Group 7-day waking average?

June already, how the heck did that happened? A very naughty 7.5 for me as that bloomin’ rhubarb crumble just slipped into my mouth again! Well I can’t be a paragon of virtue all the time. 🙄 Off on our hols today, a week in a quaint cottage in a tiny, coastal village in the Scottish Borders, renowned for its crab sandwiches and being a film location for Avengers: The End Game ( whatever that is) according to my 12 year geeky grandson. The forecast unfortunately isn’t what you lucky Southerners are getting but living in the Lake District means I’m used to it. Not sure if there’s WiFi so this might be au revoir for a week. Good luck to everyone with appointments/ reviews etc, happy birthday/congratulations etc. See you in a week. 🙂

Have a lovely holiday Mr and Mrs Eggy, hope it is everything you want it to be x
 
Morning all, 5.6 here an hour ago, 7.2 an hour later after a snooze. I reduced my basal last night to compensate for the walking we did yesterday, only, unlike the previous night when I should have reduced basal and didn’t...you get the idea.

Enjoy the airshow! 🙂 I used to live near the cliff top in Folkestone and remember seeing the Red Arrows flying over my road - very low! - during the Shepway Air Festival. Always was a very popular event, but not sure if it's taking place this year.

I've also been wondering where @Lanny is - hope all is OK 🙂
 
Hi all, was at 7.4 this morning. Been out for a girly catch up with the bestie.
 
Hello all. 8.2 @ 6.20am which at this time of night seems like a lifetime ago!
 
Sorry for the late report, had a very bad night and morning.

Last evening, for social/family reasons I partook of a very thin crust pizza, just less than half of a 10 inch. Nothing else of note. I’d pre bolussed, and two hours later checked the BG and it was down to 5.6, noting the expected lift after eating to around 8. Fine bit of bolussing, and an hour later took my evening Levemir. Checked my BG, 13.2. with an upward arrow on the Libre. This is now four hours after eating. Got exactly the same result on fingerprick. 30 minutes later, 15.2. A whack of Humalog did nothing. 1 in the morning it hadn’t changed. 2 in the morning no change. Another slug of Humalog (that’s the panic dose) then went to sleep.

So guess what I woke up on? 12.2, again confirmed by BG. Mind you , that was 11.30: but it was a sedately decline from the previous high with no evidence of Humalog denting. A morning correction and morning Levemir has got me back to normal, cruising along in range. 🙂

You know what the most interesting thing is about this? Twice I got identical numbers on the Libre and blood test.😱

The second interesting thing, is where the f*** did all that come from? And where did the Humalog go? It’s working today, so it’s not a duff pen. Same needle (of course), and I’m not sickening for anything.

Answers, as usual on a postcard to the Diabetes Fairy, Harrogate. The postman knows where to deliver.:D
 
04:42 BS 6.1. 🙂

Oops!😳 I'm been VERY distracted lately & forgot how long it's been since I checked in on the forum & when I did this morning there's a load of alerts: the one I noticed was @Northerner wondering about me; sorry about that!😳

I mentioned before that I'm golf mad & took up playing Golf Clash again on the iPhone! Well, I've been playing like a golf maniac & gotten REALLY good, if I DO say so myself: eating, drinking, sleeping, even dreaming, golf! I'm about to be promoted to professional class but, had to REALLY grind it out before when I was REALLY struggling & almost, but, not quite, gave up & now I've become really good: beating players that are ranked much higher than me. 🙂

I've haven't read any posts yet & will catch up later!

A very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
 
I've had some have relief from the hay fever this past week & not been needing the inhalers quite so much, thank goodness! 🙂

I see that the holiday in the US has done wonders for your waking BS @Stitch147 & losing weight too: I wouldn't imagine THAT being easy with the HUGE portions of food in the US; family members remarked on it when they were there & the popensity of people taking on eating challenges to force down MASSIVE amounts of food & not having to pay if they can do it! MADNESS!😱🙄

Very nice to hear your community raising that money for a new bike for Jack, @SueEK ! 🙂

I see your numbers coming down nicely my fellow Northern Irish man @Paul123! 🙂

I'm still golf mad, can't change THAT I'm afraid, but, will try harder to stay in touch on this thread! 😳 Sorry if I've worried you! 😳
