Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning all🙂

It’s a beautiful morning here in the Valley. Bit if a chill, but there’s a lovely light mist over the fields going down to the A59 and the river.

Anyway, I woke with a slightly off target of 7.8, but that followed a dead straight gently downsloping line from bedtime, so, like Robin, I must have gone to bed a couple of points high. :confused: Nobody’s perfect.🙂

I was watching Pointless yesterday, and a Scottish couple won with their answer on the names of Scottish Council areas. Their winning choice was Argyll and Bute.

That’s where I used to live - the Isle of Mull is covered by that council.

So, Argyll and Bute, pointless. We always knew that anyway.:D
 
Good morning . Hope you all have a good day. Their is a crisp chill in the air today , just a slight breeze and lovely sunshine, perfec 🙂
Woke to 6.1 with a very wriggly line.
My basal needs have gone up to 11 units from 5 a few weeks ago. This D lark sure keeps you on your toes.
 
Welcome to the weekend, all. 5.4 this morning. Things seem v. stable for now - waking BG in a tight range, daily avg generally = waking + 1 or so. Think I'll cut down on testing a bit & let my digits de-pincushion.
 
Morning all, an 8.8 for me today. On the train to London to complete this year's Thames Path Challenge. I must be mad!
 
Nice day here. Good morning all. Still not posting as BG,s mainly in mid teens since stopping empagliflozin. Got stinking cold and now a chesty cough and really tired. Not starting insulin until after dietitian appointment on Friday. Och well, trying to maintain a healthy diet at moment and not getting stressed.

Hope you are feeling better soon Carol 🙂 The insulin will certainly help to improve your levels 🙂
 
Good morning everyone🙂

It’s raining here. It’s going to be raining all day. That doesn’t bother me much, I don’t have to waterproof up for footie - there’s no home game today, so it’s a hide from the world day. Nobody else in this luxury open prison is moving around either. It’s great being retired - no weekend pressure:D

Anyway, woke with a score of 6.8, which is fine and dandy. Surprising, really, after all the exertion in a dream I had...😎

Good morning folks. I’ve not read any posts yet so I trust all is well with you all.
I am late reporting in due to going back to bed a a while after brekkie as I was tired and didn’t wake up till 12 pm 😱 one of the perks of being a retired person :D
My first waking test was 8.3 😱 my graph showed a sudden sharp rise about 3 am and a continued slow rise after that, It got zapped with my brekkie bolus

I hope you feel better soon that cold sure won’t be helping your levels. Once your on insulin , which I lovingly call my go juice 🙂 you will soon start to see improvements. They will want to bring your levels down gradually .
