How long have you had Type 2? I’m Type 1 and have had it almost 30 years. Bit bored of it now! The Waking thread linked to above is a good place to chat as well as post your results. Don’t be afraid to jump in - everyone is friendly 🙂
 
Welcome to the forum @Lauralee

Feel free to join the happy band who enjoy starting their day with a brief check-in to the ‘waking average’ thread (that Bruce linked to above), posting their first level of the day and exchanging a bit of chat.

It can be an easy way to get to know a few forum folks and pick up some tips, or just a little encouragement 🙂
 
Hi and welcome from me too.

The answer to your question is anything from hypos to mid 20s although ideally we are aiming for 4-7 probably 5-7 if you are using insulin, but most of us don't hit those targets all the time or even very often as you will see on the thread others have mentioned. Do come and join us there and you will see a whole range of waking readings as well as getting to know us a bit better. It is a bit like a virtual coffee morning. We drop in report our waking reading and share a bit about our day, frustrations with our diabetes, have a bit of joke and banter once we get to know each other and there are even cultural exchanges which can be quite fascinating. Oh... and ignore the "7-day average" part of the thread title.... we just post our waking BG reading each day.
