Group 7-day waking average?

Well, having had a lovely BG day yesterday almost exclusively in the 4s, 5s and 6s I had 10g carbs with a coffee last night to bring me up from 4.9 to drive back from visiting my friend.... we hadn't seen each other for 497 days!!.... and levels went up to 8 and promptly stuck there despite 2 units of insulin when I got home (I did have some blue cheese at bedtime as well as I hadn't had any evening meal) but levels were rising hence the extra unit, so whilst I prevented it hitting double figures it stayed high and I have a lovely flat line in the 8s all night and awoke on 8.8. It was bliss having such lovely stable readings yesterday. Getting your basal dose just right makes all the difference in the world! Not sure if it is purely phycological but I am sure I feel physically better too. Wish I had more days like that but my basal needs are constantly changing so it won't last for long!

Anyway, I have a personal best on my Libre this morning for the past 7 days..... 95% TIR with 2% above and 3% below.... I know I need to work on the "below" figure but Libre exaggerates a bit at low levels so it is probably realistically nearer 1.5% Anyway, that result makes me happy this morning even if my waking reading doesn't!

@Gwynn I liked your post because I wanted to show support and of course your readings was good (as always) but so very sad that you had a difficult day yesterday. Fingers crossed she will be better today.

@HenryBennett I like your style using alcohol to get an "House Special". Nice work!
@Hazel I really don't know how you do it but great to see you so on form with the "Hazel Specials" Well done!

@eggyg Hope they managed to get the sheep in and dried off before the shearers arrive. Not the best drying weather today! Hope you have a lovely day with the "locusts"!

They got half the sheep done today, hopefully the rest tomorrow. But it’s pouring down at the moment.
Thought you and @Robin might like to see the latest addition to the farmers’ menagerie.
Introducing Apache the gypsy cob. He’s only on loan at the moment to see how 8year old Poppy does with him. He’s only four so a bit green, as my daughter describes him. But she’s a fully qualified BHS riding instructor and experienced horse owner so he’s in good hands. They hadn’t told Poppy so when he arrived last night she was overwhelmed. That’s all I’ve had all day. It also means there’s no arguing over their other pony Chesney. One each now for the girls. Grandson not interested.

Despite a small portion of fish & chips for tea, which was absolutely delicious, I’ve woken to a 5.3.
Good luck to the England boys. The Italians are skilful and streetwise but I don’t think they’re as fit over 90 or 120 minutes as the England lads.
 
Good morning. Yesterday did turn out to be a better day thank goodness. Thank you for all your good wishes. Your support is very helpful to me.

5.5 this morning at 5:30am

Out on the beach in a few minutes time.

Football match? What football match? 🙂
 
Morning folks. :D 5.7 here.

Some more sunshine plz - I spent yesterday afternoon forking a scruffy patch in the garden in search of that pesky bindweed’s roots, ha-ha, so much fun!

How did the decorating go @Flower? All done?
 
06:12 BS 6.3 🙂

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

I MAY, being the operative word, even watch the football match today & see if it IS indeed “coming home”? 🙄

BUT, I will definitely be watching The Open golf later this week from, Thursday to Sunday, at Royal St. George at Sandwich where 10 years ago our local Portrush golfer Darren Clarke won it at the age of 42! 😛😎:D I’ll be turning into a golf telly zombie again as I’ve just taken up the Now TV’s £19.99 monthly pass for Sky Sports that’s reduced from the usual £33.99!:D Been watching The Open related programmes last night already!😛
 
5.5 for me today. 🙂

Morning

Yet another awful 10.3 but hardly surprising seen as I spent most of the night lying awake crying

Good morning All,
Do you all not have a later start on Sundays. ( It is supposed to be the day of rest! Lol)
A 6.1 for me this morning.
@Grannylorraine
How do you compensate for a 10k run? I’m still trying to sort out BG with a 4 or 5 km brisk walk. ( Or a long swim)
My body and mind object to Running any further than a few hundred yards I suppose it might get used to the idea as fitness returns after years of neglect

Stay well everyone

@Gwynn
It’s where 22 overpaid adults run round on a piece of grass, kicking hell out of a spherical plastic thing.
Or was that remark concerning the wrong home nation playing?

Got my Lawn perfect now along with the rest of the garden can't believe you can buy cut lawn scented spray for that plastic lawn, really, I'm old school even cutting the lawn is therapy for me and the smell, well you can't buy that in a can.

That is just as bad as in the 60’s, Water came from a tap and if anyone had suggested that you bottled it, to sell at prices compared to petroleum, they would have been taken away by the men in white suits.
 
Good morning everyone 🙂
07:09am - 6.2 for me this morning - bgl in target range but unusual because I'm often in the 4s on waking - 16u of tresiba taken
00:06 - 7.6 - bedtime - bgl in target range - 15 minute hypo check - had 26g of carbs which was 2 bags of mini cheddars - was going to have 1 bag but couldn't resist having just 1 more - no bolus.
23:44pm - 3.9 - bedtime - had 3 jelly babies plus decided to have 1 more for good luck - no idea why hypo
