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

Good morning
Can’t sleep (03.45am)
Larry on phone 10.8
Reader 10.2
Finetest 6.8
Definitely another dud libre
Pt at 8 before work, might have a run first
Have a good day everyone
Going to feel like a long day
 
Hi Grant - welcome to the forum :) What a good idea for a thread. When I read this I had already had my first morning cup of coffee about 10-15 mins before but tested anyway and got 6.4. Last true fasting test was 5.9 so the coffee didn't make much difference (and no sugar anyway!). I usually get fasting tests in the 5s which is where I like them. Perhaps checking in here with my levels will help me remember to do the early morning test :)
I had a cup of tea tested 6;4 i will test tomorrow pre morning cuppa,
 
@DEBBIESCOTT legend for that dedication but hug for the early waking and odd numbers. Your D is obviously not due to being sedentary. @Estragon @PenguinMum and @DJC3 :woot: @Widgets +1 pt and fbg still 4.8? Impressive. My fbg was 6 today which is by degrees embarrassing, concerning, an epic fail, just where I'm at and still, optimistically, just inside pre-D. Good morning @benford and @blacknjr I'm off to the gym at 1.30 to see Toby. What could possibly go wrong?:angelic:
Edited to insert fbg
