Group 7-day waking average?

Morning Folks

Reporting a reading of 9.9 for this morning

lovely cold morning on my doggie walk hope it’s the same tonight for my bike collection.
 
Morning all, 4.5 here, and that’s still on the reduced basal. I deliberately underdid it so there’d be no possibility of being low this morning, as I'm off for fasting bloods in a mo, and look what happens! I suspect the Diabetes Fairy has got loose again. Meanwhile, I'm counting the minutes til I can get back and have brekky, and more importantly, a cup of tea!
 
Morning. Yet another frosty morning. A 6.4 on the Libre and what I thought was a perfect flatfish, then I put my specs on and it was a bit wobbly, but still within range. Injected my basal and 6 units of NovoRapid and went in the shower. 45 minutes later 8.1! That Dawn woman has a lot to answer to! Have a great day, I’m off to the dentist, just a check up thank goodness. 🙂
 
Forgot to say “I’m impressed” @eggyg! I hope the weather was good and the views stunning.😛

Thanks. It was a beautiful, sunny but chilly day. There was ice when we got to the summit of Bleaberry Fell. The views over Derwent Water and Bassenthwaite Lake were stunning as usual, I never tire of them.

sorry to hear this Ted, hope you are feeling a bit better today. Take care and rest up xx
 
Good day all. 7.8 and have just had a go at mowing the lawn with the new mower. They don't make Flymo's like they used to. 🙄
 
My first mower was only £30, no grass collector, one metal blade. It was fabulous and still going decades later but then I used it on 2feet high grass and did for it. I wish I'd kept it and got it mended. The one I used today felt so light and plasticky. Grass is a mess! I have had loads of Flymos over the years, I could start a national collection. :D
 
Well, I had am 8.2 yesterday morning and a 12.3 this morning which I am really disappointed with. I am following DAFNE principles and I even upped my basal by one unit last night. What I have changed is that I have increased my carb intake a little and whereas before I was eating a small portion of spuds or sweet potato in the evening, I have had 70g precooked whole wheat pasta the past few days for dinner as well as a couple of crisp breads with soup at lunchtime, so I am eating wholegrain products which I have avoided until now. Breakfast of Granola, berries and yoghurt seems to be fine but lunch and dinner seem to be stacking slow release carbs which are still releasing after my quick acting insulin is gone. Might go back to tatties tonight and see if I can get back on track.
 
Late posting but I had a lovely 5.2 house special this morning 🙂
Congrats. Isn't that your second in 3 days? Well done!
