Group 7-day waking average?

Good Morning All,
Hope everyone is well. On waking today my weight has fallen to 16st 4lb. Yes know that still not great but better than the 17 st 2 lb of a couple of months ago, so that’s going in the right direction.
BG was a 5.3 this morning at 07:22. Pre meds and then breakfast of porridge banana and coffee.
Planning on a walk to town this morning, but what’s the betting I get lazy and take the car; (It’s feeling lonely having been ignored since Friday. )
Have a great day everyone.

Morning my fellow bloodletters. A very nice 5.5.

Off out for the day today, we’re going to the Yorkshire Dales, in Cumbria! I know, it’s crazy. There’s a part of the country up here, where we can stand in Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire all at the same time! They keep moving the boundaries, a bit like this government during the pandemic! Anyhoo, no more politics. 🙄 We’re walking along side of the Carlisle to Settle line. There’s a steam train passing the start point ( Garsdale Head) at 11.48am. So Mr Eggy happy and that’s all that matters.😛

Congratulations to @Gwynn and @goodybags on their HSs this morning and to @khskel yesterday.

@HenryBennett I too watched the programme about the Wests. Absolutely shocking. 😡

Have a great day all. 🙂

Morning all, 5.5 here, good call on increasing basal by a whole unit last night (cooler weather, less active yesterday, no wine yesterday evening). This is why a basal you can only tweak every 3 days doesn't work for me.
 
Congrats to @goodybags and @Gwynn on the HSs.

I'm checking in with a 5.7 at 05:56 this beautiful sunny morning.
 
Congratulations, @Gwynn and @goodybags on your house specials this morning.

4.6 for me this morning, after a bad nights sleep, currently with my mum waiting for the doc to call about her kidneys and blood pressure, just trying to keep her calm is a bit of a challenge.

Have a nice day everyone.
 
5.1 for me this morning. Anything but a near miss though as I was up in the mid teens through the night and had several corrections to try to bring things down a bit. No idea what on earth was going on but it started yesterday afternoon when I shot myself 2 units of Fiasp for some soup before going to the dentists and it just continued to rise. I had reduced my morning basal by 2 units (20 down to18) as I had been low several times the day before but must have had about 8 units of Fiasp to try to keep in range during the afternoon and evening and still failed badly and I upped my basal last night a bit to try to compensate. I even ate early for a change (6pm) so really tried to do all the right things. Sometimes I hate my diabetes!
Anyway, today is a new day and I am currently in range, so I will work from there!

Congrats to @Gwynn and @goodybags on your House Special achievements.

Not sure if if I should reply to this for fear of upsetting someone but I will (reply not upset) ….. @KARNAK don’t go. You and your thoughts would be very missed just like @Kaylz. Take care and hope to ”see” you tomorrow. It would be nice one day to actually meet a lot of people on the forum. I don’t post everyday but I do like to see what people are up too and it would be nice to see the real people….. I digress I’m good at doing that!
