Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning. Not had the chance to read any posts yet. I hope everyone who is poorly is starting to feel better.
It’s rather brrrr here today and as the weather man says it’s going to get colder this weekend , I’ve got the makings of the first stew of the winter ordered for this weekend, I make a huge pot and I do mean huge so it will do us for several days.
After a 3.5 before bed I Was pleased to wake with 5.1 , 3 glucose tabs were obviously just right for the job.
 
Very late today because of other things... I've still got the lurgy but this morning was 5.1 😱!

I'll never understand D :confused:
 
Evening all. Late checking in due to no internet this morning. It was a 5.0 (4.9 libre) which considering tea yesterday was a mars bar and biscuits due to no time to get a meal between sessions at the snooker was nothing short of a miracle.
I hope your days went well
 
Gutted at 8.5 @ 8.35 this morning. I can't seem to get my readings down lately. Got to eat less!
 
Good Morning/Night/Morning Everyone.
From a cold again but fortunately dry Shanghai.

Accu-Chek say 4.3
At 5.00 am precisely

Wish everyone a pleasant night and the best of days tomorrow..

Storm Caroline is still raging out there @ 03.20am ~ relentless for 24hrs now😱 Its lashing it down too ~ all day yesterday and during the night, it hasn't stopped:(Hope your rooves are still on your homes folks ~ and no trees or debris have crashed down on your homes or motor vehicles. So far, all is in tact here at least until I go outside later to inspect any damage. Stay safe folks it's treacherous out there😱

Good morning / evening Vince. I'd rather have your weather than the shocking weather we're having here in the UK ~ if I didn't have a dental appointment I wouldn't venture out today. I think we're in for more severe bad weather at the weekend too. Stay in China Vince 🙂 Still keeping those numbers low then I see ~ good for you.
 
Good morning . I hope everyone affected by storm Caroline is safe
No idea why I was 8.7 with a slanted upwards arrow before bed, woke to 6.7

Yes WL Thanks. Been reading about the terrible conditions back home. Will have to send someone to have a look at my roof, fences and everythig else in the garden, looks appalling. Here now it is 11C and down to 2C at night.
Yes I am happy with my numbers so far I have a "review" when I get back with my practice nurse so I will show her my spreadsheets, meter readings and food diary etc. and ask some penetrating questions now I understand more about diabetes.
You take care and wrap up warm and watch your footing.

Morning all.🙂 Another 3.7😱. It seems to be my default fasting BG at the mo....ffflleeuurrrgh.🙄

Another national holiday today in Spain.😛 Hope Storm Caroline doesn’t hit too hard...😱🙂
 
Morning all, a 9.4 for me this morning. We have our work Christmas lunch later today. We're going to a buffet place so I know i'll find something to eat.
 
Morning. 8.3 this morning. Ah, I should not have opened that Wolfblass...
And burned last nights sausages as well!
Everyone in blowy Scotland: keep things bolted down!
I'm staying in myself.
😉
I am traveling to west coast, so hope trains are ok
 
Good morning 🙂 still wild out There, was going to venture to the shops but I just heard a bin getting blown over when I was doing my breakfast and sometimes those things are heavier than me!😱 Lol, didn' get to see the big parcel yesterday my mum answered the door and swiftly hid it in her room :( Lol, Bruce did however bring me some Green & Blacks dark pralines so chuffed with that, anyways 5.0 for me this morning, have a nice day my lovelies! :D xx
 
Good morning🙂 5.1 today.

Apologies for any offensive lyrics floating around at 3am 😳 I had cramp down my calf under my plaster cast and couldn't stand up to perform the swearing cramp dance so I just shouted the words instead. 😱😳

Enjoy your buffet Christmas party Stitch 🙂
 
It's snowing here, Yey:D. I love snow and we rarely get it even though towns and villages a couple so miles away can get a few cm we hardly get a flake, but it is beginning to settle. I feel like a little kid, sooo excited🙄:D. To top it off, it is Jet's birthday today - he is 8. He looks just like the pooch in my avatar minus the Christmas trimmings!
Anyway, a 5.5 for me today.
When I read the PIL which can with my TB drugs it said they could raise BG (nice of the consultant to tell me😡), and the last couple of days I have been about 0.5-1.0mmol higher than normal all day. As long as it stays like that, that's fine, but I hope it doesn't get any higher.

Ooops forgot to post my waking earlier. So at 03.35am my bgl was 5.9
Then at 05.00am it was 6.2
Then came a massive shock 1hour post breakfast of 2 shredded wheat with semi-skimmed milk when my meter shouted out to me.....11.8😱 In hindsight I should have had my usual eggs for brekky! Hey ho!!!🙂
