Group 7-day waking average?

Update - GP just rang me and said that while he can't provide a letter (that has to come from the DVLA) he will note on my records that we have had a conversation and that he says i am fit to drive while my licence is being reviewed :D . I'm so relieved, at least i'll be able to get to work now and do mums shopping etc.
 
Today is a new day and the start of a new week and a new year of my life, so a good time to draw the line and start again.
A great attitude to have @rebrascora. I think being type 1 can be really hard going sometimes and it can really get you down. You've had a tough time lately with everything but you seem to pick yourself up and carry on as well as give support to others. Thank you, i do find your posts helpful and inspiring.
 
Great progress @EllsBells You should be proud of yourself - well done
 
Next step: properly breaking into the 5s.
You'll get there. Coming down from numbers around 8 to numbers around 6 is already fantastic progress. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it!

Thanks for your support however I have a slight confession to make on that front, in that my ex partner and I are in fact trying again. It is early days and I am very conscious that I don't want to jinx things but I was really not ready to walk away from it or move on from him and although he initially said he didn't want to try again, he approached me a few weeks ago to discuss it, as he was feeling the same, so we are trying to find a way forward. Neither of us want to go back to the way things were as the relationship had turned sour and we were both taking each other for granted, so we are trying to keep it a bit lighter and more casual and things are much better at the moment... so I am probably a bit more optimistic than I might otherwise have been. Confession over! 😳🙂
 
I hope everything works out the way you want it to @rebrascora Fingers crossed for you

I agree, you are doing great! It is good to have targets and getting mostly 5s would be great but remember, as @helli mentioned in another post, that it is all about balance, so don't lose sight of enjoying life as well.

I hope everything goes well for you both. We'll keep everything crossed for you x

Just had a massive slab of chocolate fudge cake so I'm all over this! (thank god I've I've got a 5 mile walk this afternoon) 😉

Perfect. 🙂

G'day all, sunny and breezy here, lovely. Must stop watching the Sopranos, they're tempting me with pasta, those wise guys never stop eating.
 
7.6 :( Work is acalling, have a good day everyone x
 
Another 5.2 reading this morning and I feel well too so I trust the reading.

I am cooking stuffed mushrooms for tea tonight as my wife said that she liked them the last time. Recipe purely made up in my head, on the fly. One 80gm stuffed mushroom is only 40 KCal and 3.5gm of carbs.
 
Morning all,
A 6.2 for me today.
Well done @Gwynn on your HS!
Had blood test and foot check yesterday, feet ok, a/w blood results...
Have telephone appointment with DN on Monday, let's see what the results are!

Blessings Snowwy
