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

Morning All. Drum roll …..5.8 never thought I’d see a 5 again! Anyone would think its Christmas lol. And that was after dipping my hand into Mr PM’s bowl of crisps last night, only once I promise!! @DEBBIESCOTT I am hoping you will feel better after a couple of days on the antibiotics. Take care if you’re out and about folks.
 
Morning everyone, 7.8 at bedtime dropping to 7.4 this morning. I'll take that :) Frosty here in Nova Scotia -5c. We have weather warnings for today. A big weather system is bringing loads of rain, high winds and 9 c of warmth. I love these weather systems that come up from Florida, it feels like Florida has arrived on our doorstep.

Thank you
 
Christmas fall off the wagon starts. Been up and down this week but most mornings 4.5 - 5.0 despite one before bedtime of 7.1 It was a doughnut!!!
This morning 5.4.... Before bed 6.9! It was the Thai meal and the rice! Weight down 1.5 kg this week though, so that is some comfort.
Will try and stay between 5 and 7 over Christmas 2 days... Then cut down again until New Year for a few days.
 
6.5 this morning. yesterday I had one latte, a mince pie from the same coffee shop (£3! For a mince pie! What is the world coming to?) and some airfried chicken thighs and drumsticks sprinkled with barbecue seasoning. I was at 9.8 or 9.9 1hr after the mince pie then 7.something 30 mins later.
 
Morning all, It was eyes on the skies yesterday as 'Elliott' the bomb cyclone blew through. He packed a punch but I'm still here. My blood sugars were a nice 6.4 last night which was great as they had been 11.7. Anyways, my FBG rose from 6.4 to 7.4 this morning. I'm blaming the rise on Elliott :rolleyes:
