Group 7-day waking average?

It’s three layers and each layer would give 16 portions. So if I manage to cut this into 16ths it’s 3 x 6gms carbs.

The recipe is scalable up and down and oddly, as it’s divided into 16ths for nutrition, is enough to make a dozen cupcakes.

And of course mine’s the top one. Off you’re viewing it from Australia!
 
I'm never really tempted by cake but I could dive into that one head first and eat my way out nom nom nom 🙂

Good evening all, 7.5 @ 7.54am
 
Good morning. And 5.7 for me.
Checked four times yesterday out of curiosity rather than any particular need but by doing so I automatically tightened up what I was eating and I’m pleased to say the variance yesterday was a whole 1.0 over the entire day.

I am curious to see how the cake impacts BG later on. Zoom tea this afternoon with my bonkers family.
 
Morning all,
A 6.1 again today.
For anyone interested after my Covid vaccine on Thursday afternoon, I felt a bit achy for part of yesterday. The nurse mentioned that this could be the case for some and paracetamol was ok to take. So I took 2 and went to bed early (oh I may have had a G&T!)
Anyhoo woke up this morning after a good sleep right as rain!
Oddly enough my pulse rate which is usually 50 bpm was up 10 beats all day, back down again.
Hope its helpful. Got my eye on @ColinUK chocolate cake yum!

Blessings Snowwy
 
4.8 this morning at 6am.
 
Good morning 🙂 7.9 for me today - that's a week that I have woken in the 7s, unusual for me. As many know, I don't use basal insulin, so I have no control over what happens at night, but commonly I would drop quickly into the 5s and have a perfect faltfish until waking. Currently I'm still doing the drop, but not as far, and then my levels gradually climb towards dawn from about 3 am. I think it may be due to my recent illness, lack of exercise and the most hideous time of the year for me - January :( Looking forward to Spring like never before! 🙂
 
Morning all, 5.1 here, so close! Waiting to see if the rain turns to snow mid morning as forecast, or whether we just get buckets of cold sleet. Either way, I’m staying home, I went to exercise my horse yesterday just in case I couldn’t get there today.
 
Morning all. 5.9 on this dry morning. We’ve been promised sunshine, we’ll see. Did my Big Garden Bird Watch ( details on my bird thread, Off the subject) yesterday as it dried off and was calm. Glad it’s done, I get stressed about it! Our dining room is just about finished apart from the curtains haven’t arrived yet. Books on shelves, some china in place, got some other bits and pieces to find places for. I will end up moving it about for a week until I’m satisfied. I’m supposed to be de-cluttering but not finding it easy! We also need pictures for the walls, Mr Eggy on that. Our house is full of his own photos and this room will be no exception, they’re all going to be black and white landscapes. We’re really pleased with it, loving the colour, Mr Eggy has done a grand job yet again. I quite like being married to a perfectionist, even if everything does takes for ever! Have a good day and stay safe. 🙂

Morning

A cold and frosty morning here today

A better 6.0 for me this morning
xx
 
I slept in this morning having been up very late last night. A 4.6 at 07:55 which I don’t understand.
 
7.0 for me this morning but that was after a correction at bedtime, an increase of 2 units of evening Levemir and another correction of 1.5units of Fiasp an hour and a half before I got out of bed this morning so not sure what is going on! Don't think I can blame the new sensor I put on last night.... Maybe it was looking at and dreaming about @ColinUK 's birthday cake! Hope it does less to your levels than it did to mine Colin and really impressed that you made the effort to bake yourself one! Happy Birthday and hope you enjoy your family time later even if it isn't in person. Let's hope once we get the vaccine we are all able to celebrate these events properly again and won't that be something to celebrate in itself!
 
Oooer, there’s posh @eggyg! I feel I should curtsy, Lady Eggyg of the Manor, tee hee. :D

Morning all.🙂 7.9 here.

Well, my mum is fiiiiinally getting her jab after my brother spent half an hour on the phone sorting it out - her surgery said they couldn’t find her in the system! 😳😛
 
Morning all it’s an 8 for me.

@ColinUK cake looks lovely. For all that bake where do you get the patience from......

I’ve decided after being back in the group for a few weeks now that I am incredibly lazy when it comes to cooking and baking, note to self must try harder

my results back yesterday from eye test and all good for another year phew
