Group 7-day waking average?

And it’s a 5.6 for me this fine sunny morning after a 6.7 on retiring last night……
 
Another 5.8er here this morning. 🙂

5.2 for me this morning. Grey and drizzling this morning, hope it brightens up.

Have a good day everyone 🙂
 
Good morning everyone

@zippyjojo my sincere condolences.

BG 4.9
BP 117/76
Pulse 61

All good

Walked for 246 minutes yesterday. I certainly felt it by the end of the day. All good stuff.

Had a rare but very appreciated excellent day with my wife. She came out of the house and we went to the sea front and we shared fish and chips before doing some food shopping. A really nice time. In fact, the whole day was good.

Got my second cholesterol test results back. Much better results too, not perfect, but good enough. My experimental strategy seemed to have worked but I will really know when the Christmas results are in (after all it might just be natural variation). Happy about the new result and it will help with my practice nurse appointment tomorrow ...I wouldn't take statins anyway and I am convinced that was their next attack plan

Today. Hmm. Get some graphs ready for tomorrows appointment. They always help.

The new Macro nutrient analysis stuff is proving really useful. The App now analyses vitamins:A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, B12 and minerals: Calcium, Copper, Chromium, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Phosphorus, Potassium, Selenium, Sodium, Zinc, Iodine. And it can recommend the correct number of supplement tablets to take to get everything into the correct range whilst adjusting for the effect of the PPI med. Perhaps I need to introduce some AI into the App to test out a 'world domination' strategy !!!!! 😱

Today, not much planned. Less exercise that's for sure.

Have a great day today whatever you are doing
Glad you had a good day with your wife and enjoyed the walk and sounds lovely walking on sea front and sharing fish & chips 🙂
 
Morning folks. 🙂 A cute little 6.0 for me - bang on target.

I'm so sorry to hear about your brother @zippyjojo - (((hugs))) to you and your family.
A massive congrats on the A1c.

It's a bit grey out there, but very muggy.

Good luck @TinaD - well, good luck to your doctor, it sounds like they're going to get a roasting! o_O😉
 
Morning wasn't really up to posting wasn't really up to posting yesterday. It was 7.9 I had my breath stop to a and e on to way to my appointment following out of hours doctors advice. I've got a little cornened about that they said as they said my blood was a bit more acidic then it should be not dka though(that was the original corncen as they were some ketones(probably starvation ketones and I've been sick as well ) I started wondering if that's been the problem the whole or at least not helping) they just wanted to check my breathing (it said I was actually breathing a little bit slower then he would expect for that and let me go) I'm going to try and speak to a doctor today anyway as I do get these breathing issues moments but seem to be getting worse now from yesterday afternoon.
Does that mean you didn't have your colonoscopy?
I hope you soon feel better.
 
Morning folks! 4.6 for me but 2 lots of JBs required overnight and that was with a decrease in evening Levemir last night. Looks like I may need another decrease tonight. Didn't get through my list of chores for yesterday and feeling very stiff and sore this morning after the ones I did do..... mostly the hoof trimming. It's a full body work out. Back, knees and shoulders are all complaining. Must walk along to the docs today to pick up medication as that was one of the things I didn't get done and it will help loosen things up. Going to leave shopping till Friday.
Definitely feeling autumnal here too, but not complaining.
Played a blinder with Wordle today. After getting nothing with my first try, I got a green and gold with my second and cracked it on my third attempt.

@eggyg Congrats on your Unicorn. We need to know what lunch was, so we can truly appreciate it though?? Sorry to read your shoulders are both giving you gip, especially from something as mundane as closing the car door. You will need to insist that Mr Eggy does the gentlemanly thing and hands you into the car and then closes the door for you once you are comfortably settled. If you can get him a peaked cap to wear in the process and doff it with a little bow as he closes the door, then all the better. :D 😉

@harbottle and @Wannie Congrats to you both on your House Specials this morning.

@ColinUK Sending you (((HUGS))) to help support you through the emotionally trying day ahead.

@MikeyBikey Hope the phantom pain eased and you were able to get a bit more sleep. (((HUGS))) to you too.

@rayray119 That sounds a bit scary. Hope they are able to get to the bottom of it.

@gll So pleased you are feeling a bit better and great to see a reasonably normal waking reading at last! I can feel a House Special is just around the corner for you 😉. I have my finger twitching to hit the gold star emoticon for you.

@TinaD Good luck in your battle with the GP. Don't envy you that but I am sure you will present a good case.

I had two doorstep slices of homemade bread ( I usually only have one) filled with chicken and stuffing. Half a packet of Pom Bears, a big slice of courgette cake cut in half and filled with lashings of cream cheese frosting. About two hours later we stopped and I had a 25grm bar of Aldi’s salted caramel dark chocolate. Had our tea at 6.30, lamb kofta curry, Basmati rice and a homemade chapati. I had to have a chocolate digestive at bedtime as was under 7! 🙂
 
I was 8 something this morning.

Got the dietician this morning, which is a shame as I haven’t really lost weight since the last appointment. I was hoping to and did make a good start, but then the last month with being ill, not leaving the house much, lots of needing to have a lie down, I’ve basically been not following the diet or exercise plan.

Hoping she can help with my questions on whether it’s okay to cut down carbs if struggling with lack of energy and getting on track with diet when not feeling great. Seeing her might help with motivation anyway.

Also need to sort out some prescriptions and some bloods.

Wow! I am metaphorically on my knees offering humble adulation to you and your BG balancing skills and your truly miraculous unicorn! Just Wow!
 
Morning all and it was a 4.3 for me

Off down to the studio this aft/evening for some more programming work on the keyboard. Sometimes the stuff you do at home doesn't sound quite as you want when you listen on the big speakers at an unacceptable for home volume.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning all, another sunny, breezy day.

7.6 first thing. No idea why, went up then down again during the night, but not much.

@zippyjojo Please accept my condolences on the death of your brother. How terrible for his children and his wife of course.

@Wannie and Harbottle, congrats on your HSs.

HUGS to everyone, hope your day isn't too stressful.
 
@Elenka_HM sorry, wasn't implying that you were not offended. I just meant that it was as much a slur on your country and background as on you. Seemed to imply Spain was a 3rd world country, which we all know it is not. Ignorant woman. I know, I know, we all think of a smart answer after the event LOL!
 
Morning All. Been offline a while photos attached ! A 6.2 this morning. Have a great day. So much news to catch up on.

I couldn’t eat like that everyday mind, but I’m so sick of going hypo as I get home from a tough/hot walk and feeling ill. But to be honest it made it harder work walking on a full stomach. Maybe little and often next time. Hopefully when it starts cooling down things will change. It’s a pain in the proverbial!
 
Oh my days ..... thats amazing 🙂 the things us type2's dream about lol :rofl: .... well, me anyways.
Whats your bread and chapati recipes?
I use a Panasonic bread maker so just a standard white loaf. I don’t eat much grain because of gastric problems. TMI?
The chapatis are half plain flour half whole meal 140grms of each. 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 180mls of hot water. Mix together, divide into 10 balls. Roll out into a circle ( I never mange that, triangles, rhomboids anything but a circle) cook in hot dry frying pan till brown and hopefully bubbly. I freeze the remaining balls and take out what I need an hour of so before needing them. So simple. I actually put cumin seeds in the one’s I made last night.
