Have a great time, Alan. I'm not at all jealous.🙄Morning all. 4.7 for me. I'm Off to Spain tomorrow, don't miss me too much, I'll be playing golf, eating & drinking (sort of sensible) will be back Tuesday, Have a good Weekend all.
Gill, (not trying to get too personal, but this is something I tended to do before I gave myself a stern talking to) Do you eat things like biscuits then think perhaps you shouldnt have, and not Bolus for them, because you didn't mean to eat them and are hoping they won't count? I had to discipline myself to acknowledge and Bolus for Everything I ate, naughty or not, and my levels improved as a result. I did have to decide that I would give myself an additional Bolus, based on the correct carb count for the extras, without worrying about current BG level or insulin on board.- ate a sandwich 2x slices of bread 35g/3.5 CP 3u insulin but then ruined everything by eating 2x chocolate biscuits with no insulin
18:51pm teatime 6.7

I'm claiming a new House Special! We have a quorum of three in one day!Shift up Kookycat and northerner. More space needed on the 5.3 step.
I thought that may be the case. I've made a point of drinking more (water, not vodka...) this morning and have plummeted down to a round 4.0. Strangely feeling much better now too, although a tiny bit shaky!!A 6.4 for me this morning 🙂
Slow Runner, could be dehydration raises levels seeing as they encourage us to drink more water when the levels spike.
