5.4 this morning so still heading back down which is cheering. Miserable grey, drizzily, mizzly day with visibility down to about 200m. SAD lights blazing in house. Fat pony up to hocks in straw and munching meadow hay. The resident Wolf, who is a bit of a wimp, having shot out and back in at jet speed, has broken his fast and determinedly gone back to sleep. I am planning on finishing the great barn clear up and making a start on the workshop. Need to get it done before the new pc arrives and I have to learn how to work with Windows 10 pro. Wish I was l less of a computing numpty.
 
Today's reading was 4.6
Week average = 5.0
Month average = 5.4
3 month average = 5.3 🙂:D

Morning

10.1 after requiring some Lifts 🙄

@Robin @khskel was logging in (I check this if a regular doesn't post for a few days as at least that gives a hint that they are ok) but he hasn't for 9 days so very concerning

Hope @Bloden is also doing ok! xx
 
Bloden was off to Spain for the whole of November, and warned that her wifi would be very dodgy.
Yeah I know, she was going to be popping on whenever she could but clearly hasn't had a decent enough reception to do so xx
 
8.3 before breakfast and then I swept up leaves in the garden again before brekkie and up it went to 8.7. How does it do that, waiting for it to drop before I eat anything. It’s warmer here today. Have a good one everyone
 
Morning all. 10.1 for me today. Starting to see some lower daytime levels too now so what I’m doing just me laying off somewhere. Onwards snd downwards.

It’s really annoying, isn’t it, when the message goes to the Liver 'Exercise alert, we need more glucose' and there’s already enough sloshing round in the blood to provide cover.
 
Good morning everyone hope you're all well 🙂
7:48am it was 5.5 for me and 15 units of tresiba done
22:45pm before bed 6.5 and had 3x rich tea biscuits 18g of carbs no humalog
18:49pm before tea 6.0 - 89g of carbs - 8.5 units of humalog for food
 
6.1 when I got up but that was engineered by a correction a couple of hours earlier despite injecting 4 units of Levemir last night (an increase of 4 units as I had been on 0 for over a week and still hypoing) and upped my morning Levemir by 2 units today as I spent all day yesterday injecting corrections, so hopefully that will fix it. No idea why. Don't feel great but not unwell and I am pretty much over whatever upset my system the night before last and slept quite soundly last night.

@eggyg Elaine, you are amazing! Don't suppose you would notice an extra guest in amongst your tribe. I could save you the 1st world problem of dealing with leftovers! 😉
 
6.4 this morning, not so cold. Maybe today I'll get the wrapping up finished, but not counting on it with all the stoppages I've had this past week lol - but if my granddaughter is brought over to play, then nana has to play, dem are the rools! :D
 
After a few days break from testing I'm back on the case today. Really felt I needed a break over the last few days. I've been eating sensibly but just couldn't face the morning finger pricks until yesterday.

So, yesterday I got a 5.7 at 05:15. My weight was up to 13st 10lbs so put in a bit of effort. Today's score was a 6.1 at 06:32 and weight was a bit better at 13st 8lbs.

I hope everyone is having a good week

Ahh Barbara you’re more than welcome, but I have to say leftovers don’t exist in Eggyland! I’ll boil another egg! :D
 
A device for x-raying tuna? 🙂
It was used to work out why lobsters change from blue to orange when you cook them (changes in the protein structure) but not sure about tuna....
 
5.6 with a nice straight line overnight.

I am in awe of @eggyg and all the catering! Is this Mary Berry series new, or is it a repeat?
 
Morning everyone 🙂
8.3 on the meter and +1.5kg on the scales in 24 hours. :confused: Body is having "one of those days" today it seems.
At least my BP is behaving this morning 😉

A new one. Thursday 8.00pm BBC2, followed by Nadiya Hussain at 8.30. I find the Mary Berry one more restful, I like Nadiya as a cook, but the programme has been jazzed up with masses of vibrant colour (her clothes, the background decor, not just the food!) and I find it a bit of a strain on the eyes.

It’s a new one. Thursday night BBC2 8pm. Followed by Nadyia then turn over to BBC1 for Masterchef. I’m stuffed after all that! I’m a cookery show addict.
