Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning folks🙂

Had a busy weekend, with annoying stuff. Woke up today on 4.2, after a reasonably straight line overnight. Never went in the red zone, though. Ran a bit low yesterday for some reason. I suspect a DF acolyte has been enjoying a holiday hereabouts.🙄

My computer was complaining yesterday about the WiFi. Pitiful speed scores. The Sky Q mini box made the same complaint intermittently. Checked all the speeds in the man cave, mainly low. Phoned Plusnet, who tested the line and found a fault, so they are coming Wednesday morning. That’s a pretty good response time, in my book. No surprise there, Plusnet customer service is excellent. It’ll cost £75, but only if it’s my fault. It isn’t, so it will be interesting to find out what’s up. Meanwhile, I have to avoid accessing the forum on the computer, even the low challenge of posting messages is sluggish to the point of giving up.:confused:

Bit of a misty start to the day here, but should improve later. I gather it’s a Bank Holiday, so have a good day everyone.🙂
 
Hi all, was at 7.2 when I got up this morning. Now on our way home from a great few days in Dorset.
 
Hello all. 7.5 @ 7.45am but 9.2 @ 12.30pm after a stupid breakfast of 3 thick nasty toasts, pkt mushrooms, 2 tomatoes, 1 large yellow onion and 2 fried eggs. I wasn't even hungry. I am at my wit's end with my food addiction. :(

MerryMonkey, lovely wedding photos. I luv those shoes! 🙂

I forgot to test this morning but I’m having a day off anyway!

It’s our 10th wedding anniversary today so we will be eating out for sure.

I love the red shoes
A day off sounds good.
Take care
 
Morning Folks,
Big improvement this morning reporting a reading of 7.3.

Gardening yesterday so we don’t need to carry glucose tablets etc just in the front garden do we - or do we..Couple of hours in and I started to wobble, carried on gardening as didn’t think too much of it and then felt the energy sapping away and by the time I got to the back door it took all my might to get in the house, a reading of 3.1 and a packet of jelly babies and it took nearly a couple of hours before I felt normal again with a reading of 7.9.

Note to myself - if I go then my emergency pack goes too.
Have a good day Folks
 
Morning all, a 7.8 and flat line through the night. Time to do all the washing from Dorset, collect Tigga from the cattery, get some shopping in, as it's back to work tomorrow.
 
Some to 3.4 and slight hypo. Been around 6 - 7 for days but spiked yesterday evening (heat?) so took 2 extra units - it is so sensitive!

What going on with the website . It keeps going to a Parallels page. Server or hacking?

Morning all, 6.3 here.
Those gardening hypos catch me out too, @Rob51, I always think, I'll just finish what I'm doing...no, treat it now!

Yeah Robin,
Exactly that - I will finish what I'm doing - I will be more careful in future as this being the first time I felt that bad it was horribly frightening and made me realise the importance of my emergency kit even more.
 
6.4 this morning after a long long sleep. It must've been that bottle of 12 year Glenfiddich that I drank last night after dinner. 😱 Mind you, it was only one of those 5cl miniatures. Honest! :D

Take care Rob glad you are feeling better
 
Good morning everyone. 4.6 this morning 🙂 yesterday was fun. Mark took me to a garden centre/food hall which has a restaurant that you normally have to queue for. The added bonus is that they have wheelchairs! So Mark wheeled me to the cafe where I had a nice fairly small lunch. When will I learn that lunch and gastroparesis do not mix?? The next few hours were rough and, despite loads and loads of bolus spread over several hours I didn’t get my BG out of the teens until after midnight! But I will probably have lunch again and make the same mistake..,,
