Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, the rain is here and it’s wig bashing day, cut and colour, always rains when you come out of the hairdressers! 7.3 for me, had a snack last night when I didn’t need one! After hair do, waxing, then nails. It’s a hard life! Have a great day even though it looks like we’re all going to get soggy at some point. 🙂
 
Wow, @stitch. That’s brilliant. Have you been doing anything differently lately? 🙂

Hello there. 🙂 10.1 here - overdid a hypo snack, oops.🙄
Nothing at all! My waking numbers have been in the 7/8 area since America!
 
Morning everyone. Guess what? It's pouring with rain here in Berkshire.

5.9 this morning. I seem to be on a run of 5 point somethings. That's ten days out of the last twelve. First time I've had a run like that.

I am going fishing on the river Kennet Sunday if it hasn t burst its banks.
 
Good morning all🙂

I woke up on 3.8, after going to bed on 6.2. Dead straight sloping line downwards. Time to lower night time Levemir by 1. No great panic.

Tell you what, I’m rotting away. Very slowed down, and walking has deteriorated lately. My watch is very worried. It’s just updated itself, and I can now give myself an ECG. Not a full one, but it can allegedly detect atrial fibrillation. I guess it could also detect ventricular fibrillation, but as that’s a terminal event if you’re not within reach of a defib machine, I don’t intend to explore that.:confused: At least Apple will know if I drop dead, which is a comfort.:D

Anyway, diet is going fine. I’ve lost 4lbs in a month, which is about right. Just by eating less, nothing drastic. Tonight I’m making Imam Bayildi, but not the traditional all veg, I’m doing a cultural mash up with sliced chorizo in the veg. I apologise to any Turkish members.😳

Well, I’d better go, there’s cricket to be watched, and a body to be showered, so have a good day - I intend to🙂
 
Good morning 9.8 after a very late dinner which included Dolmade's, Greek vine leaves stuffed with rice.😳 I know rice affects me just shows leave it alone.🙄

Good luck @Grannylorraine.🙂

Good luck @Flower, pump and sensors I wish.🙂

Stay loose folks its only going to rain forever, its snowing in Australia at the moment.😎 I wonder if @Eddy Edson has any snow boots?:D Keep well everyone.🙂
 
Afternoon all. 7.3 @ 8.41am for me. 🙂

Should be coming down soon, on second day of my version of Atkins (giving Atkins a bad name!) :D
 
00:40 BS 6.6. I'm ok with that as might be a bit of DP? Went to bed absolutely mentally exhausted around 4/5pm on BS 5.8. Midnight alarm was just after I woke anyway & had my Levemir, tried to get another little snooze but, hunger pangs so, tested & ate. After breakfast 03:39 10.1 which is fine, I'm finding, since I've reduced all my Novorapid doses by 4 units & my after breakfast readings have been in the low 10's, yesterday was 10.4, then, drops back to the 5's by the time I eat my second meal, I prefer to call it that as opposed to lunch, & it's my highest reading of the day! 🙂🙄

I'm afraid I won't be making the cut into the final round of the golf. I found it mentally exhausting yesterday to sustain THAT much focused concetration over 18 holes of golf, albeit virtual, & was seriously out ranked by opponents that are 10, some 20, times higher ranked than me! I got it wrong, again my 1st one & now I know, I only have 1 chance for the final round & have 2 days to play 18 holes! So, I know next time, if there IS one, to take it slowly & not do all 18 in 1 day! I scored -18 for 18 holes & already pushed down to 59 out of qualification with over half my group not finished yet: they have another day to do so!:( Ah well! I learned & know I need to pace myself!🙄

Another VERY early Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉
 
Morning all a 7.5 for me today.
 
Good morning all. 5.7 for me. Pleased at that
 
Happy birthday to me - 65, now officially old.
A disappointing 6.3 for me this morning, so no cake foe me today
 
Good morning all. It’s a miracle! No...not my BG level, which incidentally is 6.4, but the fact it was sunny when I got up at 7! Isn’t now though, sorry! Ah well, another day with the heating on ( Mr Eggy actually lit our coal fire yesterday!). Babysitting day today, that’ll keep me busy, and warm. Have a fabulous Friday, keep those brollies to hand. 🙂
 
Morning all, 6.1 here. Managed to avoid a wake up call at 5.30am, when a party of Rooks has been arriving to empty the bird feeder - I brought the feeder indoors for the night. (Now we wait for the rooks to work out how to operate a latch key and let themselves in to find it!) They can have as many cockchafer grubs from the lawn as they can eat, I'm just not prepared to provide them with copious amounts of premium sunflower hearts meant for the little birds!
