Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. 7.8 for me today. Weekend off work, nothing much planned.
 
Sunny but chilly here today but not as cold as yesterday. Got hubby to bring my boots and gloves when he came down yesterday. Managed to get Misty out once yesterday which was a miracle, she must have known my friends were bringing the dog buggy down. I put her in it and what a laugh, a Staffordshire bull terrier in a buggy. Thankfully it has a hood with a black netting that goes all around it so you can’t see her that well. I shall be using it if I can’t get her out because I want to go walking and don’t want to leave her in the van. I’m sure after a while I will be able to get her out and she will walk but we’ll see.
Anyhow a 6.2 today and lots of jobs to do today.
Have a good day and yet again stay warm x
 
Morning all on this sunny, frosty morning, yes you read that correctly, there’s been a ground frost up here. Even now there’s still frost on the roofs. Heating gone on with a vengeance this morning! Back to the real craic. A very nice 5.5 today, that means I don’t have to wait an hour after bolusing for my breakfast. Thank goodness, ‘ cos I’m Hank! Have a superb Saturday.🙂
 
08:46 BS 7.9 🙂 Ok a smidey wee bit above target but, anything lower than the last 2 days I’ll take!:D
After meals readings yesterday was just a bit higher but, I think will settle with the lowered LR doses & I’ll give it a few days before deciding if the NR needs a wee tweak? 🙄

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

PS:- It’s nice to wake up headache free this morning although, I was a wee bit apprehensive about what figure would come up on the meter?🙄:D😉

I've already said the first thing I'll be doing when I move in with Bruce is treating myself to a long lie the first night! lol, hope you have a lovely time, its tough not seeing Bruce just now but hopefully in a few weeks xx
 
So last night was my chocolate bar night.
100g of Galaxy.
Was 9.1 at 1am which was reasonable but then went to 13.6 when I woke at 3am.
Took 3 units of bolus and this morning I was back to 6.7 at 9am. My aim to check my basal had to go on hold.
Looks like chocolate night might need to either calm down a little or I might need to take the bolus in two chunks as a habit.

I have gone back to using the 1st drop of blood and have stopped using the deepest setting on Lance so things are less painful and difficult.

6.7 is my new lowest morning result so happy with that.
 
Another morning, another 4.7 :D.
 
5.7

Have you tried Aldi's Moser Roth 85% dark chocolate? I bar is only 4g carbs, it doesn't seem to affect my BS though everyone is different

They are portion controlled to 25g bars though, I know they say in theory as a Type 1 you can eat what you want but remember you dont want to be having large spikes etc so I personally think 100g galaxy is a bit excessive and I wouldv'e thought the same diabetic or not, they aren't really for eating all in one go xx
 
Wow! Chocolate night! You T1s have all the fun 😉 Still, as I was my usual 5.2 this morning I'm not grumbling...much!

It wasn't that long ago that I was munching my way through a 200g bar in one sitting and then reaching for the jelly babies afterwards. I miss the innocence of my youth :-D

I think the problem is the spike. It's the only thing I have with that level of sugar in it. The 85% stuff might be a bit bitter for my taste so I might be limited to just having a few squares of the good stuff at the weekend from now on.
