Group 7-day waking average?

Morning 6.3 today.

Had 11.3 (increase of 4 from pre-meal) after lunch yesterday despite having also spent approx 50 minutes post- lunch walking at a nice pace. I had eaten 31.5g of carbs for lunch... going to try today with similar lunch but dropping an oatcake to drop 10 carbs and see if my body can handle that better.

As I expected, youngest only joined me for a small part of my walking but better than them doing none. I did over 16000 steps according to my health app (and Pikmin) so pretty happy with that.
 
Morning all, 4.7 here. Not often I'm in the 4s. Well, I often am in the middle of the night, but I've normally risen by the time I wake up, Dawn has obviously packed her bag and gone away for the weekend. She’ll no doubt be back soon.
 
Morning all. After a unicorn day yesterday, early hours of this morning i went up to 12 so i had a 1u correction. It should have been more but sometimes overnight it can affect me more, hence the 1u. However, last night the 1u worked quicker and i dropped quickly. JBs couldn't stop it and i woke to a 3.1. I just hope now its not going to be a see saw day. Fingers crossed.

When levels are up i'm off to cook bacon and egg. Have a good day everyone.

Think I had Dawn and Diabetes Fairy! ☹️

12.9 today! ☹️ And I had started having a good run!

Drum roll please……5.2!!! Oh, and a very good morning to you all. I was so excited I forgot my manners.

I’ve had a lie in today, like @rebrascora I was tossing and turning from 3.20am for what seemed like hours. Thinking about the most ridiculous things and a CBEEBIES theme tune kept running through my head! I obviously dropped off eventually and was surprised to see it was after 8 o’clock. First reading was 3.8 arrow going down, gave it a minute and I got a HS and no red line on the graph. I’m celebrating with a full English. 😉

After a full on day yesterday, including two luke warm “glasses” of wine with my feta and spinach pie at the Continental Market, total of six miles walked, an LP bought, and two second hand books for me, we’re staying at home. Lovely morning so far, bed already stripped and wash on and I have the ironing to tackle. :( Everyday can’t be exciting, can it?

Have a super, sunny Sunday all. 😎

And playing with my new eBay find should help my leg heal nicely.
Made a very cheeky offer on it which was accepted so nabbed it at a 60% discount to RRP which I’d have never paid.
Unboxed it all yesterday and it’s a mightily impressive piece of kit. Now I’ve just got to get into the habit of using it ever other day….

Oh and the creative writing session yesterday was intense. I’m looking forward to the next one.

An acceptable 5.6 for me this fine sunny morning here in Bedfordshire after a 9.6 on retiring last night.
 
Morning all and 4.8 for me.

Went out in the mini to pick a few things up. Immobiliser went crazy when I tried to start up again. Nevermind a quick disconnect and reconnect of the battery and all good.

Washing's out, must be time for a brew.

Have a good day everyone.

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

Well, well, well! 😱 In the last 24 hours I watched 51 episodes & only fell asleep from sheer exhaustion about a quarter of the way through episode 52!😱

I did say I grew up on a diet of this stuff: renting the latest HK tv dramas of this type available from Chinese food stores that slowly filter through to Chinatowns globally; we watched together as a family with 9 of us in the living room! 😛😎:D I was about 10 with my younger siblings were 8 & 6 when we watched the first one so, it was mostly this historical kung fantasy genre that we watched as it’s mostly PG & the few other more contemporary stuff that are much more violent WE, the children, didn’t get to see: not until much later, anyway; there always seems to be two themes that run through EVERY contemporary drama of a) the triads & b) people in prison for getting involved, rightly, wrongly or innocently, with the triads!🙄o_O:D

Well, the hype on this one was right & “OH MY!” those kissing scenes set the screen on fire! 😱 I was surprised the censors passed them & I think it was BECAUSE it’s fantasy!😛😎:D😉:rofl:

I watched episode after episode all day yesterday & hardly needed the subtitles at all. Which was just as well as they were very patchy with chunks missing here & there: it’s only been 2/3 years on a smaller/lesser known production & the one that started it all off by making onto Netflix first, “Empresses in The Palace” 2010, took about 5 years for all of the subtitles to come through by the time I saw it on Netflix in 2015! 😱 Now, Chinese dramas are available on all platforms & very fast, some are even on kive with paid subscriptions, & there are SO many!🙂

I know the “golden rules” of this type of thing & as long as you suspend disbelief I rather enjoyed it! 😛

I’ll watch the last few episodes today & see if the ending is happy or tragic? :confused:
 
Morning all on this grey day. It was summer yesterday and very hot, where has summer gone today?

Went to bed on 4.7 and woke on 5.1 with a straight line all night.... 2 nights in a row I rose into the 10s, 2 nights in a row I dropped into hypo level, now a perfect night, good thing I didn't adjust basals. We shall see what tonight brings.

@Lanny 52 episodes??? Good grief, how long is an episode?

@eggyg and @MeeTooTeeTwo congratulations on your HSs.

@ColinUK what on earth does that roller thing DO?
 
About 38 to 40 minutes without the opening & closing titles with songs! I fast forwarded some, obviously, on the first round to get my ear in & I’ll watch more each round & use the Translate app for the difficult stuff & the missing chunks of subtitles! But, knowing this genre so well I can guess most of that!
 
Well, I am going to have 2 bites at the cherry today. I hate feeling tired and I hate starting the day on a bad number so after 2 cups of coffee when I woke up earlier, I jabbed my morning Levemir an hour early (increased by another 2 units) plus another 1 correction unit of Fiasp as levels were 8s and on their way up AGAIN 😡 and clambered back into bed and had another 2.5 hours more restful sleep and woke up to a much better 5.6..... So that is my final offer for the day.

Many congratulations to @MeeTooTeeTwo on yet another HS and especially @eggyg as I know they are a more rare occurrence for you and therefore extra special!

Wordle was tricky this morning. Got 2 green letters and 1 gold with my first attempt and got rather excited as I was almost certain I was going to get it in 2 and then stumped when I was wrong and took a further 3 tries before I got it.... each time thinking "This MUST be it!"

@Lanny I used to love watching "Monkey" when I was young and that was the sort of fantasy Kung Fu you are describing. It was on one of the main TV channels so either BBC 1 or more likely BBC 2 or possibly ITV. It was certainly before channel 4. Did you ever watch that?
Not sure watching all that TV in one go is good for you. Are you still walking round the kitchen a couple of times a day for a bit of exercise in between binge watching. Important to exercise your body as well as your mind.
 
Yes, Monkey is a Classic but, that’s more comedic! This is pure fantasy: magic & flying; the Chinese version of “Lord of the Rings”!

I know, mum 😉, I’ll calm down, a bit, after round 1 & do things less obsessively!🙄:D😉:rofl:

Wow! A binge watch for me is watching two hour long episodes back to back! My backside and hips would have seized up!
