Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂

6.0 at 6am down to 5.0 45 minutes later, this after almost 2 digestive biscuits at bedtime for a 5.9 and a glucose chew earlier for a 5.4 (I wouldn't normally treat that but the last 2 night I've been under 5 about 20 minutes after I tested with the 5.4 so wasn't risking it and decided to just treat it there and then) Tresiba was knocked down to 13 last night so we'll see what the outcome is in a few days 🙄

Have a great day folks 🙂
xx
 
Morning all, 3.4 here, and hovering round the red all night (I’m probably in the 4s, Libre tends to read low at the bottom end) How long does it take to restock a liver? Our local co-op does it in half an hour with one big truck!
 
I'm not even sure the last time I had a haircut! 😱 That will be sorted soon though as the mobile hairdresser said she will be in touch Monday :D xx
I generally get my hair cut every three weeks but because of the wedding my last appointment was only two weeks later. So I told her to just colour my hair and not cut it. Boy, am I regretting that four and weeks down the line. I look like the wild woman of Borneo! This is when I realise I should maybe own a brush or a comb! :D
 
Morning all, a 6.7 for me this morning. Lovely bright sunny but chilly day here in Sussex. Not sure what I’m up to today other than some ironing. Have a good day whatever you are doing x
 
@merrymunky - congratulations.

5.6 for me this morning, but I had already got out of bed ran down the stairs, to find the person walking away saying sorry I am at the wrong door it is next door I should be at, so not sure if that would have push it it up a bit.
 
10.3 this morning. Spent the whole of yesterday exhauseted, feeling like I had razor blades in my throat and a very bad silent migraine. Lots of corrections and increasing my basal rates. Some improvement today but not much energy.
 
Delighted to report another great reading of 5.4 this morning and so far holding steady in range. I increased my basal insulin by yet another unit yesterday and think that is helping.
Had my retinal screening yesterday afternoon and ran back from the hospital, since you can't drive afterwards, so I am feeling a bit sore as I haven't swung the legs faster than a brisk walk in several weeks. Bought some new running shoes yesterday, so I need to get some miles into them.
Hoping that those of you who are feeling under the weather are better soon. Lovely mild-ish, sunny-ish day today, so my bees are flying and taking the opportunity to go to the loo (they can hold for up to 2 weeks and will not soil inside the hive unless sick) and stock up with essential items like water. Always good to see them flying on mild winter days and know that they are still alive. All 8 hives are showing a small amount of activity, so they have all made it this far. GGs are also enjoying the milder weather and a bit of sun on their backs and pullets have started laying their first eggs (got an absolutely stunning green egg from one of them this morning) so feel like there is a new beginning and a promise of spring, even though there is plenty of winter still to come. My improved readings the last few days certainly add to that feeling of wellbeing.
 
Good afternoon all. Bit chilly here in Sale. 7.1 @ 9.27am after a fab night's sleep, low carb does wonders for sleeping through.

@merrymunky - congratulations.
Yes. 🙂
