My BG was 7.0 @ 7.45am today

Hi heavyd BG for me today 5.8
Hope your keeping well lots of people not well in uk coughs colds and tummy bugs.
All in my family have been ill with the colds and followed by a chesty cough, but I think it's on it's way round again not feeling to bright myself again. I'll just stay in keep warm and have lots of hot drinks. Take care of yourself. K
 
Hope your feeling better soon,my hubby still not well now got a chesty cough, but he's not a mean man he's sharing it with me again! K

Morning K yes my dear hubby was the one who shared his cold with me the cold itself doesn’t bother me but given that I’ve had a few life and death illnesses I have to admit that the humble sore throat flattens me. Every time I’m such a wuss with a sore throat

Hi@karen8967
Same here my colds always settle on my chest after the initial sore throat,I end up with really bad chest infections. I've had pneumonia, bronchitis to name a few. So take good care of yourself, hope you enjoyed your night out with the girls and your not suffering too much!
 
I’ve long since expected a ‘normal with insulin and diabetes ‘ but I was just wondering do different people consider to be a ‘normal morning Bg ?
 
Hi Ymdawd
Hope your fully recovered from your recent illness( tummy bug) not seen you of late on thread so hope your keeping well?
Been busy with two of them in household with colds and coughs so I could have missed you. Do take care of yourself best Wishes K

Hi Goacher55 for me it's staying in 5-6 s and trying to not spike during the day, it's usually after I've eaten something different and the reaction is surprising like yesterday I had for lunch carrot and coriander soup I'm fine with this but I tried one of those part baked rolls oh! Hot bread, ended up with a 10.9 BG 2 hours later. Carbs are lethal to me but I still try them occasionally to see how I react!K
 
Good morning fbg this morning was 4.6.

Was another odd day yesterday tested before dinner after not eating for several hours astounded by a reading of 9.1 had dinner an hour later was 6.2 an hour after that and was 6.5 then this morning as I said 4.6. Odd!
Hi @JohnEGreen Diabetes just likes to keep us all on our toes it throws us a curve ball to make us take notice, we cannot get complacent,let the battle commence, K wouldn't you agree!
 
good morning all :)

4.4 today

taking Sunday lunch to feed mum's visitors today, chicken filet stuffed with black pudding with a creamy mushroom sauce and veggies, followed by blueberry cheesecake (low carb. version for me ;) ). Off to the kitchen now to make it so!
@gleeful send me the recipes quickly or I will be one of your Mums guests today, it sounds absolutely fabulous! K
