6.1 for me this morning but hypoed through the night with no evening Levemir and a reduction of 2 units on my morning dose as I did a long walk early yesterday morning before my 7am injection. Still the hypo was easily fixed once I actually remembered to eat the Lift tablets rather than just recording them on my reader and dropping back off to sleep. Thankfully I woke up again half an hour later and took them but it made the red ink on my Libre graph rather longer than it should have been! 😳
I was up at 5am this morning again and this time i managed to grab the last 2 cockerels off the tractor shed rafters. I was a bit too slow yesterday and they evaded me. They are now hanging in my poly tunnel plucked and waiting to be jointed but needed to come in for coffee and breakfast to warm up as it was bitter out there earlier, especially with wet hands. They had a far better and longer life than any free range chicken in the supermarket but they were terrorizing the hens and causing a nuisance for the neighbours with their constant crowing so they had to go. I hate doing it but it was necessary and I had procrastinated long enough..... so there will be coq au vin on the menu as soon as I get to the supermarket for shallots and some vino. They will probably be as tough as boot leather for all the running around they have done but hopefully some time in the slow cooker will help that.
Off out for a walk soon with my mate who is now back from Australia and out of quarantine. Will be good to have a socially distanced face to face catch up!

Hope everyone has a great weekend. Will be thinking about Prince Philip whilst I am out walking (I think he would approve) but no TV so can't watch funeral.
 
5.6 this morning.

@goodybags illness really plays havoc with levels. Take care
I hope that you enjoyed the haircut @freesia and makes up for wobbly week.
Those mini magnums are so small and are so tempting @HenryBennett
Enjoy your break @SueEK

It sounds like we have sun north to south this weekend.
Enjoy what you and keep warm (our heating is still on too @Robin )
 
Is it ok if I chime in? 5.7 for me this morning which given a naughty Chinese takeaway last night (no rice tho) was a pleasant surprise.

Heading to live in a hotel all next week up in the capital city due to work - so it'll be interesting to see how this impacts my BG as well as the stress and long hours of the next few weeks...

Everyone is welcome to chime in. You are no doubt very happy with that reading after a Chinese takeaway. Sounds like you have managing that sorted.
 
A very tough week here. I am getting increasingly worried, frustrated with my wife's behaviour, upset but trying to keep calm.

Some good news 5.2 this morning at 6am. And that after eating a whole M&S chocolate eclair yesterday. In fact 2 hours after eating it BG was 4.9 !!!
 
3.9 Today I'm off to my deep tissue Thai massage first one since covid so I know it's gonna hurt but my god it makes you feel great after.
It’s years since I had a deep tissue massage but I remember the pain well! I couldn’t sit back on my office chair for about five days! It’s worth it in the end though.

Congratulations on the HS and nice to see you back. Sorry things aren’t improving but you know we’re here to support you virtually.

Yeah, right.

It's not often I let a woman walk all over me but today is an exception the pain is intense but I feel like I've taken a Valium about 2hrs after :D
 
5.7 for me this morning after a boozy night out. Bottle plus of Malbec and a full portion of pub chips. I'm simultaneously hung over and full of energy - that's not normal!

Edited to add it was totally worth it!

@Gwynn - relieved to see you posting and congrats on the HS. Sorry for your troubles, you are in our thoughts and here to listen should you need ‘to let off steam’ or just ‘talk’. hugs to you xx
 
That was the first thing. 8.3 on waking. Then before breakfast, it went to 9.9. I decided last of the bread I'd have that with peanut butter for breakfast two hours later it's 7.6. So what makes it go down after eating one day and raises it another. None of it makes sense to me. I would understand it would go up after you eat but then it was down this morning when I woke but I ate nothing until breakfast it went up. One day I have toast it goes up 3 another it goes down. Can someone help me understand why?
