Group 7-day waking average?

Temperature here is now 41 and later today - 43. Won't be starting my daily reading with the temperature as it might cause some consternation.
Too hot for me.

😱 from one extreme to another! lol, you'd be fine meters generally only produce number readings up to a value of 33.3 then they just read HI so we'd know if you put 40 something it wouldn't be your BG, phew! xx
 
To be worn at all times, even in the campo where I walk my dog. No mask, no going into shops. The bars are now open but I do not frequent bars, people have to take the masks off to eat and drink and I just ain't risking it, particularly as the cases are rocketing since the Spanish government under pressure from the powerful tourism industry are now letting all and sundry in. A hefty price will be paid.

It's shops and public transport at the moment in Scotland, the charity shop where my mum is are only to be allowing 3 customers in at a time, hand sanitiser used upon entering and leaving the shop and a load that I can't remember lol xx
 
3.8 for me this morning.
I actually woke up 1.5hrs earlier on 4.6 and knew it would drop further so had a couple of jelly beans and half a glass of water from the bedside cabinet and went back to sleep but Levemir continued to take me down. My fault because I increased my evening Levemir from the previous night by half a unit as I didn't get out for my walk yesterday, but I was still quite physically active. Not a huge issue waking up on 3.8 though and Libre always reads slightly lower than finger prick for me anyway. DP soon brought me back up.

It is absolutely scorching here this afternoon so I am hiding in the house with a cool drink.

Congrats to @Anitram and @Baz.... who is clearly in a role... Well done!

@eggyg So pleased you achieved your goals on holiday (must remember to check out your puffin photos on the other thread) and sounds like you had a great time. Hope you have a safe and comfortable journey home.
 
The Hospital phoned with my blood results and very pleased.

HbA1c in February was 90, July down to 56. 6th June we reduced Metformin to one 1000 mg and now other drugs to be reviewed, big improvements all round, including Cholesterol.

Just waiting for new batteries to arrive bGeorge firing up the BP machine to do a diary before meeting the practice nurse, hoping that’s better, but was 124/78 with one 10 mg Ramapril.
 
Morning All, well it's a 5.5 for me today and that leaves me on a weekly average of 5.1 and a average for July of 5.7
 
5.2 which is very pleasing considering we had a young friend over yesterday and I cooked a beef curry with basmati rice and washed down with a bottle of crémant.
 
Morning all,
A 6.2 this morning after some evening nibbles at a friends house.
Average for July was 5.75.
Oh and white wabbits!
Blessings Snowwy
