Group 7-day waking average?

A second day in the 5s for me with a 5.7 at 05:54 on a freezing cold day in West Berkshire. Had to scrape the ice of the car this morning. We are on top of the Downs and it was a lovely clear day. Left home and dropped down the hill into the Pang valley and ran into thick fog. Looks like freezing fog is on the cards for tonight and tomorrow as well.
 
4.3 for me this morning. I took my BG up to 11 before bed and went to bed late (3am 😱... sat up and watched Billy Elliot on DVD) and the slow steady decline was the same but starting higher and not sleeping so long meant I didn't drop below the line or need jelly babies. I have decided to stick with 15 units of Levemir today and see if I can keep things in range having started the day on a more level playing field than yesterday. Will use Fiasp if necessary to keep me in range today.

@eggyg So relieved to hear that things are moving but no doubt not as relieved as you are! Hope you get a pass home today and good luck getting started with food again. Keep us posted.

@MeeTooTeeTwo Good to see you hit the optimum target yet again Dez. Nice one!

@Lanny Good luck with the exercise today. Hope it helps you as much as it is helping me.
 
I’ve been deciding whether to spend the money on a new iMac. My old one is over seven years old, very arthritic and can’t be upgraded to MAC OS 11.

I bought into the Apple ecosystem many years ago because, as the Apple fanboys say, “It just works.” Less true these days as technology has advanced. Anyway, ordered a new shiny ‘puter from John Lewis. Wrongly delivered but I received a text to say delivered and signed for. Fun and games getting it here. Then fun and games migrating from old to new. Over six hours just transferring the data and a number of days getting the individual accounts working again with iCloud. All sorted this morning.
 
5.6 this morning for me. Which isn’t bad at all considering I indulged in a lovely stone baked baguette yesterday.
 
Evening all. 6.8 @ 9am after a weird night.

I'm watching Secrets Of Your Christmas Food, apparently we spent a million pounds on mince pies last year.
:o
 
Morning all,
A 6.1 for me today after a 😱 wide-awake period in the night for no apparent reason!

Oh well, onwards and upwards!

Blessings Snowwy
 
6.2☹️ I now know that apple crumble is a no no!
 
Morning

Well its absolutely baltic today so heating on to try and get a little warm before we're without it for the day :(

Anyways it's 8.1 this morning, self inflicted of course but on purpose
