last night, and at noon BG was 8.5 so I took a metformin, fasted some more and just now its 6.6. Feel fine again now. Going to may hay while sun shines and get some work done. Metformin makes me blow up like a balloon, whether I eat with it or not. So living on slim a soups when BG in range, 1 balanced meal a day to lose weight and get this diabetes into remission.

Morning All so 7.7 today better than yesterday but not satisfying in any way.
Take care all in this cold weather and avoid the viruses if you can.

7.5 today after lie-in and no surprises due to a late evening takeaway. Will probably spend most of the day on the "naughty step" with fasting as a penance. Has to be done now and again. Happy weekend all.

Good morning, 5.5 this morning. My fbg is slowly creeping up, still not bad. Got to make diet changes too. This is part of diabetes. Beautiful sunny day in Santa Cruz, have a nice day everyone

I’m still in thailand and went out to an annual flower show last night followed by Chinese food. I ate prawns cooked in hot and salty broth

This mornings blood glucose five point six

Always a worry when eating out eh ?
