Group 7-day waking average?

Completely missed this yesterday😱

I'm currently injecting 20 units of lantus which on the whole is keeping my bg fine during the night and throughout the day. Yesterday and today's early morning bg of 3.7 is probably due to the exercise I'm doing early evening, I reduce my QA insulin by a third on night's when I'm physically active but figure I should eat some toast later before bed to allow for the delayed effect.

Today woke to 6.1 after two jb's for a 3.7 at 4am

I'd get a 1-unit lantus pen and reduce by one unit in your situation toby 🙂

That would make sense northerner it just that I'm not as active every night, come the weekend the most I'll do is walk the dog after tea so it would mean adding that 1 unit back, there again from a weight prospective knocking 1 unit off is better that eating toast before bed -oh dear:(

I have found that if I am exercising regularly, even with a couple of rest days in between, I do not need to increase my lantus for the rest days because the effects of exercise persist, so it might be worth reducing by a unit and then just seeing what happens over the weekend. 🙂

Good morning, 11.3 for me :( I was 3.8 before bed with active insulin on board, had some JBs.....so either too many or (as i suspect) hypoed during the night and bounced (should have set my alarm)

I survived! Lovely and calm down here for my morning run - a bit on the chilly side though!
