Group 7-day waking average?

6.3 for me this morning. I bit higher than I’m happy with.
 
Another near miss for me 5.1 at 6am this morning.

Good morning everyone. I may go for a walk later on if it warms up. I hope my wife will come with me. It does us both good.
 
4.6 for me this morning. 🙂

Morning all. 3.9 for me, a complete turnaround. Probably stress about my day today. Will see

@Bexlee will definitely have alarm on. Will be surprising what the kids say
@Michael12421 congrats on the HS

Very poor sleep last night. Went to bed at midnight and basically awake since 2am.
Tested and returned a 7.
Ate nothing carby yesterday so think it’s probably to do with a mix of exercise, stress, sleeplessness.
Expecting it to be high tomorrow after my trip this afternoon for my second COVID vaccination.

All the best for the jab...
 
Good morning all. I came in on my second ever 5.2mmol at 0615 this morning. Dinner last night was salmon, greens and salad followed by raspberries and greek yoghurt. One very small glass of red wine followed by copious amounts of fizzy water.

Big day at work so have been prepping up until 2300 and felt stressed so the BG result is a surprise - not helped by a phone call from my mother who tells me she has just started seeing someone 21 years her junior...I'm happy for her if she's happy but need to check the dude out! Dad passed 6 years ago and was 10 years her senior - so she's gone the other way!

Just checking some notes over a breakfast of kippers and poached eggs with spinach no less.

Facetime with home complete, coffee being sunk and wishing you all a fabulous midweek Wednesday!
 
Good Morning on a Wet Wednesday
bit of a High 8.0 on waking today
 
Well, I called a halt to my experiment at 2.15am when I had a reading of 11.3. Injected 2 units of Fiasp and was still 8.3 when I woke up at 7am, so despite my exercise yesterday which normally lowers my levels, that meal was still releasing glucose this morning and clearly needs insulin but would probably benefit from 2 -3 units of Levemir rather than bolus insulin. Will try that next time! Two consistent results in a row so either the DF accepted my placating glass of sherry or she has been visiting someone else causing mischief...... Clearly not @Michael12421 who got a "Sooper Dooper" House Special. I wanted to give that half a dozen likes because I know how rare that is for you! So pleased. Hope it brightened your day... it did mine!
Congrats also to @Clifton on your second HS in 3 days isn't it! Makes you jealous when these Type 2s make it look so easy! Don't at all begrudge you it though.... You are doing great!

@Lanny So pleased you got your Levemir prescription sorted. I can imagine that must have caused a lot of stress. Out of curiosity, was it Toujeo they suggested?
 
Morning all, 6.7 here. Had a lovely day out yesterday, but did a couple of short but steep walks at pace up to see a couple of monuments (and to admire the view from the top). So late afternoon back home I had one of those stubborn hypos that you just can’t resist over treating, followed by spag bol which I bolused for, but my BG never left the 6s...until bedtime when it was steadily climbing. Gave myself a one unit correction dose, and by 4am it had levelled off, but still in the 9s. So I did another unit correction, and ended up in the 6s this morning. Odd that an excess of fast acting carbs taken at 5pm didn’t show up in my system til midnight!

Congrats on the HS, @Michael12421 and @Clifton !

She was visiting me last night, @rebrascora !
