Group 7-day waking average?

White rabbits! White rabbits! White rabbits! :D

Brr! 😱 December already! 😱 At least it's only about 3 weeks until the days start getting longer again and we'll be heading towards Spring 🙂

Showing off this morning :D A great illustration of the Circadian cycle, with a very slight dip at 3 am (right in the middle of the graph) when my blood sugar was at its lowest, then a tiny rise back up again 🙂

Congrats on your HS Northie,

7 for me today, but used my inhaler in the early hours and volterol on my wrist and leg so I could go running on this cold and frosty morning. Last thing I ate yesterday was steak, and mixed salad so don't think that would have caused a 7.
 
good morning from a cold and ice cumbria it a 7.7 reading for me today

I’m also in Cumbria Baz. -5 in Carlisle. It looks lovely but so cold!
 
Good morning with an added pinch & punch, up here on a whopping 10.9. Over treated a 3am hypo , I’ll get it right one day I just know I will...🙄

Nice HS @Northerner 🙂

I hope things are improving for you @KARNAK and @Ralph-YK

Have a pleasant Sunday 🙂

Hi Rob you can and will do it with tenacity and sheer determination. I was dx on 53 and after an intolerance to 'Metfartin' I chose to go down the route of low carb diet and exercise. It took a slow 16 months but I eventually put my diabetes into remission with an Hba1c of 31. So it is doable.....and remember we are a friendly bunch of sods here and will lend our support so you're not on your own in your quest to succeed. Good luck and do keep us updated with your progress won't you?
Take care.

Another 5.2 for me this morning.:D
Are these house specials like buses?😱
You never see one for ages then 2 or 3 of them come in a short space of time.🙄

Sod's Law dictates that the above statement means I'll never get another one.😛

Have a great start to December.

5.6 this morning with a thumping headache after a humongous 15.6 last night. Completely my fault as had pie and chips after really busy day non-stop cleaning. They have changed their pies which were bigger than normal and after a 90 minute wait for them I pigged out and ate the lot, something I definitely won’t be doing again. Had never had a figure anywhere near to that so was a real shock. Live and learn I guess.
Love to @KARNAK thank you Baz for the updates. Glad all is going well @merrymunky . Take good care @eggyg.
Have a good Sunday, have to finish cleaning and put Christmas tree up if I can hold my head up long enough x
 
Good morning folks. It's a Brrrrrr ccccold frosty one today!
Officially zero° here but outside temperature gauge reads -3°
Wrap up warm guys & gals and mind your step on the frosty pavements. Very pretty and all that but could be lethal as @eggyg knows all too well.
Take care everyone.

Back again!
Todays Bg readings 14.6 and 14.3. Wtfuf is going on? Lower than yesterday's 16.3 & 15.7. I didn't realise that very strong meds impacted bgs. I still have a temperature tho ~ could this be the reason my bgls are high I wonder? Anyone? I dont have much of an appetite so it can't be out down to eating what I shouldn't.
I'm keeping myself hydrated too with plenty of water. Just going through the motions here & waffling!
Anyway I have an appointment to see my GP on Tuesday ~ maybe she can shed some light.

Congratulations on your HS @Northerner and @MeeTooTeeTwo, I hope I haven't missed anyone.

5.3 for me today .
They said it’s not so cold as yesterday here in Kent today, I don’t believe them. Brrrrrrrrr.

Any infection can affect our BG, if your on steroids they usually affects it massively
