Group 7-day waking average?

7.6 this morning, rather early. I'm so very pleased with that, back in the 7s yay. :D

Happy New Year all, hope you have a good one.
 
Morning all. 4.2 this morning but slightly concerning as was 8.0 at 4.30am so that’s a pretty sharp drop!
 
Morning all, a 9.3 for me today.
 
Morning all and 5 on the dot for me.

Renewed my membership of the idiots club last night. Worked out my meal would need 6.5 units and injected 9.5! Luckily I noticed.

Have a good day everyone.

Its @ very easy club to join isn’t it. Glad you noticed in time.
 
Good morning team🙂

I woke with 5.8, and a straight line overnight with no secret surprises. Sounds like everyone is having a good day, keep up the good work folks🙂

I’ll be having a better day, the snotty cold is in its end stages, and the lift, which has been playing up, is currently being serviced by the engineer. If the lift doesn’t work, I’m housebound. :confused:

Think I’ll have a trip into the village after lunch, bit cloudy but no rain. Footie tomorrow, or, as a Blackburn supporter, another defeat. The mighty West Brom. Sounds a bit like an oxymoron, that, but you know what I mean.🙄

Anyway, it’s hogmanay, so don’t forget your New Year resolutions. At least, not until the weekend:D

Have a good day, everyone, and a happy and prosperous New Year.🙂
 
Good morning everyone. Hope you all have a lovely day.

Woke at 4 am feeling horrible as I usually do in the nines , I was 9.0 due to overtreating a hypo. Went b@ck to sleep and woke at 09 45 to a much nicer 6.3. Hours
 
Good morning 5.3 for a happy me 🙂. Managed to get a head and chest full of psoriasis over the weekend :( off to pharmacist for advice. Well its Hogmanay and its party time, going to watch a local group tonight and there will be a Scottish Piper to pipe in the New year 🙂.

Happy New Year to all lets make it a good one.
 
10:40 BS 8.0. Ok ish! Very late this morning as it took me a long time to sleep last night!:(

Yesterday’s best laid plans more or less went straight out the window after breakfast! I kept going lower than I expected & so, reduced further & ended up reducing too much at dinner. I got plenty of winter sun though, 11am to 4:20pm, in the conservatory reading & listening to Classic FM. Deliberately didn’t test after breakfast as I thought I might be a bit higher & left it till before lunch, 3pm, BS 4.4. Yikes! Not much room to drop before being hypo! Cooked microwave steamed vegetable rice & poured a glass of juice & eating within 10 minutes! By which time, I felt the hypo racing heart & headache. But, it only lasted about 10 minutes. Finished eating & had to decide what to inject?🙄 16 units for breakfast was too much so, 14 for lunch needs to be reduced to at least 12 but, with the near hypo start needs to be reduced further! I ended up injecting 10 units. Tested before dinner at 6pm BS 5.3. Low but, not too low so, thought 8 units would do. But, for safety, went with 6 . After dinner BS 11.1, a bit too cautious but, not high enough for a correction!😱😳:confused:

So, today the tossible, up in the air, plan is 12, 8 & 8 units Novorapid & 24 units Levemir at midday! Those were my normal doses back in October before all this being poorly malarky! I’ll put up with higher BS, if that’s the case, & give it a few days to settle! Then, the longer term plan, I‘ll see if I can whittle the Novorapid doses back down to 6, 4 & 4, or as close as I can, of this summer before the injury malarky!🙄

Wishing you all a day of sunshine inside & out & continue to give what for to those snotty cold virues!😉
 
Happy new year.

Ihope everyone with the lurgy feels much better soon.

Woke up to a too close to the knuckle 4.2 with the Libre line showing quite a time skimming the red zone .
I guess that glass of wine beat the pile of walnuts and those two chocolates.
 
Good morning all.

7.7 for me have a good day all
 
Happy New Year all. 5.3 here, amazingly, after a guestimated correction dose at bedtime after I'd completely forgotten I needed a bolus for that rhubarb gin and ginger ale at midnight!
 
Happy New Year with an added pinch and a punch 🙂

9.9 to start a new finger pricking year off. Not bad considering my pump cannula had nearly dropped off and I was 23.9 before bed 🙄 Nobody said it was going to be easy !

Have a good day everyone🙂

Happy New Year everyone. A 5.9 this morning. Still not over the lurgy, feel a bit better and have been pottering about but not well enough to host our usual New Year Day party. I felt bad cancelling it but obviously everyone very understanding. The plan today is to leave the house, just up to the shed, my poor birdies need feeding. It’s a lovely sunny day so that gives me a boost and some much needed vitamin C. Have a great day and 2019. 🙂
