7.4 for me (which I'm quite pleased about myself because I went to bed on 7.4!)

I must have very lax standards... I still count 7.5 as a win! (I just leave a little longer between injecting and eating breakfast)

I'm getting very hard on myself. I've seen that I can regularly get in the 5s or 4s if I do the right things but I see 7.x as an ideal post prandial figure now.
I'm still only leaving about 5-10 minutes between injecting and eating, which is probably not enough but I do find the humalog starts to have an effect soon after if I don't eat.
The evenign routine (including dog walk) gets earlier as the nights draw in, so it has a knock on with bedtime BGs. I need to mess about with ratios and snacks a bit to find a better balance.
Plus, I had an email which stressed me slightly last night, so that MAY have contributed.🙄

I seem to be stuck at 6.3! This week I have been 6.3, 6.4, 6.3, 6.3 and 6.3! 🙄 Weird, as I've actually increased my lantus by 20% over the past week, doesn't seem to be having any effect.

Forgot this am, my excuse - it was 3.7.
4.3 before I went to bed, did wonder whether to stick a temp basal of 90% on for 4 hours but ruddy think wakes us both up if I do that, warbling an vibrating - and neither of us is getting undisturbed sleep, both in pain at the mo unfortunately, plus Pete has to get up at 05.20 am at weekends cos he works then so I hate disturbing him.
Should have gone wiv me gut reaction I fink ......

What split did you use Mike ?
Seems to have worked well. 4.2 is probably close to non-D waking.🙂

I was 6.4 this morning - still sticking at that 6.3/6.4 waking level that I've been at all week!
