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

Morning all (24/05/15)

4.0 this morning.

Still on the Newcastle Diet but last night I had a notion for a salad so I had an Asda good and balanced spicy chicken and wholemeal pasta salad. Tested 3.3 before then 7.8 2 hours after. Quite pleased with that as I'm not taking any medication

Salad was nice by the way
 
4.2 this morning (25/05/15)

Had a low reading of 2.7 last night before dinner! - I reckon it's a rogue reading from my meter.
 
5.9 this morning I guess my liver didn't dump any glucose into my blood today which is making me smile
 
Yesterday evening before my evening meal was 4.9
2 hours later it went up to 6.8.

this morning , Monday 25.05.15 it was 4.9
 
8.2 this am up again only thing I had different yesterday was low carb blueberry n apple crumble yummy

Enjoyed the jelly babies!

Day 11 Newcastle diet
 
8.8 This morning but I did have a late night snack 2 crisp bread with cheese 11.45 pm. Yesterday I had my best reading ever 7.7 which although it seems quite high compared to most I feel pleased because before I started a low carb diet my reading was in the high teens.
