Group 7-day waking average?

6.9 for me

Check in at hospital after DAFNE course today well pleased on both sides Hba1c dropped by 8 to 51.

I’ve experimented with granola (photo below) and Greek yoghurt for breakfast. Gives a slight rise back down to lower than started after 2 hours. Doesn’t taste too bad either!!

Eg: 7.3 to 6.6
Eg: 8.6 to 6.5.

Hope everyone had a good day.

I used to eat Dorset Cereals Honey Granola with Skyr Honey Yoghurt every morning, I absolutely loved it but got fed up of it after about a year lol xx
 
Very true @Kaylz 🙂 Once you find something that “works” and eat it lots you do get fed up of it😱.....a year is quite impressive, I’ve only been eating it for 3 weeks!

Talking of fed up.....For dinner stir fry........yuck at the moment! Any alternative suggestions gratefully accepted !!
 
5.8 this morning

I slept like a log last night

I woke up in the fireplace

Dez o_O😛
 
Up at the crack but I see @Northerner has still pipped me at the post, excuse the pun! @MeeTooTeeTwo boom, boom, the old ones are the best! Been awake since 4, had a wee, and have tossed and turned since, too hot, uncomfortable, restless legs. Can’t have my basal yet as not 7 hours since last night’s. A high, for me, 7.2. Is it because I’m up early? Or the two chocolate digestives I indulged in at bedtime? Answers on a postcard please. 🙂
 
Morning all, 7.2 this morning [face plant]. Now it’s an even after the decimal point so there is that, but my aim is under 7 and it’s just playing with me now 😉. We don’t normally hit playtime until autumn, that said yesterday was like autumn here with rain, wind etc so maybe Patty is confused. Join the club sweetheart, I’m constantly confused, what with Trump, Boris, clean eating, selfies and Brexit, I don’t know whether I’m coming or going 😱
 
Wet here too but muggy! A 6.7 this morning. Waiting around for a: the roofer and 2: DPD. For a bit of excitement I’m popping to Asda later and for a treat I might venture into B&M, which is next door, for a tin of salmon and end up spending £42.37! Have a terrific Tuesday. 🙂
I ventured in to Asda last night after work. Ended up spending £92 and a wee trolley that I almost couldn’t push. Stocking up before no wages
 
6.0 for me. Up early to go for review for diabetes. Yuk. Good news...Monday should be my last working day then holidays till finishing day...5 more sleeps
Have a good day all
 
Morning all. A 7.8 for me today. Had a great lunch and catch up with a friend who I used to work with, finished off with a nice little shopping trip at Westfield.

It was getting too expensive as well, a 500g box of granola was over £3, just checked and it's up to £4 now, I eat jumbo oats now and get 2kg for £3!

As for dinner, I', probably not the model pupil as I have potatoes every night but I only eat 30g carbs in total for tea, I have corned beef & mushroom omelettes, chicken breast, mince & mushrooms, minute steaks, fish etc and veg with them xx
 
Good morning folks! 🙂

Was drizzling when I got up at 6 but seems to be drying up now

Anyways, 4.3 for me this morning, will give it 1 more night then consider reducing the Tresiba as this is a waking number after a rich tea biscuit for a 6.0 at bedtime last night 🙄

Have been having a bit of an argument with someone on an eliquid mixing group on FB as they were trying to tell me I was wrong about something when I knew fine well I was in the right as I'd checked through the companies safety data sheets and spec sheets well the company has sorted that in a response email showing I am in fact correct so screenshot uploaded and tagged the lad, don't mess with me when I know I'm right! :D

Have a great day my lovelies! :D

6.2 this morning and aching all over, I don't have time to be ill now as I have a birthday cake to make for the weekend. Also at my last prescription I have a different brand of Metformin and it is playing my digestive system up again, not pleasant.
 
5.8 for me in dull West Lancashire. Hardly had anything above 5.5, even when checking for highs, over the last four days. Mostly 4's and 5's. Previous week or more had been 5's and 6's and occasional 7. Dunno why, nothing has changed.
