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

Morning folks. Question of wine ?? Gonna be a nice red, a Shiraz or a Pinotage.
But, down to Earth with a bump this morning

10.0 at 8:40.
Someone, somewhere is having a laugh at me and my naive excitement.

Ah well, onwards and downwards. The next reading WILL be low........I hope

yes my morning numbers are going down slowly, it seems that it is hard to get them in the fours , which I of cause am aiming for like 4.5mmol is my goal
my liver is rather good at compensation every lowering in my blood glucose... maybe due to earlier times of disease in which I was starwing for very long periods, not on purpose but because of cronic and like automatic wommitting 24 hours a day...
 
Well done inspirational!
 
6.0 or 109 mg/dl. I'm back from root canal and crown -still numb but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but did take 4 hours in all. Dentist said the root was really infected and I have to continue antibiotics for another week.

Hi folks. As you can imagine, I wasn't to pleased with my bloods this morning. But I'm realising that, as I said before, the pre breakfast pin stick might not be the one to get bent out of shape over.

So back to my routine. Unfortunately I had a 12:0 after lunch. Really p*^^ed me off. Took another sip of coffee and realised the problem. Shouldn't of had my coffee until after the blood letting

Not much I could do after that, so had to wait until the evening test and got a very nice 8.4. Yayyyyy

Still sticking to the low carb routine and other than having weird dreams about bathing in red wine, it seems to be doin fine.

So onwards and downwards. Hope you all have a good weekend with nice low numbers.
