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

[Ryhia]

Hi. I’m in US so my readings are different (not sure how to convert). I’m always high first thing and then steadily drop.
178-117-95

Hi @kathryn59,
Welcome to the thread.
This link might help you to understand what others are achieving - https://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-sugar-converter.html I have got the conversion process correct, the 178 equates to around 9.9.

FBG 6.3 this morning which is not unexpected. Holiday time has come around and we are off to Turkey tomorrow with my Son, DIL and the 2 grandkids. We are meeting up in Manchester for onward flight. Hope the weather's ok.

Good morning one and all

7.0 at 7:30 this morning. It’s my own fault and feeling fed up Sugar addiction is the pits! I’m going to be mindful today of my eating and see what tomorrow morning FBG will be! No more peanut butter!!!

Have a fab time @Ryhia with your family and bring back some sunshine.

Have a sunny Saturday everyone

Bon voyage! @Ryhia. Have fun.

Thanks, looking forward to it. Son and family live at the other side of the country to me so it's a great opportunity to catch up and make more family memories.

Morning All well that didn’t last and 8.2 this morning, an hour later in bed but had sausage and beans for supper and beans are dynamite (but it was lovely) hard sometimes when Mr P having things not to join in. I never was top of the class. @mojo37 keep fighting back @Ryhia happy hols with your family and safe journey. @MissMuffett completely understand those sentiments but we’re really trying to be good. Happy Saturday everyone.

7.4 FBG first thing, half an hour later (ablutions & crashing around the kitchen) it was 6.4. I’m taking the latter.

To see better what’s going on, I put on a Libre CGM, but unfortunately it malfunctioned before it got going. Abbot are going to replace but it was the only one I had left.

 

[RosemaryJackson]

Morning all. 6.9 and most unexpected! Thanks @PenguinMum, but I had to laugh at the 'beans are dynamite'!!! They do tend to go off with a bang so to speak! Have a lovely weekend. Enjoy Turkey @Ryhia.

Evening @MissMuffett

You're right. For some it is an addiction.
Your Stop eating after 7.00 pm challenge has worked wonders for some of us. Keep to that and you'll soon be back on track.
