Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 8.3 for me today.
 
Morning I’m up here on 19.6 😱😡

The middle of my cannula had somehow lifted out of my skin so I had no insulin, I also couldn’t be bothered to start a new sensor last night as it was late. So what have I learned? The DF is still on her night missions and contrary to my hopes I have not been cured!

Ah well insulin now doing its thing.

Have the best day you can 🙂
 
Morning all, a sunny day here in South Wiltshire too 🙂

OMG @Flower - quick on the treadmill :D

I woke up with a very disappoiting 8mmol I see a few of us in the 8s this morning.
Any way I thought I would go for a short walk about 10 mins before breakfast, and that bought me down to 6.5 mmol
Exercise is a very good tool.

Have a happy day with lower BG for those who need it and higher BG for those who need that.
 
Good morning folks🙂

I woke on 6.2, which is grand. I was lower than that at 3.00am, 3.2, so a neat correction with Dextro tabs.🙂

Went down to the GP this morning with Mrs B to duscuss the hip problems. That’s all sorted, but the doc sneakily gave us both our flu jabs. Don’t mind, saves another visit. Went down by taxi, so used crutches to move around. That got my BG down to 4.7 due to the unusual exercise. Knackered now, of course, and my legs are all twitchy, which is annoying. They do it deliberately to stop my mid morning relax:confused:

It’s a lovely sunny day, though as @Anitram says, it’s going to turn very wet later. During bedtime, with bit of luck.🙄

I see that Labour, if they get into government, say they will abolish private schools. That was their plan straight after the war, but didn’t have the guts to do it. I don’t think privately educated Clement Attlee was fully behind the idea. I’m all for it, at least it will stop all the old Etonian rich boys running the country, with their inbuilt scorn for poor people.

Anyway, enough of all this socialist guff, have a good day everyone, say goodbye to summer, and get some wellies and thermals🙂
 
Morning Folks

Reporting a reading of 7.8 this morning

Been to hospital this morning for eye surgery follow up - all is good just can’t go in day light after eye drops ifor a few hours so sitting with my dog
 
Good morning folks . 4.0 at bedtime with an even arrow which was a good excuse a pack of mini Maltezers :D Woke to 5.9 so maybe I didn’t need all c8 of them lol.

We’re of out for our flu jabs today.
Hope you all have a good day.
 
Oh my, 7.0 for me this morning, which is my own fault, as I ate a mountain of chocolate yesterday. Have not done that in years.

Ach well, time to get back to the real world.

Have a good day everyone
 
Morning all, 7.1 here, had a protein snack before bed (not intentionally, a bit of leftover pork which was looking forlorn found its way into my mouth). I haven’t looked outside yet, don’t really need to, I can hear the rain.
 
Good morning my lovelies! 🙂

Cold and raining here but was roasting last night, think the downstairs neighbours was using their heating but my s t-shirt was soaked with sweat so I had to open my bedroom window!

Have a great day folks! 🙂

A fine moist morning :D.

A late post having had an early appointment for cortisone injection in my hip.
Whilst there they did the flu jab too.

Levels started at 6.3 before breakfast after a mountain range on the Libre overnight.
Now using increases in basal and Bolus to tackle the impact of cortisone.
Two rest days to come
 
Good morning my lovelies! 🙂

Now that looks a nice overnight line.
 
Morning all, 7.9 for me today. Day off work and the weather is miserable.
 
Sadly a 15.2! I visited friends last night and had a small treat with coffee - it tasted very sweet but I must have underestimated the carbs (deli brought with no labelling). My BG was high at bed time so I took 4 extra units which had worked before but not this time. Just coffee for breakfast and a recheck iin a few minutes. ☹️
