Group 7-day waking average?

Eat less and exercise more 🙂

I've gone low(ish) carb, smaller portions and three days on the exercise bike followed by a day of yoga then back on the bike for three days again. I do a 30 minute class, a ten minute cool down ride and then a post ride stretch totalling 45 minutes a day. On yoga days it is usually two twenty minute classes and then a 5 minute core strength workout although last time I did a 30 minute yoga flow, ten minutes of pilates and then a 5 minute core strength (45 minutes again!)
Doh!!

Do you have a peloton?
 
10:05 BS 5.2 😱:D😛😎😉 That’s a LOVELY shock! I hoped for a nice reading & DID NOT expect a House Special!😱

First off, I know I’ve been absent for a few days! 😳 Spring has definitely started & with it the hayfever/allergy season has also started, with a bang in my case, & I ended up with an eye infection that spread to both eyes! Started with the left & through rubbing, although I tried hard NOT to, it spread to the right as well! With copious eyedrops it now starting to come under control but, had to stop all screens for a few days & I just listened to audiobooks so I wouldn’t get too bored: had 2 months of this way back in 2011 when my first cataract crept up on me unbeknownst until I woke to a complete white out in my right eye one morning; relief after diagnosis & expedited eye op! My BS was a bit erratic in the mornings when I woke until I finally either/&/or got my insulin increases right/getting better; might even need to start dialling the doses back a bit now! Just breaking the screens embargo this morning & posting now! Yesterday’s waking was 06:57 BS 9.4, the before 04:19 BS 8.9, 01/03/21 08:35 BS 7.1.

Haven’t caught up on this tread yet & will later: slowly as my eyes are JUST beginning to feel the strain writing this post; you know how slow I am normally & I’m even slower today! Having to correct quite a lot of typos along the way; bet you SOME will still slip by me as I’m a bit foggy still! 🙄

A lateish Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
Congratulations on your HS, and glad to see you back.
 
Good morning,

My read was 5.2 and today I turned 50

Had my GP review yesterday and he gave me the all clear for stopping the Glicizide, thanks for everybody on this forum!

I also gave him my average reads since 1 Feb, per fortnight and he was really only interested in my few highest reads 2 hours after eating or evening which were both 8.9 respectely, never mind

Also agreed for HbA1c and Chlorestral test to be done next week, but as this taking into account the family all you can eat holiday to Tenerife in December, not sure my reads will be that much lower than 102.

Also some other good news, I have been given green light for my eyes from the Eye hospital yesterday, so can walk and exercise a bit again now.

Also I am going for it today, having two small jacket potatoes for lunch with loads of butter and cheese, also will have a small slice of cake, not too concerned about how high my reads go today.

My personal opinion, life can be difficult and challenging, but enjoyment should also be celebrated too.

I will go back to my sad routine tomorrow!

Have a great day everyone.❤️
Congratulations on both accounts. Happy lockdown big birthday, I had a big lockdown birthday last year, looks like my next one “ big one +1” is also going to be in lockdown. Next month. Ach, it’s only another day. :(

@SueEK sorry to hear you're not well. I'm glad you got an appointment through quickly.
@eggyg, Zara is a lovely name :D i'm glad your daughter felt better after her good cry.
@Lanny congratulations on your HS
@Newbie777 congratulations on your HS and Happy Birthday
 
Thank you, God knows how long they took, they put them up individualy and they do look fanatastic.

Also tried one of the nice cupcakes made for me, unfortunately I found out afterwards that they were gluten free rather than low carb, oh well you can't have them all.
 
@Lanny and @Newbie777 Many congratulations on your House Specials and fancy getting one on your birthday Niaz! Good going! Looks like your family have made a real effort for your special day. Many happy returns! Don't worry about the cup cake. Birthday and Christmas are the 2 days in the year when you are allowed to be a bit naughty. Enjoy!

Hello @rebrascora, thankyou, very kind indeed.

Yes, was not expecting the HS read, only had 2 in past four weeks..

My family work hard and have done a fantastic job, we are working class people and proud of it, somtimes money has been tight, but it is not everything in life, personally I think it is the shared experiences that are key, something to cherish and remember. I know I am lucky and so so grateful.❤️❤️

Also, we are a family of big eaters and everything that enters our house fattens up- as there is loads of home cooked food to enjoy. Also in the past that includes overweight goldfish and love finches (in fact we left the cage open one day by mistake and bird was too fat to fly out, oops).

I am greedy, so I celebrate Birthdays and Christmas, plus our 2 Eid festivals Muslim celebrations) and everything else, have to be a bit cautious now though.
 
Hi @Newbie777 and birthday & HS congratulations :DI like the sound of your home life but I'd really like to see the fat goldfish. Your posts make istme chuckle!
Hello @Christy, thankyou very much

The Goldfish have sadly died, but did last 5 years.

The kids are not allowed to have any more pets, the last time they kept on asking about keeping a rabbit and I said NO, as it is cruelty
 
It’s Friday and a 5.8 here. Have a good day.
 
3.8 I like Fridays
 
Good Morning 6.1 this morning
 
Good morning a high 7.3 (as expected)

Happy Friday everyone!
