Group 7-day waking average?

4.8 this morning. Ground covered in snow .... cold.

I did a series of BG tests this morning to see if my liver picked up on the low-ish BG and stepped in. Hardly a scientific test and very few test points but does it reflect the liver kicking in?

5:30 4.8
6:00 4.5
6:30 4.7
7:00 4.8

At that point I decided that it was breakfast time and that I had enough holes in my fingers.
 
Morning all. :D 8.1 here.

It’s Dydd Santes Dwynwen today - Welsh St Valentine’s Day. We’ve had a cwtsh (a cuddle) this morning, but that’s as romantic as things get around here! 🙄:D Happy Saint Dwynwen to all you twpsen rhamantus (romantic fools) hahaha.😛
 
Morning all, 5.0 again. Drive is covered with snow again (only a sprinkling) . I spent an hour clearing 3 inches off it yesterday! Think I'll leave the supermarket run for a bit and see if it warms up and melts itself.
 
Morning

9.5 for me, still have a sore tummy and to add to my already feeling c**p got grandad due in an hour and then back this afternoon, also due my contraceptive injection 2 weeks tomorrow and tend to see higher levels when that's getting close, I was supposed to re order it myself which I was going to do on Saturday just gone but the chemist called to say the health centre had put the request down for it already :confused:

5.8 for me today. 🙂
Had a very disturbed sleep last night with loads of very weird dreamlets. o_O Enough material to keep Sigmund and Carl in work for years! 😱
Minus 3 just now, looks treacherous outside, so I don't think I'll be risking going there.

Morning,
5.6 for me
Congratulations @Anitram on the HS could it be a hat trick? More tense than Liverpool versus Man U last night.
Hope you can get through what sounds like a tricky day for you @Kaylz sending a hug.
snow no more in Somerset!
 
4.2 whoopidy doo
 
Morning all,
A 5.7 today earlier, been out for 5 miler since, icy patches but ok.

Blessings Snowwy
 
Shove up @Michael12421 I am on the 4.1 step with you. Very happy with that as, not only is the company good but I winged it with my insulin last night... 1.5 correction units to deal with a 12.7 at bedtime but also didn't get my exercise yesterday or the day before so I am having to feed in evening Levemir. Went for 2.5 units and had a nice steady descent down to my waking reading at 6am and more's the point, a great night's sleep. Woke up refreshed and ready to start the day and straight out into the cold to feed and muck out, so now enjoying my coffee with cream and breakfast yoghurt!

@Anitram Congrats on your second HS in a row. Will be keeping my fingers crossed for you for tomorrow. Would be great to see a hat trick so early in the year. That would be inspirational.

@Gwynn The BG meter is not accurate to that decimal place so they all could all in fact be the same reading although that too would be unusual as BG naturally varies. You still don't seem to have grasped that. If you had gone from 4.7 to 6.8 in the space of an hour before breakfast then that would tell you that Dawn Phenomenon had probably kicked in, but that tiny variation you saw tells you it definitely didn't.
 
Morning all. No snow but frosty again. A very pleasant 5.4 after a surprise 4.9 at bedtime and a slice of toast. Obviously done the trick. @Bloden may have Welsh Valentine’s Day but we’ve got Burns Night today, I know I live in England but we’re only 9 miles from the border and I’m half Scots. So haggis, tatties and neeps for tea tonight. Neeps are still in the garden and I’ll go out once I’m dressed, with my shotgun to hunt for the haggis! Tricky little blighters they are too! 😉
@Anitram congratulations on another HS, fingers crossed for that elusive hat trick tomorrow. @ColinUK you’re very welcome up north once we’ve all had our vaccine, Euston to Penrith, 3.5 hours! You’ll be on Ullswater within half an hour of arriving. Have a Happy Monday everyone. I’ll try, but as you know I’m very trying! 🙂
 
Just catching up after a hectic weekend. Cleaned the house from top to bottom on Saturday and then fun in the snow with my son yesterday followed by a delicious roast leg of lamb.

Lovely sunny, crisp day today but freezing cold on my dressing gown clad work to let the chickens out. Don't now why I bothered as they are not keen on the lying snow and ice. One of them didn't venture out of the roosting box at all yesterday.

A 5.3 for me at 06:58 this morning following on from a 6.0 at 06:59 yesterday and a 5.5 at 06:53 on Saturday.

Congrats on the two HSs @Anitram Fingers crossed for the hat trick tomorrow

Galaxy Watch 3, Apple Watch 7 might get blood sugar measurement function — SlashGear

While smartwatch makers have struggled for years to find a proper place for smartwatches, Apple pretty much created that space with a focus on health-related features that mere smart fitness bands …

And that would be the push for me to finally get back into the daily habit of wearing a watch. And of buying a smart watch.

Not worn a watch at all for something like 20 years or so since I left the City.
 
6.1 just now. Not going to dwell on what it was at 5am after laying awake for 3 hours.
