Group 7-day waking average?

Morning folks! 🙂

Well I couldn't make it a hat trick and couldn't even hit the HS so it's a 5.3 for me this morning, even the average of scan and finger I still miss out as it would be 5.1 lol, ah well never mind 🙄

Off out in an hour to go sign on then back to chill and hopefully the postie turns up at the same time as yesterday as I'll be back and I'm waiting on something

Hope you all have a lovely day! :D

That's a pretty accurate sensor! 🙂 I go for my 'training course' on Wednesday to see if I'm allowed to have sensors on prescription 🙂 Perhaps I'll find out I was doing it all wrong when I was using them before! 😱 🙂

That kind of accuracy doesn’t last all day, hahaha.😛

Training course?!! What a waste of money / time - why don’t they just give ev1 the Libre?!! I hate the term “game changer” but the Libre REALLY is...rant over🙄...hope you pass the ‘test’.🙂

Morning all.🙂 8.3 / 8.8 here.:D
 
Morning all, still in the stubborn 6s. 6.7, went to bed on 6.5 so at least I’m consistent. No great plans today, weather has got decidedly cooler the last couple of days but at least I can get something done instead of lounging on, well, sun loungers! Still I hope that wasn’t our summer, that would be a depressing thought. Have a terrific Tuesday whatever you chose to do. 🙂

Morning all
8.6 for me after 3.4 before bed. Maybe tiredness, emotional (made a huge decision) or not eating lots earlier
Slept better and up bright and breezy
Have a good day all

I'm sure it was the right decision @Carolg, good luck with whatever it was {{{HUGS}}}

Reading before dinner was 9.6. Had 5 units of Novorapid. Ate Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes and carrots. 18 units of Toujeo. 2 am this morning woke feeling woozy and very sweaty so had 2 digestive biscuits followed half an hour later by 2 jelly babies. Woke at 6 am to a reading of 2.5.
Toast and marmalade and 2 biscuits. Still feeling a little shaky so a slow start to the day.

Michael, I'm not going to say anything, other than I hope that you settle at more stable levels very soon 🙂

I had to do an online training course yesterday, in preparation for tomorrow's course! Pretty straightforward, but I can see how it might be useful to people who know nothing about the Libre and what the data offers besides a simple number 🙂 I imagine that tomorrow's course will be more advanced, possibly studying the mathematical principles behind the complex algorithms and how to dismantle and reassemble a sensor and scanning device... 😱 😉

Morning everyone. Bin day so street full of bin bags (no wheely bins here) food caddies and recycling boxes. Damn magpies have pecked our bin bag to bits so have had to go out and pick everything up. Stupid birds - nothing to eat in there.

Lovely morning again but a bit fresh, and a nice 5.6 to kick off the day.

I remember it was like that in Folkestone when I lived there - no bins :( One word - seagulls! 😱 Another word - foxes! 😱 It must surely be a false economy not to provide bins, to say nothing of the environment :(

5.8 for me today after an upset stomach during the night. Might account for why I was in the 6s most of yesterday even though I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary. Was so bad I have had to take a day off work.

Sorry to hear you are feeling poorly Lorraine :( Hope you are feeling much better very soon 🙂
 
Good morning everyone🙂

When I woke up I was 4.9, which translated to 6.0 when I became vertical. Being vertical is overrated, in truth, I try and avoid it whenever possible.:D

The other thing I have to avoid at the moment is going out into the village. The pollen count is so high that driving down in the ‘fresh’ air that the combination of car fumes with that means I’ve been needing 6or 7 puffs of Ventolin to stop wheezing when I get back. Nice thing about Ventolin is it’s almost impossible to overdose.:confused:

Anyway, no matter, going nowhere today, I’ve had a text message telling me that Kieran will be delivering a new bookcase this afternoon between 2 and 4. Too much information. What do I care what the delivery man is called? It’s not a flipping dating agency. :D

Have a good day, folks. I will, watching another local derby - India play Bangladesh in Birmingham. That’s a home game for both teams. Odds on you can get a Balti in the lunch break, that’s where the Balti was invented.🙂
 
Ohhhh! @mikeyB I REALLY don’t like using THAT much Ventolin! I’ve always felt my heart racing after using it & that many puffs would send my heart rate through the roof! 😱

My eyes are SO red & raw from the pollen these days! :(
 
Loquacious confession warning! 😳

11:53 BS 8.0. I’m shocked it’s not higher! 😱 It’s confession time! 😳 I ate 4 mini bags of drumsticks squashies before bed last night because I got SO upset over losing a game of golf: actually sobbed for a couple of minutes; then, ate the sweets! 😳 I was promoted back up to a Professional again & was battling all day & losing to opponents mostly in the experts class & just towards the late evening I thought I had turned the corner! A string of wins together & I was above 11000. Risked a 10000 stake game, was winning &about to putt my winning ball when my nerves, emotional ones & not actual, made my finger shake. I couldn’t control it & missed the putt & drew instead of winning. Then, I lost the shootout! I was gutted! :( I cried like a baby & guzzled sweets afterwards like a baby too! 😳 Well, it looks even worse now in the cold, plain, black & white of text & I’m embarrassed! 😳 But, I CARE so much after all the time & effort I spent to be a good player! 😱 I’m abstaining from playing today: clearly at the obsessive stage; crying over losing a game? 🙄o_O

The diabetes fairy was kinder than I expected! 🙄

Another very late Good Day to you all!😉
