Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning folks woke to 5.9 with 4.7 on the Libre with a bootiful flatfish
Hope you all have a good day .
 
Thanks for the congrats! Just done a post breakfast check - been adding berries to my own granola for the last couple of days and thought it a good idea to do a check on effect - 11.5. Mmmm, forget the berries.

What berries did you have
 
Morning all on a somewhat cooler Friday. Babysitting the Lady Sadie, really wanted to take her to soft play to tire her out but have to wait for a delivery, it will arrive between 7am and 6pm! Diabetes review at 2.30, have had the results for a couple of weeks, don’t know what we will be reviewing, let’s hope she hasn’t been on the same “ How to be patronising to middle aged female diabetics” course that @AJLang and @Madeline HCPs have obviously been on! Since my GP surgery joined forces with two others and became a “ super” ( not to be confused with the super in Superman!) surgery I haven’t seen the DSN I “ trained” for 7 years, she has gone on to be a nurse practitioner and doesn’t lower herself to seeing us mere diabetics now! Have a fab Friday. 🙂
 
Blueberries, about half a dozen in 30g or so of granola.

Raspberries & blackberries work better for me, fwiw - I guess because they have a much higher proportion of fibre.
 
Morning all, 6.2 for me at breakfast, more than happy with this. Hope your diabetic review goes well today @eggyg 🙂.

Have a great day all.
 
5.4 for me today, pleased with that after 3 jelly babies accidentally found their way into my mouth last night. I was just restocking the pot next to my bed and I have no idea how it happened, but some were in my mouth.

@eggyg - hoping your review goes well and she doesn't patronize you.

Training up one’s HCPs is so arduous, it took me 2 years to train my respiratory team, and they were lovely; it’s quite daunting to think I’ve got to train up a whole new, and not exactly receptive, team. Good luck, lovely.

6.9 for me, had the most delicious dinner last night, chicken with some sort of crunchy satay coating and halloumi fries, daughter made it and I don’t know how she did it but my BG 2 hours later was lower rather than higher!
 
Just thought I'd let you guys know Bubbles is getting home tomorrow xx
 
A very disappointing 11.3 after a hypo last night :(
 
Not so good :(
Right that's Bruce home from work, turns out the vet are lending him the metal cage he's been in while he's been there so he's going to have to be at mine full time as it's too much for Bruce to have to carry up and down the road everyday xx
 
Really late on parade today,😳 a 5.1 this morning hasn`t been above that all day.😎 Just been through two days posts so apologies if I miss anyone in this addled brain of mine.🙄

Hope your review went well @eggyg.🙂

@Kaylz nice to get Bubbles back, not sure seeing you are not well its a good idea, watch your fingers.

Take care folks, have a pleasant night.🙂
 
02:03 BS 6.5. Not bad considering I woke for a call of nature & jumped at the time: Midnight alarm didn’t go off; iPhone out of battery power. Put in the charger, went to bathroom, tested & had my 2 hours late Levemir dose. Tried to get back to sleep but, couldn’t. So, just finishing off an early breakfast. Didn’t test before as it was only about an hour later before I had a ham sandwich, no butter, & 2 cups of tea with honey: actually made 2 sandwiches but, could only finish one & the bolus had gone in so, had an extra cup of tea; keeping a careful eye in case I hypo from the extra 2 units of insulin for the extra sandwich I didn’t eat.🙄

I’ve been on the new, old, low fat diet for about 7 weeks now & been noticing a slight loosening in my clothes so, weighed myself this morning & I’ve gone down from 79.8 kilos on 21/03/19 before change of diet to 79.6 kilos on 02/04/19 just starting the diet to 77.6 kilos this morning! I suppose it was bound to happen, less fat in the diet, but, I have to say I didn’t expect it & that was with not much exercise! 😱 & a surprised :D

Gave me an extra little bounce in my step! 😛

Another, even earlier, Good Morning to you all!🙂 It’s the Bank Holiday weekend & I hope the weather is nice but, stay sunny on the inside & that keeps things ticking along so much nicer!😉
 
Fab 9.0 for me this morning after a Hi Reading before my evening meal.
No changes to steroids, not on a chemo week so I don’t know what that’s all about.
Did have a lovely fresh BLT sandwich for lunch at the garden centre bakery ... surely couldn’t be that.
Have a lovely day folks xx
 
Good morning my lovelies! :D

Errm was either 7.1 or 7.2 for me, my brains not quite in gear and started my morning routine 10 minutes earlier than usual, only realised when I'd injected and set my alarm for eating breakfast! I've been at the same routine for over 2 years now, how could I manage this now? 🙄

Bruce is phoning his mum in a bit to see if she can take him down from the vet as understandably isn't keen on carrying a large metal cage and he's got to pick Bubbles up at 10:15

Anyways hope you all have a great day and hope my day gets back on track! lol 🙂 xx
