Group 7-day waking average?

Gotta love Disney PJ's.
Havent had them on yet but they are from TruffleShuffle, thinking of ordering a few other designs too xx
 
01:01 BS 10.7. Ok ish only up a wee bit. :confused: Another so, so smile. Decided to up midnight Levemir a bit to 24 units as an experiment to see if I can get the first after meal reading down a bit, that’s the one I’m having the most trouble with, had half an oatcake, half dose 20 units, rounded it up by 1: half of 38 is 19 & odd units don’t really affect my BS; always up or down by 2 units.🙄 Well, I still held pretty steady & when testing just before eating 04:08 BS 10.6. NOW then, this is where the litmus test of the increased Levemir comes to be seen in the after eating reading later?🙄

A very early Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

I made it to the final & will play a bit of golf now while I wait to test after eating. Oh yes! Still no ketones!🙂 Will update later with after eating BS!🙄
 
So close to a HS but not quite as I’ve logged another 5.3 this morning.

Just had a quick glance at the plants on the balcony and all seem to have signalled their approval of my Heath Robinson watering system cobbled out of recycled plastic bottles and wodges of kitchen roll.

I’ve also decided that I’m going to add more scented plants and a hanging basket or balcony box with trailing strawberries or tomatoes so I might, I stress the word might, head out early to a little nursery and see what they have. Failing that I might just walk to the top of a high hill and admire the view before being a child and running down it giggling all the way.

Reminiscent of “Little House on the Prairie”: the 3 Ingalls’ girls running down the hill; Laura with her arms out at the end like a bird! 😉:D😛😎

Edited to correct a typo!:D

:D Yay! 06:20 BS 10.5 MUCH better, ok just over 2 hours by 5 minutes as I was finishing off a hole in golf, & better than yesterday’s post eating BS of 12.8: the only one over 10mmol; the other two after eating were 10.8 & 10.5. So, I keep the doses at Levemir 24 midnight & 42 midday & Novorapid at 38 for all meals until something changes: hopefully BS will start coming down; dial back if/when BS drops too much as I get better! 🙄🙂
 
Morning all,
@Michael12421 The mysteries of DB always expect the uneggspected!
A 6.0 for me which is ok ish... A 5k run coming up so see what happens then.
Well for those who know (and those who don't) today is Pentecost Sunday, the birthday of the Christian church.
I must say with all that's going on in the world today, my prayer might be ' Come Holy Spirit' ... we need your help here!

Blessings Snowwy

It’s Shavuot and it’s traditional to eat diary produce, specifically cheesecake, on Shavuot.
I really miss cheesecake.
 
Morning all, It's a high for me 7.1 this morning , hope everyone has the best day possible today
 
6.2 this morning!! :D
Even better than yesterday.
Even though I ate the 'wrong' thing once yesterday and went up to 9-ish very briefly (back down to 6.6 just before bed)
apart from that yesterday was a good day for my readings.
Didn't do any actual exercise but kept busy with cooking and housework and had a low calorie intake.
 
Morning folks

It's a 5.3 for me this morning, major meltdown yesterday when Bruce came with all my shopping, just seriously feel o cant cope with any of it anymore :(

So stay safe and have a nice day
xx
 
Snap @Gruers and @NotWorriedAtAll 6.2 for me today. Really hot here today. Nothing planned except ironing and a bit more housework and hopefully take a wander later. Have a good day all x
 
No mystery @Michael12421 - some people, myself included, find that the protein in eggs acts like carbohydrate and raises BG. In fact, in the absence of carb the body will convert protein into glucose.
(Sorry if you already know that - teaching you to suck eggs, LOL).
But 6.9’s ok, isn’t it? I’d be happy with that. 😛
 
Morning all. A naughty 7.3 for me. Curry night last night and as we all know rice is the devil’s work but add a homemade naan to that and....wham! I am totally blaming Mr Eggy, couldn’t get chapatis in our Click and Collect so he decided to make the naans! Haven’t had them for a yonk, blooming delicious. I’ll run around the garden today to work it off. NOT! Have a sunny Sunday wherever you are. 😉
 
Morning all, 5.3 here. Off riding soon, I opted for a lesson this week rather than the gentle hack I've been doing, because I felt I need to work harder to build my riding muscles back up a bit. What possessed me on such a hot day!
