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

[Widgets]

Do you frequent any high street shops / supermarkets? I take my old batteries to Morrisons or Boots, but I'm sure most other largish shops have tubs for them.

I hadn't thought of that! Resident BlokeShape is 'clinically extremely vulnerable' so we've been minimising such trips, but I'll check local branches and pop in when I have a supply to get rid of.

After a great b/s day Saturday

What’s a “b/s day”? Oh my, you’ve got a complex control system? Yes? I’m only on Metformin and LCFH. So, that low numbers is a good or bad thing for you?

New battery applied and I'm back in action.

4.5 this morning so it tells me.

 

[Estragon]

7.5 - As long as I get a sprinkling of these near-to morning 6s I’ll keep bashing on and take the long-term over view, as per @ianpspurs often recommends. I had a good sleep last night.

Happy Mondays.

Wanders into thread after a mensh from @Estragon. Hope y'all make a better fist of things V The D than Joe's clownshoes did in Hobart. Recycling trending here and in No 10 but the recycling here is positive and sensible. The other place? Big picture Team D, big picture.

6.9 this morning, don't seem to be able to get down much lower at moment but only a month in. My daily average is around 7 which i'm happy with at the moment.

First time that I've been back on here this year so belated Happy New to you all . My readings have been a mixture of 8's and 9's due to eating far too much and no exercise this am 8.7 .

4.6 today.

I indulged in red wine with dinner last night. Then a rum night cap. Fasting this morning, 5.8. Go figure.
Not practical to continue this regime on a daily basis, but oh, so tempted.
<— my mood today.

for bg and good mood - especially as today is Blue Monday. Just how "practical" for 99% of us is LC day in day out either? It also isn't 100% settled science. Big picture requires some well structured R and R just not wild carb orgies. When so doing there is a handy little meme attached. Back off Pearl Clutchers.

B/s is blood sugar, it’s the drop that’s scary, feel sick, dizzy & the room spins, like that most days

4.8 today. Also woke up WAY too early and feel like bleah.

Such is life, at least I have coffee. Well, had, but that's the ideal situation at this point really.
