Group 7-day waking average?

Hope your mum improves, Amigo. Thinking of you.
 
Perhaps you are brewing a cold or something, hope the lower levels return asap 🙂
Well, to tell the truth i've felt quite run down for at least a couple of weeks. Mainly feel a bit chesty & constant dry throat. Could be the culprit, but i've had colds before with no effect on BG at all.

I'd had little colds and sniffles that hadn't effected me but the last one a few weeks ago made a huge difference in post meal tests! Hope you feel better soon! 🙂 xx
 
Good Morning All

Codefree say 6.0
Accu-Chek say 5.8
Average 5.9
At 5.45 am

Have a wonderful day.

Good morning
6.9 for me again. Three mornings in a row below 7. That's a record for me. I'd hate to think I'm doing something right, but the only thing that's different is I've added a little butter (pure heaven, real butter, God knew what he was doing creating butter) on my green things. Spinach, broccoli - the green leafy's.
Everyone have a good day. Busy day here.

How about for a bit of fun if people who test in the mornings post their waking levels? I think it would be interesting to see what the average works out at after a week 🙂

I'll start with mine - I was 6.0 when I woke up this morning 🙂

(please don't let me be the only person to enter one! 😉)


Mine was 11.5 :-( ....the one thing I really struggle with is getting bloods good over nigh. I suppose last night I had a risotto about 7:30. Bloods were fine before bed. Is it best to have less carbs at night?
 
Good morning 🙂 An out of the blue 8.8 for me this morning 😱 I was 4.2 shortly before bed last night and had a slice of cheese on toast, so I suspect I didn't actually need it to keep my levels up overnight 🙄

Perhaps my result today gives you a bit of a clue, @Lauren8443 😱 Do you test immediately on waking? Many people find their levels start to rise rapidly as soon as their feet hit the floor in the mornings, I'd suggest trying a couple of tests during the night (around 3 am) to see if your levels are actually elevated through the night, or if they just head skyward as you wake 🙂

In China @Northerner 8 is considered an extremely lucky number and you got a double.
I know not good for you just trying to make you smile in the face of adversity.
 
Good morning everyone and Happy Valentine's Day. 8.5 this morning after correcting a 14.5 in the early hours. Got my 75 minute hearing appointment at Boots this afternoon and immediately afterwards I'm going to celebrate Valentine's Day with my gorgeous boyfriend 🙂

Morning folks 🙂
Frosty out today but that should be gone by the time I have to go out
First appointment with psychology this afternoon, feeling pretty nervous and blaming that for being awake since just after 3am!
Anyways 5.2 for me this morning after a vanilla thin (we all up to speed on what these are lol) for a 5.3 at bedtime 🙂
Hope everyone has a great day and hope your appointment goes well @AJLang :D xx
