4.8 this afternoon! About 2 hours after eating a hotdog, chips (crisps) and a Coke Zero.
A second check with the same meter reiterated the 4.8, and my other meter gave me a 5.6.
I was happy to take all three.

No FBG check this morning after being up 'til after 2:00. But after yesterday's long afternoon nap I woke to a 5.6 which made me very happy I can still get down there.

5.7 yesterday
6.1 today following a games night. Blackpool monopoly. A few late night nibbles and wine. Great night. I came last!!! I'm just not competitive enough. ;-)

That day when an inner voice says, with it being 5.22 and having all that data from your sensor (costing almost £50 a throw) and Excel doing nothing on the phone, why not take 7 readings at intervals between waking and dressing at locations around the bedroom and en suite, then average them? I think my fbg was in the region of 4.642857143 - give or take.

@SaskiaKC I am also pleased for you that readings are coming in really nicely for you of late. @DJC3 and @PenguinMum it would seem that nolens volens beats the best efforts of even the strongest, most determined ladies from time to time but you two will emerge winners.

5.6 today. Burgers, fried onions, salad and coleslaw. Onions and coleslaw culprits I think. But happy when under 6 so all good in the hood.
