Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning
On waking my Blood Glucose levels was 6.3
 
Morning all. Glorious again. 🙂 Can't be bothered this morning, all that struggling to get a bead of blood.
 
4.1 Have had a lovely weekend in garden son out with his girlfriend wife visiting daughter in Brighton so just me my cat and the robin who follows me as I dig holes for new plants. Cat was digging holes in newly dug soil but he planted something smelly and wanted to eat the robin. I have been so happy this weekend not felt like this in years :D .

PS. Have stopped the Statins having mad dreams and memory is poor so will get a private cholesterol test in a month cant be assed to mess about with the GP's but I have informed them of stopping meds.

Congratulations on the House Special @khskel
 
Congrats to @khskel on today's HS and to those who got them over the weekend.

Went down with a dreadful stomach bug on Friday afternoon which lasted until early Saturday morning. Everyone else was fine so it wasn't my cooking! Saturday morning and I was 6.8 at 04:13 - I guess I was running high because of the bug. The "good news" was I did loose 4lbs in 12 hours although I suspect that might be fluid! Felt fine by lunchtime and did a barbie on Saturday afternoon - it was lovely to be in the sun with a glass of Pims and lemonade, home made turmeric spiced chicken kebabs and homemade char sui pork burgers. Back to more normal levels (for me) with a 5.1 at 07:02 on Sunday and a 5.5 at 06:42 today.

Have a great week everyone

Good morning everyone 🙂

7:48am - 13.3 finger prick - arghhh because I'm doing everything I can to get this D right and everything my DSN has said to do
22:14pm - 4.4 - bedtime - DSN said to have 15g - 20g of carbs if bedtime bgs are below 8mmol so I had 1 tuna and salad cream sandwich on 1 round of hovis which was just 18g of carbs and no insulin

What did you have for dinner last night Gill and when did you eat it?
 
Congratulations on your HS @khskel

5.7 for me this morning, after some higher numbers again yesterday, which I was struggling to understand, but the sneezing this morning makes me think I am coming down with the cold my husband has, so that might explain the numbers, plus again a sign that things are getting back to normal if we have colds.

Did manaage a lovely almost 5 mile run yesterday, so starting to get back to where I want to be. Just 1/2 stone and I will be back to my pre-lockdown weight, then 12lb after that to get to the weight I want to be.

Have a nice day everyone.
 
7.7 on putting feet on the floor. Been a little high all day. 1st day back at work I’m guessing.

Hope everyone had a good day.
 
Morning...wow, looks like I’m first up🙂 6.8 for me.

Lovely morning...am off to the antiques market for the first time in so long. I wonder if I’ll buy anything...just happy to look today. Massive siesta when I get home me thinks.

Have a lovely day everyone.
 
I was hoping I might be first up this morning. Hmmm.

However, 5.2 for me this morning. Yessss !!!
 
Morning all 7.7 for me, nothing makes sense!!
@Gwynn congrats on your HS.
Have a good day everyone x
 
Good morning
Im joining @Gwynn with a HS
5.2 for me today
 
I’m happy with a 5.6 this morning. Not sure what the weather is doing today. I’m, bit by bit, renovating the tarmac on our drive.

I watched the C5 programme last night about Fred & Rosemary West. It’s mind boggling that after so many years they still don’t know how many girls they murdered!
 
4.1 again but no complaints.
 
Good morning. 9.7 for me, a bit too high and it hovered just outside of target all night but no high alarms! Instead, i was up 3 times with the heat and toilet 🙄 . Ah well, hopefully things are settling down, though i don't want to speak too soon.

@Gwynn, congrats on the HS. In work so got to go. Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning my fellow bloodletters. A very nice 5.5.

Off out for the day today, we’re going to the Yorkshire Dales, in Cumbria! I know, it’s crazy. There’s a part of the country up here, where we can stand in Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire all at the same time! They keep moving the boundaries, a bit like this government during the pandemic! Anyhoo, no more politics. 🙄 We’re walking along side of the Carlisle to Settle line. There’s a steam train passing the start point ( Garsdale Head) at 11.48am. So Mr Eggy happy and that’s all that matters.😛

Congratulations to @Gwynn and @goodybags on their HSs this morning and to @khskel yesterday.

@HenryBennett I too watched the programme about the Wests. Absolutely shocking. 😡

Have a great day all. 🙂
