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

FBG today is 6.4 it's not a number that gives me much satisfaction - bit concerned as bloods are not going down during the day. Guess I will just take inspiration from what others on this thread have done, knuckle down, try doing a reset and see if things improve. Have a good day everyone. :)

Tough times don't last, tough people do. Can't remember who on this forum I nicked that from but you guys way up there in the dark and dangerous north are tough. She'll be right.

@ianpspurs you nicked that from @Bluetit1802 . As a tough northern lass, like myself, I guess she will forgive your plagiarism, as long as you state the source in future.;)
This morning I am happy with my 5.8.
 
6.8 on wake up - again finding it difficult to get motivated and out of this funk I am in :arghh:

Good news on the fbg. I will acknowledge my sources in future - Harvard reference system do you? Certainly sounds like a tough lass. Sunny and warm here:angelic: Sorry @Bluetit1802
 
Morning all. 5.6 on Swipey here. I am not of the cast of mind to see that as in any way safe or to just shrug my shoulders and say it is what it is. Hugs won't solve the problem so thanks but no thanks. @PenguinMum I fully sympathise with you but that won't help you either, sorry. @BrianDoc great fbg and hug for the lab. @ultradad amazing fbg but now I can't unsee Canderel Bake which I note has mucho erythritol:arghh: @DEBBIESCOTT so I upped the weights and did an extra set of everything but still need a radio telescope to see you in the distance. Go Team D.

Hi mojo37, yes they did and no after taste. My wife uses a recipe that only has 50grams of caster sugar. So it was just 50grams of canderal bake instead which made it easier. Taste and texture of a normal welsh cake but with a little bit less sugar than usual ( if that makes sense ). I tested before and 2 hrs later ( 5.5 to 5.6 ) so having another 1 tonight :)
