Fasting BG 2016

[Sweety]

Today again I was at 94 in the morning and 2 hours after lunch I was 106. My box of strips has come. Thinking of doing a home ogtt. I read about it on the site and then googled more info on it. Will that be ok or I must get it done through a lab ? What's your advise ?

85 (4.7) this morning.  We reached 84° yesterday with humidity at 13% and a breeze so quite nice outside.  Summer is on the way.   
@Sweety, I'm not sure why you would want to do this.  Doctors use an OGTT to determine if someone is diabetic but regular bg testing and A1c will also show you.  Unless you doubt that you are diabetic I don't know what it would prove.  I have no doubt about myself and would not go through it.

Happy Friday 13 everyone !

I agree with Wally . . . I don't see a good enough reason for inflicting such an impact on your body, when you're just beginning to adapt to LCHF.

81 (4.5) this morning. So glad it's Friday, being the 13th is even better

  Friday the 13th
Thank God I stay in the east & got the reminder only in the late evening.

94 (5.21) this mostly clear breezy morning, 88 (4.88) at bedtime last night.

Allergies back in force.  My lilacs are just blooming as is my Finnish dogwood.  There is some yellow flowered bush/weed at the head of my road that is really getting to me.

Barb, I'm running out of Flonase and Kleenex too.

68 this morning.  Not really hungry and this was a frantically busy day and I didn't eat until supper and ate a lot.  A full pan of fresh green beans and 2/3 of a Hormel meatloaf, so no telling how bad it will be tomorrow, but I got thru the day at least.  A funeral tomorrow...a memorial service for my dear friend.  Physically demanding, but I feel I have to go for his kids whom I've known almost all their lives.

92 today. Ok I will not do the ogtt as advised.

160 this morning.  Numbers are coming down over all.  I've had some slip ups food-wise, but in general I am really trying to stay strictly lc/hf.  I never realized how hard it is to add more fat int!!  Too many years of brainwashing I guess!

I was on the higher side today, 124 mg/dl. Couldn't place why

114 this morning.

88 (4.88)  this morning.  Looks like another nice day today but getting windy later this afternoon and tomorrow.

Considering how yesterday was for me, it wasn't as bad as it could have been...113 this morning. 68 yesterday morning and then off the ranch last night and 113 today.  I'm not good at planning ahead so I'll bet I don't have the 5.0 A1C at next test!

Have a great day.  I have the memorial service for a dear friend today and dreading it.  I hate funerals.  I hate losing friends period!

83 (4.6) this mostly clear morning, 98 (5.43) at bedtime last night. No idea where that came from!! It is annoying because I have blood work at the end of the month.  I don't see the dr until the 10th of June, but I am going to CA to visit my kids and grands at the beginning of June and I know I may possibly go astray a bit.  Don't want that to mess with my A1c!!  (Remembering Shanny's anniversary trip...    )

(Remembering Shanny's anniversary trip...    )

Talking of anniversaries, last night we had a quiet anniversary dinner at a BBQ place. Needless to say, I slipped, and haven't checked my morning fasting number.
