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

We must both be doing something right at the moment, Angie. Well done you!

Incidentally, my reading 3 hours after the 24g carb in the 'Lizi's' granola (which is Low GI) was 4.6. I am very pleased with that. :D

I was 16.4 this morning.:(

I had a very late tea, i think i must have overestimated my carbs and gone low in the night..

I was back to a normal 5.9 at dinner though so i'm not too worried :)
 
I was 3.8 this morning.
ave been very pleased this week as i have not woken above 4.8 this week and not gone to bed with more than 10.1
 
5.1 yesterday, 4.8 (again) this morning. I've been extremely low in my carb consumption lately, not even a strawberry.

5.6 fasting - satisfactory
7.9 @ 2 hours - nothing to do with breakfast as I only had a joghurt at 6.5 carbs but it was extreme stress that caused it. Shows how sensitive your body is and how it can be influenced by the mind.
 
Hi, was 11.9 this morning! Had my 2year old granddaughter stay over last night , never stopped with her 'busy bee me!' Anna.x :D
 
Went to bed on 5.8 and woke to a 6! :)

Although I don't test every day, I did check this morning around 8am and it was 5.4 which is quite good on a 'diet only' plan.

ello peeps,

Posting hours behind again!

6.2 this morning and happy. New waking hours still don't seem to result in me needing to change any of my basals yey :)
 
Late posting for me too!
Was 8.1 on waking but am on steroids atm. Finish them tomorrow. Its been annoying as usually in the 4s and 5s. Have been adjusting insulin but makes no difference :( Oh well.

5.8 fasting
I had a horrible breakfast from a tub with a lovely picture of an apple and slice of pineapple on the top which said no added sugar in large letters. It turned out to resemble baby food and probably tasted like it too (I have never actually tasted baby food) and had 11 carbs for a tiny pot. Have thrown the other 3 pots away. So I followed up with some cheese. After all that had 6.4 @ 2 hours.
 
I didn't see until now that you've gone green daisy!! :)

Mine was 7.0 this morning, my pump targets are set between 5-7mmol so that's in the green for me but i would have liked a lower one maybe :)
 
I'm not surprised Daisy's gone green by the sound of that 'baby food'! :lol:

4.7 at 08:00. And - after plateau'ing for 3 weeks, I lost 5lb last week which brings me under 18 stone for the first time in about 5 years! Yay! :P That's under 252lb for those of you that don't work in stones and pounds.

I now weigh 250lb - only another 100lb to go! Sigh! At this rate it will take me at least another 2 years :( .

Never mind! onwards and downwards :D . Next goal is a BMI under 40 - not far now!
