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

[Ashybang]

9.5 this morning.
Better than yesterday, but poor compared to the day before when I hit lower reading.
I've worked out that eating meals after 8pm seem to have a negative effect on morning readings.

Good morning
Libre 4.4
Treadmill & yoga after work today
Take care everyone

3.7 again (dexcom... alarm woke me up). 4.2 finger prick. I can't win, two weeks ago I was over 20. I didn't treat the 3.7 (mainly because the fingerprick was above 4.0 so I decided to just monitor) but an hour later, before breakfast I was 5.0 on the CGM. I don't get compression lows on the dexcom so it really was somewhere between 3.7 and 4.2 (or higher or lower) but what can one do?

A FBG of 6.5 for me this morning. Nothing to see here.

7.2 this morning….I just don’t get it. The only carbs I ate yesterday was a tiny bowl of high fat yogurt (less than half a cup) with a serving of keto granola. Less than ten carbs….
c peptide came back totally normal…mid range.
got to the gym this morning, it’s my happy place

7.4, .1 down on yesterday... I'll take that. Heck I'd take .01 if it was going down... Happy Friyaay y'all. Seems to have come round quickly! Stay safe.

Very disappointing 11.2 this morning.
I can't get to grips just yet, at how sensitive and volatile my Blood sugar readings are.
I'll keep chipping away though and hope readings are lower, after I stop taking steroids in another week.
Wishing everyone good health and let's put some happiness in there too.

Morning All. 7.3 put on a Libre yesterday as off to Lanzarote for a week tomo. Anyway it showed that my BG started to rise at 3am and I’m not going to test my FBG at that time of the morning. My evening meal is eaten before 7pm so what to do? Carry on carrying on me thinks. Good news @RoughcutAU and good patience and @Ashybang keep going the steroids will have had an effect.
Happy Friday and take care everyone.

Mine goes up around 3am most nights as well. It comes back down fairly quickly. I surmised that I get restless around that time, either cold ( bedroom around 10 deg C), or in need of the loo.
