Group 7-day waking average?

Very late to the party today, t’internet was a bit dodgy first thing then I got stuck into my ironing, well you know what it’s like. Anyways, snap with @Northerner and @merrymunky a very normal and nice 6.3. I was a good girl yesterday. We have good news, almost five weeks since our collision with the sucidal sheep our car is ready to pick up this afternoon! Hurrah! Thank goodness as I can’t stand Mr Eggy whittering on about the courtesy car we got, “too sluggish” “too big”, “wobbly” etc etc. Of course he was never going to be happy unless it was an F Type Jag was he? Going on our hols on Sunday so it also saves me the hassle of changing the reg of the car on the airport parking we have pre booked. Enjoy the rest of your Friday, I’m starting to pack my suitcase. :D
 
10.1 for me at 0700, but now been for 6.3 mile walk, and 4.6 after 3 jb,s a wobble and cereal bar to head off a hypo.
Have a good day all

That's a good long walk @Carolg! I walked 5.8 miles the other day and I was worn out! 😱 🙂 Good job topping up to head off the hypo! 🙂
 
Good morning 5.7 dropping to 5.0 two hours later 09:00.🙄 Council Tax bill just in, gone up 4.1%.:( Not much to report, thanks for the Moussaka tip @mikeyB.🙂

Enjoy your day everyone.🙂
Thought at first you meant your levels had gone up 4.1 when you saw the bill! 😱 🙂 Mine has increased by a similar amount. It's quite a bit more than what I was paying in Southampton and I was wondering why - checked and I see I am now in Band C rather than Band B! 😱 🙄

Thanks Alan. It’s a slog getting used to longer distances, but getting our speed up as well. I have a new hypo sign, early doors, I get a bit stotty, so have something then
You will get your time up, but mind your health as well

There’s enough room in the boot of an F Type for all your holiday Luggage?
 
Good long walk Carol, your doing very well.🙂

Same with me @Northerner, I think the alphabet needs rearranging.🙄

Still won`t get your horse in @Robin.🙂

It’s a surprisingly large boot, we have a coupe as opposed to a convertible, they have little or no space. We take the shelf out and can fit two cases in no bother. When we holiday in this country, we squash walking boots, wellies, rucksacks, raincoats, cool box and food in as well! :D

True, our son has the coupé, and manages to fit his dirty washing bag in when he comes home for the weekend.😱 (He drives one to show faith in his product - he worked on the engine development!)

Oh interesting fact, will tell Mr Eggy. We have the V6. It was our retirement present to ourselves 18 months ago, not very practical when it comes to grandchildren, but we manage by borrowing our daughter’s car, which used to be ours!
 
03:54 BS 6.3.🙂

Didn’t feel all that good yesterday because I only ate twice as I’m definitely beginning to feel that slow blocked up digestive system feeling that just got progressively worst until my fatty liver diagnosis 7 years ago. I KNOW now what it is when I didn’t then: save myself months of discomfort! So, ordered more food to be delivered today & I will have to be ruthless in throwing out all the things I can not eat right now: eggs, cheese, red meat, battered fish, oven chips, carrot cake, nice biscuits, scones etc.

New food being delivered from 2pm to 4pm will be all be vegetables, salmon & prawns. Although I’ll maybe freeze the salmon & leave that till later to give my digestive system a chance to clear the backlog created by the slow processing of fat: healthy fat in the salmon is STILL fat; can’t handle the fat in chicken yet either!

The last thing I want right now is breakfast as I’m still feeling backed up! Will have usual half oatcake & half breakfast dose of insulin. Then, make myself vegetable soup when the shopping arrives. If I get hungry before that I’ll have cornflakes!

A very early good morning to you all & I wish you all a good day!😉

Hi Ted thank you very much for asking. The roller coaster continued all day by the 4pm low sugar I overreacted and over treated because I’d had enough, but I’m ok now 🙂
4.8 at 5am this morning so had a can of full sugar Coke. It just worked - 4.1 when I got up at 7.30am so I had another small can of full sugar Coke. Am hour later I’m 7.3 which I can cope with 🙂 and it’s going back down 9.15am 5.6

Morning. 7.3 for me. Not too bad considering my 11.6 after tea last night. I think today will be a bit of a struggle to keep my levels stable.
 
Good morning a 4.1 today and a drum troupe are playing in my head. 😡

My contact lens won’t go in my eye with sight today so there’s a high chance I may walk into a well camouflaged lamppost or other street furniture whilst out!

Have a super Saturday everyone. 🙂
