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

Morning all, it was 5.7 today, happy with that!
I got my 3 month review blood tests back - I now have an HbA1c of 42 - so a nearly non-diabetic number. I'm both chuffed and a little miffed - as my home testing predicted an A1c of 35 - but I'll take it!! Thanks to everyone on this thread who calms me down when my fasting bg doesn't behave, which is often!

Great news! You’ve done really well.

My A1c predictive app also suggested a lower figure than the lab result, which was a little disappointing. It was loads better than the previous year’s reading though so I just focussed on the improvement I’d made. By the next test we’ll have smashed it!

Got the results for my first eye scans, and have been given an all clear with a healthy eyes report :)

Also, a busy day today at work, rode, 50 minutes bike ride round trip, a lovely lunch of fried halloumi, on beetroot with a walnut salad, then took dogs for a walk for 40 mins.

Then Vampira called to check how I was doing 100 mins after lunch and walk, most odd I checked results twice first was 4.7, and second was 4.8, Result! No idea why, but happy with it. considering it was 5.4 this morning.

Hope I can keep it up, but I know it will be a bumpy road with ups and downs.

So my my dangling participle and I, will partake in a glass of a particular good single malt this evening.

Hope everyone else has had a good day, will have great evening and a good start to a fun weekend
