Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning. Had a lovely week with my sister and take her to Baeza this morning for her to catch a coach to take her to Malaga and the airport. A 5 hour journey! Ups and downs reading in mornings - 3.1 this morning.
 
Another self stabbing in the morning and..... 4.5 :D
 
Morning Folks,

Reporting a reading of 8.3 this morning

DSN increased my insulin yesterday to 16 units twice daily - got to tell her my readings in 2 weeks for further review

Not sure how many units I can go up to but I am in safe hands
 
Good morning 🙂

@Northerner congratulations on the house special! :D

Quite chilly but bright this morning, think it'll be a case of finishing my coffee and getting the fleece pj top on, catch up on the Hollyoaks omnibus I missed last Sunday due to the rugby

Anyways 5.8 for me this morning

Hope you all have a nice day 🙂

Bonjour mes amis. A slightly higher than I would like, 7.4. A very late dinner last night as we went for a walk to the next bay and didn’t get back to the apartment until 8.30! By the time we prepped veg and potatoes it was 9.30! Well it’s the Mediterranean way! Last day in Port Vendres, it’s been great, the weather is fantastic. The same can’t be said for the mosquitoes, as usual, I’ve been bitten to death! 😡 I must be tasty! Have a fab Friday all. 🙂

Don’t worry about how many units you can go up to, with insulin you need as much as you need . Your DSN will gradually tweak your doses. A waking figure of 8.3 is not too bad 🙂 a few folks would love to have that number in their repertoire, so you are doing well 🙂
 
Good morning folks . The sun has decided to show it face this morning 🙂.
Not a waking figure as I forgot to scan and after I got up I bodged around doing various things .
6.7 on the finger with a beautiful flatffish from around 1a m .

Hope you all have a good day.

Hope you're not getting bored or homesick yet! :D
 
Morning everyone

Just popped in to say I haven’t abandoned this thread. Test strips do make a dent in the old bank balance, so I’m rationing them these days. I’ve been testing before and after dinner the last few days to see the effect certain meals have had. Knowing the vagaries of the DF, the results wont make any sense at all. But you have to try. :D

Keep up the good work.

Good morning folks🙂

I woke on 3.4, a slow drift down during the night, so it’s a McVitie’s brekky with the double espresso. I don’t do it deliberately, honest:D

Busy day today, Tesco will be arriving with the big shop, and the cleaners arrive today. And I’ve got to talk to the greybeards in Skyrim now that I’m Dragonborn. Killed two dragons yesterday and absorbed their souls. That’s fun, I can now shout at folk to make them disarm, so they are easier to kill. Is that a psychologically normal thing to enjoy? None of them look like Boris or Jeremy:D

The weather is windy and rainy today. Should be better tomorrow for the Rovers game, sunny with showers. I hope. I’ll have to use my wheelchair cape, so I look like Davros from Dr Who. I don’t doubt that will occur to Rovers supporters. I’ll just exterminate them.😎

Anyway, have a good day, gang, one sleep to the weekend🙂
 
Morning all AWOL yesterday due to bloody awful cold which seems to be on the mend. Just managed to force some toast down to keep the ketones at bay.
4.9 when I woke up and involuntary basal testing looks like I've got my Levemir just about right.

Have a good day everyone.

Thanks Lin, my lunch time read was 4.6 🙂

Well done on your HS Northerner. Mine was a 6.2 this morning, need to start getting it back down again and a wapping 7 after breakfast of yogurt and strawberries, I usully have raspberries. Forgot to take it before lunch which was a tomato and veg soup (work canteen) and cheese salad. Oh well I will be able to plan better for next week now I am back in routine.
