Group 7-day waking average?

Prior to the R I was on an 80d so the biggest change for me was moving from cropped to full frame sensor. I do wish the R had focus stacking for macro work however.

4.2 so all nice and level over the last month so I'm doing something right, just disappointed my DN has input no help to get to where I am.

Whilst you’re absolutely right, it’s still good to be where you are 😎
 
After all the chat about "boys toys" 🙂 better check in with a 5.5 at 06:37 this morning. After a couple of sixes it is nice to be back in the 5s. Overcast and dull in West Berks this morning but at least the wind has dropped. We are promised sunshine for the next couple of days so hopefully spring is on the way but doubtless winter will have at least one more trick to play.

It's now six weeks since I stopped the Metformin and my seven day waking average over those six weeks has varied between 5.47 and 5.94 with the average over the whole six weeks being 5.72
 
Forgot to say congrats to @Kaylz and @Lanny on the HSs - well done yo both
 
7.3 for me this morning after another basal increase. Really hoping I can keep somewhere close to between the lines today. I had 2 nasty sub 3 hypos yesterday and a 16!!.... Still got fatigue and upset stomach but not needing painkillers for the aching body anymore thankfully. Hoping to get out for a walk today.

Many congratulations on your House Specials to @Kaylz and @Lanny particularly as I know it is rare occurrence for you. Makes them all the more special when they are really few and far between but very happy to see you get some more!
.... And congrats to @eggyg on your eggy special!
 
Good morning. 5.5 this morning to meet up with @eggyg
Day 3 in auto mode on my pump. Hands off and let it sort things out!! Difficult to do and I do keep checking and admiring its work as it keeps me flat overnight. I was a bit disappointed when it woke me early to ask for a BG this morning. I think I may have been lying on the sensor. I used to get breaks on the Libre output for that reason.

Well done @Lanny and @Kaylz with your HS. A day for celebrations.
Well done on finding a solution to overnights @freesia and I hope you have a better day after that good start. @eggyg might let you have one of her ginger nuts if you need an alternative.

A day to get out in the garden but sticking to the bits I can access from the path as it is still too soggy to walk on. Loving seeing the bulbs appearing, frog spawn in the pond, a newt, ... and it is warm.
 
Well done @Lanny @Kaylz on your HS, CONGRATS!!

I'm with @Michael12421 this morning at 5.9. Higher than usual for me tbf, I blame it on the indulgent biscuits I ate late last night. That'll teach me!

I'm a Canon man so my last upgrade was to a mirrorless R when they came out. I love it but would love to upgrade to an R5 or R6 but can't justify the expense just yet

He contemplated the Cannon but has a load of Nikon lenses. He’s upgraded from D7000 and is loving the full frame so far.

Lenses are always the problem with changing make of bodies. I have a stack of Canon glass so it would be a major re-investment to change makes.
 
Right. I need to sort it out. I have been so bad at keeping to my word to sort my weight and levels out after having Eris so I am finally trying!

9.6 this morning. Absolutely gutted considering I was right down into the 5s and 4s this time last year while I was pregnant!

However I’m owning it. It’s all my fault. The hard work starts here I guess. Hope everyone is well.

Yes your right, forward thinking from now on, I'm on track and that's all that matters so now Baking Keto loaf it's so good all made from scratch so saving ££££'s as I was buying online already made.
 
@merrymunky Lovely to see you back here. Hope you can make it a daily visit as you know it will help to keep you focused. We are all rooting for you to get those numbers down a bit. Hope you are all keeping well. Feel free to include the odd photo of Eris to brighten up our mornings.
 
@Kaylz congrats on the HS and glad you will have a little more time for yourself and not have to worry about your grandad x
@merrymunky lovely to see you back on this post x

thanks, shame today is more stressful than usual though, mum's got her vaccine today so I'll be stuck with Bubbles on my own while trying to get my dinner seen to and he's already being a pain cause he's not gotten through to wander about xx
 
You are all so lucky to have had - or been offered - the anti Covid jab. No such luck here. At the moment it is the only over 80's that are getting it irrespective of underlying conditions. I have a telephone appointment with my doctor on March 2nd so I will ask him when I can be expected to be offered it. Andalucia has been widely condemned for their general lack of approach in this. Got my car back today after 6 weeks so tomorrow I will go to Ubeda to get a much-needed grooming kit as the Wild Man of Borneo has nothing on me.

You might not have had your jab but at least you can get your hair cut! Joking aside, I hope it’s not too long until you have your vaccine. I had mine two weeks ago and Mr Eggy having his on Saturday. He has a very complex heart condition so I’m very, very relieved. I would have given up mine for him but they wouldn’t let me. Take care tomorrow whilst driving as your hair will be in your eyes!
 
Morning all. 7.7 @ 6.08 I've got to lay off the Frank's ice cream. I was passing the darned freezer cabinet in Tesco and there it was...

Congrats on House Specials to @Kaylz and @Lanny and congrats to @eggyg on your special! Nice to see you back on here @merrymunky 🙂
