Soon I hope you deserve it keep at it you WILL get there :D
 
Morning. 7.5 for me today.

Lovely morning out and looks like a lovely day ahead. So catching up on gardening, grass needs a cut and a few bits to go in raised beds...although need to dodge the bees...they seem to have set up home in our apple tree :(

Outdoor fabric (lime green) has arrived for making garden bench cushions for a friend. They’re rather large, so will be crawling round the floor cutting those out. Husbands cricket match is on, so he’s a happy bunny.

Now need to get out for our walk, for one reason or another we don’t seem to have done that this week.

Wishing you all a lovely Saturday 🙂
 
Well done on the weight loss since March @Grannylorraine. Who’s imposed this 3-month deadline, if you don’t mind me asking? I agree with @Maca44 - not very helpful. Anyway, it sounds like you’re working really hard, so give yourself a big pat on the back.
Hi Bloden, it is the diabetes nurse, I haven't got round to updating my signature but my latest HbA1c result was 64, so deffo needs working on, but as a family we have had a tough few months and my diabetes was not my main priority. thank you for asking.
 
Morning

It's an 11.2 for me this morning, a combination of biscuits, going to bed angry and very little sleep I suspect 🙄

@Northerner I'd noticed that about meter boxes, Ascensia might have stolen KookyCat's idea as some of their boxes have 5.2! Although googling them some seem to display 9.3, not sure what was on mines 😳

@Maca44 nice! I have a set of angel wings on my right inner forearm
xx
 
Forgot insulin last night, no judging please so 18.2 . But this is how I started my day. View attachment 17614
We don't judge here, your not the first and you won't be the last so don't worry about it, just carry on and put it behind you xx
 
4.6 and a sunny start to the day so garden beckons methinks.View attachment 17610

This is one of my Mid life crisis Tattoos I have my son on the other inner forearm they are Twins.
Lovely tattoo, I would love to have one, but at 58 feel it is a bit late to start having a mid-life crisis. But I am mummy to a set of twins, A son and a daughter.

Your never too old for a tattoo! xx
 
A much better 5.8 for me this morning, but it was a very low carb dinner last night as I forgot to put on the rice to go with the curry, I would normall only have a spoonful anyway, but my son also ended up with a low carb version. Going by the amount I am still sneezing I still have this virus, but it will go eventually.

Lost another 2.5lb so that takes me to 25lb lost which is good.

Like @freesia I have an exciting day of housework and grocery shopping while the men are at work.

@Kaylz - I really want a Betty Boop tattoo as she is my idol.

@merrymunky - your figures will come down my love, I know it is frustrating as I fell off the wagon during lockdown.

Have a great weekend everyone,
 
Good morning all, 5.8 and 91% in target this week so very pleased with that.
My youngest daughter has come from London for the weekend and today we will swim in the river, despite the lack of sunshine!
I wish you all a good weekend.
 
5.2 is the nominated optimum waking reading and is referred to as a "House Special" or "HS". It is really just a bit of fun and was suggested by a forum member in the early days of this thread and has just become a bit of a tradition. The idea was that 5.2 was a nice mid point reading which suggested that you probably hadn't been too high or too low overnight..... Of course all these diet controlled Type 2s claim House Specials when they have no concern about going too low overnight and we humour them and let them have their "glory" 😉 😎but they are really only competing in one dimension whereas we insulin users have to contend with 2 dimensional variation so getting a House Special is therefore so much more difficult for us. o_O
@rebrascora
I think it’s down to Type 1 glucose meters not having a 5.2 reading. Everything but. 5.0 5.1 5.3 etc. Lol
Your explanation is probably more accurate though!

When I say mid life I mean Mid life and abit so at 56yrs it has less time to fade i'm now thinking about another already. My two are 23 this year I can't believe how quick time goes once you start a family but I still want to pick them up for a hug but get a backache if I try :D.
 
@HenryBennett
Imparnumerophobia (from Latin impar, "odd", and numerus, "number") is the fear of odd numbers. ... Few sufferers may not unbear odd numbers divisible by a certain number, like by 3 or 5.
I definitely can see a Monty Python sketch or a Black Adder one. Baldrick would have a cunning plan to get those House Specials.
