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

[OrsonKartt]

Still don’t quite trust libre but oh so much easier than finger pricking

Five point eight

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.

Normally 6’s and 7’s …, although I have hit the high 5’s a few times recently

6.1 today
cloudy but warm, off for an eye exam soon. My “check engine” light came on in my car yesterday…dang.

Those numbers are ok. Looks like you are hitting the "green zone" averages so whatever you are doing to control your blood sugars seems to be working for you. Well done.

hugs for the garage :F much prefer a check engine light than BG meter telling me to check keytones. Hopefully will be something relatively easy and not too expensive for repair good luck

Libre: 3.8 fingerprick: 5.3 another beautiful day outside feel like getting spoiled rotten with all this recent awesome weather. thinking about off to the pool in a wee bit, then maybe brave mowing the back garden. Spent a fair bit of time yesterday getting out all the weeds from the lawn really wish my neighbours would do the same rather than allowing the usual jungle to appear

7.4 this morning…. Lowest morning number in a long while

 

[RosemaryJackson]

Morning all. At 4am, it was 6.4 !! At 7.30 it was 6.9. I am very happy with that. Have a great day all. My emojis have disappeared/

Morning All so meter 9.1 (ugh!) and Libre 8.3 though Libre was 7.9 while I walked down the stairs. Suspect it was the snack of cheese and two oatcakes late afternoon. Heavy punishment for the crime! Anyway take care everyone.

Another 6.8 at a later time this morning. If my readings are due to dawn phenomenom then I don't understand why my liver seems to want me to get up at 3AM. It might have been something I had to do in the past but 3AM these days doesn't exist for me anymore. Perhaps my whacky dreams bring it on.

Good morning

4 83 Tuesday morning, last snack at 7pm, 2 Boiled eggs, few walnuts and black coffee. Morning FBG is in good range, it's hard to do every night like that. Sunny day, I will try to do some outdoor activities. Have a nice day everyone.

Have a good day all if you possibly can

6.9….no comment. Good news though, my “check engine” light went out after a short highway drive. No idea why but I’ll take it! Just made a ultra low carb lasagne (using Turkey slices for noodles) and now I have supper for a long time!

What I’ve heard about check engine light is that sometime it just wants someone to lift up the bonnet to check the engine is there. I read this [emoji[emoji6]] days ago

For check engine light, good idea to double check if the engine is there!

5.9 at 0600 today
Tuesday was 7.5 returning to 5.5 after work and before evening meal

5.5 this morning. Yesterday, not a fluke then! I have been trying to gain back control and not eating between meals - hoping that's starting to have an impact. The other thing could be the change in the weather. Spring and all that!
