Group 7-day waking average?

Morning. I go from the sublime to the ridiculous, yesterday I didn’t surface until 8.30 today it’s 6 am. RLS again. Anyhoo, enough of my rambling. 5.7. That’ll do for today, I’ll try my very hardest not to eat the delicious gooey chocolate brownie I made yesterday. Luckily, unlike Father Ted, I’m not a Catholic, and if I do succumb to the temptation I don’t need to go to confession, I’ll just tell you lot! 🙂
Have a good day and stay safe and stay home, unless you’re going to work because you can’t work from home, or on an essential journey to B &Q, Halfords, Timpsons, Home Bargains, B & M, estate agents, agricultural supplier ( just in case you are in desperate need of a tractor), optician, podiatrist, dentist, audiologist, Costa coffee, Greggs, garage for an MOT, cycle shop, Indian/ Chinese/ Thai/Greek/ Turkish/ takeaway, KFC, Burger King, MacDonalds or the chippy or walking locally! 😉
 
4.1 Today I'm off work waiting for my Treadmill delivery, can't wait to set it up then watch it collect dust in the garage :D
 
Another 5.4 for me. Thankfully I seem to have stabilised after all the shortbread & chocolate at Christmas/New Year.
 
Morning all,
Snap @eggyg with a 5.7!
Belated happy birthday to @Bexlee ...!
They are supposed to be starting vaccination today at our local council buildings, we shall see...

Blessings Snowwy
 
@KARNAK in the words of the late great Dick Emery ’oh you are awful but I like you’.
7.1 today, lowest so far this year. Can’t stop, off to do battle at Sainsbury’s . Have a good one x
 
Morning all. 4.9 this morning. In work today so will check back in later and see how everyone is.
Have a good day folks
 
Morning

Text MIL with the hoover details last night, she's dropping it off at Bruce's as todays a stressful enough one as it is for me without more to be seeing to :(

6.6 after 4 oat nobblies, going through them like god knows what but any less basal and my levels rise in the afternoon and won't come down :(
xx
 
3.5 for me this morning and that was after a Hypo Hero an hour earlier. Think I over egged my evening Levemir last night at 5 units but I hadn't been for a walk for a few days. Need to head along to the surgery to pick up my repeat prescription... Libre sensors and Fiasp. Very much doubt they will be Libre 2 as I haven't done anything about that yet and not sure I am that bothered anyway, but it will happen when it happens.

@Robin Congratulations on the HS, especially when it happened as a result of careful consideration and good judgement.... please don't now tell us you flipped a coin. 😉
 
Morning all. :D 7.9 here...who knows what’s going on at the mo! It’s the mid-winter BG roller coaster...hop on, it’s lots of fun.😉😛

A belated Happy Birthday @Bexlee...I hope there was lots of cake.:D

If you look at this thread, post #87, I’ve put a summary of what Abbot told us in yesterday's webinar about Libre 2 availability
https://forum.diabetes.org.uk/boards/threads/libres.90622/page-5. (I had a medication review with my GP yesterday, but didn’t ask about it, because I checked the Oxfordshire Formulary and it’s not on there yet)
Careful consideration and good judgement? I didn’t exactly flip a coin, but call it 'gut feeling'
 
Good morning all, 16.0 this morning.

Yesterday was a good day. Definitely feeling better after my chat with the GP nurse last night. She is going to pass me on to the Diabetic Nurse, who will get in touch. She has left a load of leaflets for me at the clinic to pick up to. Also, got my copy of "the first year: Type 2 Diabetes" and started reading it.... i can see why people rave about it, brilliant so far.

Another positive, last night before my evening meal i recorded my lowest reading so far 13.9... yay :D

Have a great day 🙂
 
5.7 for me before breakfast.
3.7 at 05:00 so 8g carbs and 4.8 before getting out of bed.
Clinic (telephone) yesterday. As usual told doing fine, as usual I think too many BS > 10.0.
Getting Novopen 5's, using 3's for about 12 years. But don't think they do 1/2 units, but can get round that.
And told might get The Jab sooner than expected due to age, T1 & BP. So just waiting for the call if I can manage to answer mobile.
 
Belated birthday wishes to you @Bexlee and I believe it's @adrian1der whose the birthday boy today.
Congrats also to @Robin for another HS. :D
4.7 for me this am. 🙂

Have you done the occasional finger prick after your exercise? That’s when I get my lowest readings.
 
@adrian1der hear you are a Birthday boy, many happy returns and hope you have a lovely day x
