Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all I’m up here on 11.0 after a stubborn hypo that I lost the plot with at 3am! That showed it 😱

Off to see my Mum and continue her house packing in expectation of a move nearer us in the near future. I wonder what photos we’ll find today of us all in black & white and home made frocks- not my Dad!

Have a good day out there 🙂

Morning all and 4.9 for me.

The starlings are having a good year. The ravenous horde descended noisily at some ungodly hour this morning and have cleared all the feeders.

Have a good day everyone.

I have had to buy seed and fat balls in bulk since making a 4 feeder post that goes so high over the summer house that our cats don't have a chance for early lunch. Starlings are going mad but the smaller birds like the seeds once the starlings scoff the fat balls, I love watching them through my scope.
 
Good morning everyone and happy weekend to you all have a great one 🙂
7:47am - 4.2 for me this morning - 18u tresiba taken - I'm thinking it's still a bit low waking up in the 4s
00:00am - 6.3 - bedtime - BGL below 8mmol so had 1 bag of mini cheddars 13g of carbs and 1 bag of mini choc chip cookies 13g of carbs so 26g of carbs altogether - no humalog for the 20g booster and none either for just 6g of carbs.
For anyone who wants to I would be delighted to have your thoughts on my levels 🙂

Oh I’m glad someone’s in touch with him, it’s always a worry if someone suddenly disappears. I wondered where he’d gone. Please give him my regards if you’re in touch.

Will do hun xx
 
Morning all. A surprising 10.6 for me! I went to bed on a 7 and the graph shows i steadily rose and stayed in the high 10s low 11s all night. Maybe a delay from the fat and protein in the low carb pizza last night.
@merrymunky your levels seem to be going in the right direction
@Kaylz, poor Bubbles taking his toy away lol. Imagine the mess as it broke down though.
@mum2westiesGill, you've made some good decisions lately. Have the confidence in your ability to make changes.
Have a good day everyone.

Thankfully it only ended up in 3 bits! Or his dad would've been cleaning it up when he got here! He has plenty of his own "proper" toys but likes hair bobbles (has 4 in the lobby) and a small strip of flooring that was left behind by the bathroom lads!

At least he's not like my cat we had, she used to steal a small Eeyore teddy from my room and carry it about in her mouth, when she finally stopped doing it we'd got the dog and she started taking it! xx
 
Well, I went out for a 95 minute walk on the beach. At 45 minutes it started to rain. Thank goodness I like rain.! 🙂

And it is now getting even darker out there.
 
2.7 for me this morning on the Libre but finger prick said 4.1, so not as bad as it appeared although by the time I got the BG meter warmed up and some blood out of my finger I think it might have increased slightly and I do feel a bit "hypo headed" It's the effect of motivating myself to do a bit of exercise yesterday. Slight basal reduction tonight I think.

@Kaylz Good to hear Snowwy is well. It is concerning when people suddenly vanish..... talking of which @Martin.A has not reported in for a good few days now. Hope you are OK Martin.
 
@rebrascora I noticed about Martin too but if you click his name he was last seen a moment ago so just not posting in here at the moment xx
 
After a broken night with regular alarms from my pump asking for calibrations (BG readings) I woke at 7.8.
It was sensor changeover today, so perhaps that was the reason. Repeated tests one handed were interesting, so shall get OH to do ones during the day so it gives my splinted hand a rest.

We found packing my father’s stuff took hours with all the family items we unearthed and the photos we came across. It sounds like you are not in a rush @Flower so enjoy the memories.

Well done @merrymunky on your progress, and managing your birthday celebrations.

@Maca44 I am another who has had no noticeable side effects from statins apart from a good reduction in cholesterol levels.

Today is the start of trying a lactose free diet. Oatly is not as bad as I thought it would be in tea.
I shall miss butter and cheese.

Another day of Wimbledon watching so need to get out for a walk before that starts.
Enjoy whatever you do.

Thanks for your concern @Kaylz and @rebrascora but I'm fine, just reached that stage that I've seen with many others where I'm totally fed up with the whole bloody diabetes thing and the way it controls my life. I'm sure it'll pass but for the time being I've decided to step back from posting for a while.

Oh gosh Martin! You seem to have such good control and be so cool 😎with your diabetes management, I am surprised and so sorry to hear that you are struggling mentally with it. Be kind to yourself and don't lose sight of the fantastic progress you have made. Hopefully this is just a minor blip and you will feel more positive/focused again soon.
I have been thinking of you recently as I have been having a scoop or two of rum and raisin ice cream at my sister's every once in a while when I have been invited for Sunday dinner. I think it is Carte D'Or and the raisins have been soaked in real rum. It is delicious. Not sure if you have tried it, but maybe you should! 😉

A quieter day today, an Amazon delivery is about the most exciting thing to be happening, apart from the footie of course.

Have a great day and “ Come on England!” 🙂

Amazon delivery not ear plugs by any chance is it so Mr Eggy's snoring doesn't wake you :D

6.4 for me this morning, yeah!🙂
Very warm & clammy today. Later on will fix wallplanters and brackets for hanging baskets. The grass needs cutting too, I seem to be cultivating pretty buttercups!🙂
Have a nice weekend friends doing what you most enjoy. Good luck England.
Take care

G'day all. I really meant to measure today but forgot. Will start tomorrow... famous last words. Got my review Tuesday as well. :(

WL I'm cultivating what I thought was groundsel but it's not, it's taking over whatever it is... 🙂

Going off topic here but Senecio Vulgaris, often known by the common names Groundsel ~ and old-man-in-the-spring, is a flowering plant in the daisy family Asteraceae. It is an annual herb, native to Europe.

Give it a good pruning if you don't want to dig it up Birdy. I keep weeds if they're pretty & not taking over my plants ~ if they do then out they come!

Didn't check in yesterday as I had a very busy day. A 4.8 at 07:06 this morning following on from a 5.3 at 06:57 yesterday.

We had a change of plan on the cooking last night. The weather was good and the forecast for the weekend was bad, so the planned Portuguese Devil Curry became Shawarma Chicken Kebabs, Turmeric Spiced Chicken Kebabs and Glazed Pork Skewers (after a trip to the farm shop for some belly pork) all cooked on the BBQ and accompanied by a large jug of Pimm's and Lemonade and a nice salad. A perfect end to a busy week.

Ha ha! Been there tried that. No, nothing more exciting than a bin for under my sink cupboard. It’s just arrived and I’m happy now to get rid of my huge bin which isn’t conducive to the hot weather!
