Group 7-day waking average?

Self explanatory. On the exercise bike today. 6.5 this morning after a home made beef curry last night.
 
Morning

Not best amused today, upstairs neighbours were in all day yesterday yet waited until 10pm to start dragging furniture around, 10:30pm and the washing machine starts rattling our kitchen light, 10:45pm and they start slamming the house door, running up and down the stairs and running in and out the back door pressing the button each time which makes a high pitched screeching noise (right outside my bedroom window!)

Despite lack of sleep and feeling very frustrated it's a 7.3 for me, up from 6.6 at bedtime last night after a few biscuits (so what!)

A thin dusting of snow covers the ground (don't know how considering it didn't stop raining/sleeting/wet snowing at all yesterday!) but apparently should see more snow today, again, I'll believe it when I see it
xx
 
A nice comfortable 5.0 this morning, a little snow overnight and mad crazy wind, a bit disappointed really, my inner child love the snow.
Have a great day everyone!!
 
Windy today. Snow forecast. 6.1
Another day of eating what’s in the fridge before going back on the exante shakes for a couple of weeks to nudge the weight down again.
Exercise is hard as I live in a built up area and am trying to stay socially distant and responsible. Also it’s cold out and I’m soft southern poof who thinks rain will obviously cause me to melt lol
That said I’m going for a walk down to the river (Thames) and back now.
 
4.7 on the south coast, no snow so feel disappointed TBH.
 
Morning all and 5.5 for me.

No snow here and not raining at the moment.

Got to sort some tracks out to send to a producer today. A side project with the first singer of my first band. A bit of dancy psychedelia. Not my usual stuff but it was fun.

Have a good day everyone.
 
It’s snowing quite heavily here now. It’s a bit wet but won’t take too much change to settle.
 
Morning everyone. 5.6 when i woke. 6.1 when i had breakfast. Not much planned for today.
 
Morning folks. A very nice 5.1 after a Ginger Nut in bed, oh and I had a biscuit too! 😛 No snow ooop North, we weren’t forecast any TBF. It looks cold out though, must force ourselves out for a walk, I might even put a coat on @ColinUK! Have a super Sunday and stay safe.🙂
 
Morning everyone, it’s 5.6 for me this morning! A lovely long walk yesterday and a salmon, spinach, leeks and cream cheese with celeriac extravaganza last night helped keep things on the straight and narrow!

5.5 for me this morning but it took 5 lift tablets through the night to get me there even though I dialed my Levemir back half a unit and still didn't fit any formal exercise in yesterday. Even more shocking is the fact that I had a fish and chip supper last night.... Sorry fellow "low carbers" but I went off piste for the first time in an awful long time!
I was 5.7 before eating (7.15pm). Injected 5 units of Fiasp and ate pretty much straight away. Just had a small portion.... tail end of fish in batter and about 15 chips, mostly smaller ones. The fish was absolutely gorgeous.... so moist and tender.... and the chips were pretty good too and the batter crunchy. Yum! BG peaked at 7.7 an hour and a half later and was stable mid 6s at bedtime. Fully expected it to rise through the night but dropped into the red twice! 😱 May need to do more fish supper experiments this year!

@Michael12421 Did Pablo manage to get your car started and perhaps out for a little run?

@Iwillgetthere Sending (((hugs))) cos it sounds like you need them. Sometimes the more I try the less things work and I need to hit the point when I think "stuff this" and be more relaxed for a couple of days for it all to work better. My fish supper last night was a prime example. If I was doing really well with my control, I would not have risked my good stats by even contemplating it, but things are going rubbish despite my best efforts and my TIR is at an all time low and BG levels are in double figures nearly more than in range, so I had nothing to lose and even though I hypoed twice through the night I feel so much better for being more relaxed and just "going for it" and being almost "normal" for one evening! Not sure if that makes any sense to you but hope you find a way forward that works for you. XX

🙂 I prefer a Brunette but each to their own.

It certainly does make alot of sense! Thank you for your hugs, your words and thoughts and for the description of your fish supper I can almost taste the crispy batter! A reset and recharge and I will get there xxx
 
5.3 for me this morning. Had some sweet treats last night so hope to exercise it off today. Although it's snowing outside...

Speak for yourself Elaine! 😉 May need to check on a map but I don't think you are any further north than me.
We have a white smattering here in the bottom of the valley and I would be surprised if there isn't a couple of inches or more up the hill. Like @Kaylz (who is definitely further north than both of us, I am really surprised that it is lying as it was so desperately wet yesterday!
