Sorry about insomnia, @Hazel It makes for a rough day
@Bubbsie - congratulations, that is worth celebrating.
7.1 for me this morning. Had 7's all week. Maybe I'll start hitting a few 6's soon. I hope.

I have no doubt you will Sadhbh...that is exactly how it happened for me...really pleased when I started to get 8's...then 7's...and the first time I got a 6...posted a thread here...got so excited...working your way down steadily gives optimum results (my opinion)...you'll be there before you know it.

Snap, so have I Hazel, managed 2hrs light sleep only. No joke this insomnia lark is it? Hope your lack of sleep wasn't anything to do with worrying about anything in particular or feeling poorly - but just one of those nights! I don't know about you but I'll be like a walking zombie later & then I'll have to crash:eek: for a couple of hours. Hope you manage to have a good forty winks later today x

Had a 55 carb moussaka dinner but still woke up at 11.7 after correcting a 12.5 at 3.30am.
Libre readings were low all night but I think that was because I was laying on the Libre arm.

Thanks.
Danger is lurking, though, I am giving myself severe threats. Going to the Theatre Thursday night, tapas bar for pre-theatre. Glasgow always undoes me; and I don't know what tapas is!
But it will be a grand old time. We're going to see Summer Holiday. A local girl is in the cast. Exciting stuff!

Even so AJ I hope you're feeling more yourself now after having a miserable day or so recently. Take care
 
Hi Wirralass I'm getting there thank you very much.

Good morning all and a 4.4 for me which is a bit low, all my readings have been lower these last few days. Trying to think what I am doing different, maybe having more exercise.

Yes you could be right New-journey but better low than too high

Sorry but I don't know what INR levels are but we'll done for getting them right. Good for you re fortnightly appointments, another step in the right direction eh?
 
Morning all! It's a 5.5 from me today. I'm finding that a Lindor dark choc truffle before bed helps with DP.:)

Sadhbh...you'll be fine...difficult to define Tapas...so many different varieties...small quantities of each food...meat...fish...sausage...olives...vegetables...too numerous to list here... plenty of choice with it...and lots you will be able to eat without comprising those BG levels...does sound like a wonderful evening...Glasgow...lively place to be...can see how any 'poor girl' may be 'undone' by it...have a lovely evening.

7.1 is still a safe-ish number Sadhbh, you're only just round the corner from the 6's. Hope you achieve that soon. Take care
 
@Bubbsie well done on your INR levels.:)
 
@Mark Parrott I noticed it was cherry chocolate this time. Does the fruit make a difference at all in your levels? I would love to try the Orange 90% Lindt.

The cherry one is lower carb than the orange. I have an orange one in the cupboard but haven't tried it yet.
