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

I buy the small hard ones from Aldi, soon as they are unsliceable ie mushy it’s a no no
Just had one with marmite & poached eggs on Heylo toast
 
6.8
A warm day here but mostly cloudy. Went to the gym for abs and did my own yoga class as our instructor went to Mexico for a holiday. I thought I did a pretty good job.
once home it was back out into the yard to clean up the incredible mess…..I got so much done but now I’m a tad sore….sipping on electrolytes now and having leftover butter chicken for supper.
wishing everyone a great week
 
Morning All 8.1 on meter so the best in over a week but no rhyme or reason. The rhyme was staying steady at 6 till 3am and then rising till I got up.
Thanks for the avo suggestions but think it would push me too far lol. I do very occasionally have half sliced avo with prawns & mayo but then I wonder why I did it! @RosemaryJackson hope the Metformin SR suits you and I will look into cinnamon. Happy Monday everyone.
 
8.2 this morning…. Definitely over last few weeks can see day/evening gradually getting lower but mornings are mostly being stubborn and staying in the 8’s
I found my levels dropped in steps. I would go for a few weeks at a certain level, then the numbers would lower. What are your levels like during the day. I find those are the figures most useful when trying to guesstimate Hba1c for example.
