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

Glad your fbg is declining but take it easy @DJC3. Good news on the sun @PenguinMum. @Ryhia not all glasses are created equal so I hope yours was a ladylike helping of gin. 4.7 for me today but via Swipey so ??? I'm obviously thankful it is no higher but convinced that is sub-optimal.

Maybe time for an HbA1c? I'm dying to know if all your effort has worked.

Thank you yes I was pleased brekie was bacon eggs and wholemeal toast came in about 40 carbs . Did a 3 mile walk after breakfast which probably helped :)

I can tell you now it won't have worked but I have the form to order blood tests. LC doesn't work for some of us - just one of those things. I'm not anti LC just resigned to it not working for me.

Best wishes for your HbA1c @DisFanJen. Welcome and congratulations @992947x. Hiug for the merry go round @DJC3 - be kind to yourself that recent stress must account for much of the numbers. @PenguinMum enjoy the walk. @ziggy_w you enjoy the weekend as well. So, Swipey was 5.3 @ 6.30 which is about 90 mins later than usual so I don't know how to categorise that one. It is what it is may be true but leads nowhere useful.
 
6.9 this morning, perhaps not unexpected as I’ve been eating fairly normally while big son is with us this week.

Back to disciplined eating as of Sunday !

Knee survived a 4.5k yesterday, albeit much slower than usual. I am missing the exercise I usually do each week while it’s not happy, but feels like slowly recovering. I am still hopeful of being able to run the 10k I entered on bank holiday Monday.
