Group 7-day waking average?

Morning folks. 5.7 here.

This week I’m hoping my DSN sends me the links to the Omnipod 5 training modules. I’ve been waiting 10 days now and can see what’s going to happen - a mad rush at the last minute! Not ideal.

Lots to do today, must dash!
 
Morning everyone, woke to a 4.9 today after a 8.9 at bedtime last night. No frost today just for a change, and, it’s +1c outside.

Have a good day everyone and stay safe and warm.
 
went to bed on 7.5 woke up to 4.6 Didt have as many carbs as normal last night will try lower carbs again tonight see how it goes
Morning all take care of yourselves and have a good day

Morning All - 7.7 on waking today. Means I'm definitely doing something right with my insulin as found myself having two cheeky mini mince pies at bedtime so bolused for them and seems to have worked. Well what a difference a day makes - our beautiful thick fluffy snow that we've had for a week has well and truly melted overnight - it's horrible out there - mucky, slushy and wet and I've just remembered muddy paw prints which we haven't had for the last week. I've got Walking Netball today at lunchtime, which I help to coach - my brain has forgotten any useful and fun drills so I'll have to put my thinking cap on and hope that the other coach is feeling a bit inspired today or it could be a very long 1½ hours. I have a HUGE pile of ironing which I keep putting off doing. I need to find a good film (not with subtitles) and really set to it ... Have a good day everyone x
 
Morning all. 3.7 ooops!! I'd managed to stave off other lows with JBs but obviously the last time didn't work and i slept. Currently 5.8 so holding steady now, for how long who knows.

Congrats on the HS @Grannylorraine.

@eggyg if there's pie left, send some down to us. It did look lovely.
 
Good morning I’m joining @eggyg on the unicorn step today

Congrats on the “Doubble HS” @Grannylorraine :star: :star:
I did wonder if I was going to wake on a HS myself today as had one when I glanced at my phone just before sleeping last night (popped a couple of JB’s)

yesterday I watched Playing Nice on ITVX I thought it was a Jaw Dropper good shout on that drama @zippyjojo

Chilling at home this morning then eye clinic later

Happy Monday Everyone 😎
 
Congrats on the double-HS @Grannylorraine - going for the hattrick??

Well done on your FAB HbA1c @freesia - you should feel really pleased.

Lovely to see you posting again @gll sorry to hear about the stress time you are having. That’ll be playing havoc with your BGs more than likely.

Poorly pooch overnight so i slept downstairs for a lot of it. Cream crackered now, and couldn’t get him walked before coming on here, so my day is all out of kilter already!

A 5.5 for me to start the week through. Grateful for that.
 
Good morning everyone

BG 5.5

Spent yesterday re-recording the music for a new song. I had actually recorded it before in mono and the words had changed so nothing fitted. This morning I added a 2 part harmony to it and it sounds good.

Rest of today, working on the song

Have a great day today whatever you are doing

Have you got Apple+? I don’t know if you’ll have enough ironing but Lessons in Chemisty is 8 episodes! Really enjoyed it. As you know I loved the book.

We’re watching too but just when it’s on. I hate ITVX, it buffers and the picture isn’t HD. Last night’s episode was making me very anxious, frustrated and angry! I’ve read some of JP Delaney’s other books, but not this one. They’re really good and all really different.
 
4.8 today for me.

Congratulations @Grannylorraine on your HS! Same again tomorrow?😉

Whilst my wife is off for a nail appointment I am going to help my father with his tax return. Can’t believe he has left it so late, before now he was always so organised and on top of things but this is another sign of old age changes for him. He is so different now to how he used to be and everything is either too much trouble for him or something he just can’t cope with now.

Looks like I will need to speak to my GP as well to get my repeat prescription updated as there is no sign on my record online yet despite the DSN having sent the letter electronically on Jan 3rd.

Take care everyone!

Urgh! Diabetesadmin can be such a faff. Double so when it comes to prescriptions most of the time!

I was going to send you the link, but you need an Omnipod ID to access the training. Why not prompt your DSN, it might have slipped her mind. Looking around the forum it seems some get on with the Omnipod 5 and Libre 2+ HCL. I don't, I ditched it 3 days ago and switched to manual. TIR is now better and waking BG is back in the 5s. There are a number of things I didn't like about it, but speak as you find and you may love it. I will be interested to follow your progress.
 
Morning all - hubby opened the curtains and said "what a pale grey day". Forecast is 10 degrees at midday.

5.4 - It may not be a HS, but see me doing a happy dance at being back in the 5s! I ditched the HCL 3 days ago now and switched to manual. TIR 98% for today. A slight hypo at 2am but that was my own fault for a correction done at bedtime. Flat line ever since then. Yesterday's TIR was 81% which was on a par with anything achieved on HCL. I'll post my comments on the failings of the HCL elsewhere in the forum.

Not much on today... leftover roast chicken and veg for dinner - freshly made roast potatoes. Our social life seems to have reduced to almost nothing with some friends on holiday, some with this nasty virus, which we do not want to get! Shall be looking out for "playing nice". Unfortunately we don't have Apple + so the other recommendation isn't available to us but sounds really interesting.

Double congrats to @Grannylorraine on HS 2 days in a row!

Hope your doggy is better soon @everydayupsanddowns . Also hope you can get your scripts sorted @Eternal422

Have a lovely Monday all
