Group 7-day waking average?

Morning

Woke on 7.8 dropping to 5.4 an hour later

Very cold as was last night (lay shivering for an hour in bed)
xx
 
Hi there folks. 6.6 here.:D

Another cold, crispy start. 😎 I’ve ordered some hand warmers for my poor fingers. As soon as we pile out the back door in the morning they start to freeze! A full poo bag keeps them warm for a bit, hahaha...o_O
 
Even the moggie is staying put!!:D

Haven’t you got a hot water bottle @Kaylz ? I need one for my feet at the mo - they’re like ice blocks! Roll on the summer, LOL.😛

I do but I don't use them, even though it was well wrapped a few years ago I hugged it tight all night and burnt the inside of my upper arm so I don't like to use them anymore, my feet are fine it's my top half that's permanently cold, being in the north facing bedroom doesn't help either and the windows still let a draught in for some reason xx
 
4.1 this morning. Basal rate better than yesterday but perhaps a bit more tweaking and a JB as arrow gently down.

Looking very wintery and warnings of snow.
One slice of Christmas cake left. I must write down the carbs I have worked out and stuff it in the Cooking for Christmas Book with the cake recipe and where all the other recipes and party recipes go.

Have a good day.
 
8.1 today. Started a food diary New Year’s Day which is keeping me on the straight and narrow though figures as yet aren’t showing that. Treadmill is now back in its proper place and will get used as it’s been gathering dust the past couple of months.
Our local council have decided to close all schools so grandchildren yet again won’t be attending. What a dilemma!!
Have a good day one and all xx

I have kept a food diary all last year @SueEK found it very helpful not just for recording carbs etc. but also to see what to eat if you get stuck! Part of routine now...
Just managed a 5 mile run, needed two jackets though ! x
 
5.3 today I don't like Sundays:(

Can/t buy a treadmill for love or money, they are in short supply this time of year.

Still not getting notifcations of responses and I was wondering if perhaps the recent problems with the database had resulted in the check box being deactivated so I tried to find out but my profile page will not load. Can someone please 'talk' me through how to check, thank you.

Really!! Well I have been admiring mine in the corner for a couple of months now and now that the tree is down and my figures are on the up it’s time for us to play together again lol.
 
Meant to mention that I decided to test after my peanuts as I’ve been convinced that they are what have been making my figures rise. 6.2 before 90g salted peanuts, 2 hours later exactly the same figure so can’t blame it on them which is good as I lurve nuts.
 
Snap @SueEK , 8.1 for me as well.

Currently watching Boris on Andrew Marr and wondering whether i definitely am in school from tomorrow or not. At the moment we are open, training day tomorrow and children back on Tuesday but there are so many differing opinions now. Who knows anymore. I shall be working on the assumption i am back at work until i hear otherwise.

Don't mean to burst your bubble but remember the fat content in nuts can delay any rise, Type 1's have to be quite cautious with fat content for this reason as inject too early and you risk the insulin hitting the system before the carbs do, we often have to split a dose and do some upfront and some after as it peaks after a dose is out of the system if done all in one go xx
