Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning all. After a 4.8 mile walk yesterday, up slopes and down again, one hypo of 3.3 and a feeling of well done as I managed to talk most of the way.

DF sitting on my shoulder helping me eat the fish supper and encouraging me to leave some and twisting my arm to have a chocolate biscuit afterwards.

No surprise then that BG was 10.1 this morning or that I slept late. No big walks today

Have a good day all

Well done Carol, nearly 5 miles, I bet you never thought you would be doing that one day. I too had a fish supper last night,( followed by a chocolate biscuit) albeit homemade with oven chips, still naughty enough though! 🙄
 
Good morning 7.0 @07:00, we`ve had rain overnight but the suns shining now.🙂 Go out for my daily walk at noon back up to 2 miles after fracturing right foot,🙄 mind you still got away to go to catch @Carolg.😎

Good luck at Docs @Emma Lowery.🙂

Have a good day folks, give yourself a little treat, you all deserve it.🙂
 
05:19 BS 7.4.🙂 Yay! The same as yesterday! Voice my wish & it comes true?🙄 OR just coincidence?😛:D It’s unusually nice to have two exactly the same waking BS 2 days in a row!🙄 Aww! DF is spoiling me!😉

I finally got around to watching a free rental film from iTunes yesterday! I always buy the series pass for Death In Paradise every year as I rewatch the episodes many times: LOVE that programme! iTunes mixed up one of the episodes & it took some time for them to correct that. I contacted them & they gave me free film rentals for the inconvenience. I only had 48 hours left before the rental expired & spent the while day watching it: slow going as it’s in Japanese with subtitles! I’m also a fan of Japanese anime, Studio Ghibli was the most well known in the west after their surprise Animated Oscar win, & watched a REALLY wonderful film “A Silent Voice”. About a boy who led a bunch of school friends in bullying a deaf girl in elementary school who left to transfer somewhere else. Later during highschool he regrets his actions as he’s alone without friends & is suicidal. He seeks the deaf girl out one last time before he jumps off a bridge! He can’t see anyone’s faces properly or hears what people are really saying around him as he’s so guilt ridden. He sees big blue crosses obscuring people’s faces & imagines they’re saying bad things about him! He finds the girl & he talks to her, having taken the effort to learn sign language. He didn’t jump & continues seeing her. By the end of the fim he learns about friendship & the blue crosses comes off people’s faces & he can hear what people are really saying. A very thought provoking film! He was trapped in a world of silent voices, of a different kind, that was just as silent as the world is to the deaf girl!🙄 I really enjoyed watching it!😛😎 I highly recommend it. iTunes only has the Japanese version but, the DVD has both the dubbed English, a lot easier & quicker to watch at least the first time, & the Japanese.🙂

Anyways, I’m off to breakfast! Have a wonderful day folks!🙂
 
Morning all and a 6.3 for me.

Met up with a couple of my former bandmates last night and over a cup of tea decided we probably had another album in us.

Have a good day everyone.
 
6.4 after another roller coaster yesterday - max 10.4; min 4.5 - for no apparent reason. Do I get my GP to suggest I stop the gliclazide altogether. Decisions, decisions.
 
Morning all.🙂 Libre says 6.8.😛

Oh bu**er, I seem to have conjunctivitis in both eyes...and I thought snot could only come out of your nose LOL. A quiet weekend for me then.🙄

Rock on, @khskel

Hope your eyes clear up soon. @Bloden
 
Huge 17.1 this morning but at least I’m up and about. Lost ability to walk for 24hrs on Tuesday so grateful for steroids again.
Have a great Thursday folks xx
Hope you feel better soon @Bloden

Morning all, 5.6 here half an hour ago, 7.8 now, and waiting for bolus insulin to kick in.

Crikey!😱 A rise of over 2mmol in half an hour?

My DP rise is usually 1mmol/hour unless I’m ill, stressed or in pain when the rise is doubled, even triple sometimes!😱

Is that your usual DP rise? I hope you’re not coming down with something!🙄

Yes, that’s quite normal for me!😱 Thinking about the timing, though, it was more like an hour between readings. I’ve tried everything, the only solution I’ve come up with is to inject some bolus as soon as I wake up. This morning though, I’m away from home, and turned over for another snooze before I injected, so I’m playing catch-up.
 
Morning all, woke to a respectable 6.9.

Fun day ahead, smear test day...the perks of being a woman!
 
Morning! Another wet one, it forgets to stop once it starts, doesn’t it? A nice 6.1 today, hopefully lurgy on its way out, another half decent night after an hour of coughing first. Woke up with a HUGE cold sore, there’s always something. Going to try Sadie at soft play today as she must be getting bored hanging around with her snotty, coughing and sniffling grandparents, although we got it from her in the first place! Have a good day all. 🙂
 
Good morning all, BS of 13.4 this morning . I was 8.8 before going to bed due to exercise. I ate 2 small pancakes (14 grams of carbs each). I gave myself 2 units of insulin before going to sleep. I thought exercise would keep my BS normal throughout the night, but not on this occasion. Hope you all have a great day , Paul.
 
6.2 for me this morning. Currently cruising at 13.1 after conducting a serious scientific experiment. Will not be repeating.
 
Morning all, an 8.7 for me today. Been shopping already to get the last bits we needed for America. I think I have everything now! Dollars ordered too!!!
