Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning from a very cloudy but warm E Kent.
Hope you all have a good day.
After treating a 3.2 in the wee small hours I was very pleased to see a 5.3 on Meter and Libre totally agrees.
What supprised me is what the graph showed after treating with 150 ml full fat Coke and two slices of buttered wholemeal bread with peanut butter

I fully expected to wake much higher.
East Kent.....Paradise 🙂
 
Made In Heaven 6.7. Did I eat a Big Mac Meal with a McFlurry at 3am? No....dang Dawn Phenomenon is getting on my final nerves. If I ate a cobweb at midnight I'd get a 10.9 at 5am. :(

DP is the pits, isn’t it, cobwebs are too high in carbs for me CEFE500C-6340-4627-BFD4-0A6F203CF465.gif:D

You’re right about E Kent, I love it here.
 
Was that your food fantasy?:D:D:D What's the phrase for that: Gastro Porn?😛
Yuk, no, havent had McDs in years, my gastro porn is Carbonara pasta, my carb downfall. It's not so bad, lettuce is a good substitute *cries*
 
In the range 5.7 - 6.5 over last 7 days. Which is down quite a bit from previous reads. A bit puzzled: I've had a lingering cold (winter here) which means I haven't had as much exercise; and I thought colds etc tended to increase BG? On the other hand, appetite's been a bit subdued, or maybe the Metformin's tightening its grip after ~2 months of 2x1000mg, or ...? This diabetes thing is complicated!
 
Morning all.🙂 8.8 here - but at least my overnight drop wasn’t a whopping 9 or 10, like I’ve been having lately. Time to tweak my boluses!😛
 
Good morning 🙂 7.5 for me today, after an 8.0 before bed, happy enough with that 🙂 Sunny with blue skies this morning, thank goodness we've finally seen an end to that dreary, drizzly, cloudy weather we have been having...erm...yesterday 😉
 
Good morning from a sunny but slightly chilly E Kent .
4.9 on both finger and Libre. Seems my BG went hill climbing while I was slumbering , then it decided to come back down all by itself. I really don’t get it.

Anyway folks I hope you all have a nice day, with excellent numbers.
 
Good morning 7.2 here and a nice sunny day. I'm looking forward to going for a wander round the grounds of the local Abbey. Fingers crossed the Gabenptin is kicking in and helping me to a walk a little further than I could before 🙂
 
08:04 BS 8.0. Ok,ish!🙂 Went to bed on 7.1 last night!

It’s a nice bright morning today with some light cloud & I hope it’s nice where you are!🙂

Good morning everyone!🙂

Just had 12 units Novorapid so, must get cracking on cooking breakfast & stop gabbing!:D Will catch up later!
 
Morning all, 5.8 here.
S'not fair, everyone else seemed to have rain yesterday. We haven't had a drop for a month now. Is the lawn supposed to crunch when you step on it?
We also haven't had any rain Robin. I'm beginning to wonder what it looks like 🙂
 
Good morning...not for me.. BG 8.6 this morning, but think that I perhaps have lost my wee pouch with credit cards (don’t usually carry them) 2bank cards and worst of all driving licence. They might be at work but no access till Monday. Eeeck. Lots of calls to cancel cards( mostly all contactless) but they haven’t been used, so that’s positive as just got paid. Off to building society to take out dosh, and police station to report loss, but phoned them already. Change of plans for day, so sitting having a coffee before I get going. Hope everyone,s day is better than my start.

Ack! Sorry to hear about the cards @Carolg :( Good to hear they haven't been used, and I bet they are lying there at work - hope so, and I hope it doesn't take too long to get them replaced 🙂
