Group 7-day waking average?

Personally I wouldn't correct at 2 hours @Lanny unless your certain on how much NR you still have on board, when I was newly diagnosed and wasn't sure if I got a full dose of Tresiba I was advised to just correct with my NR if needed until my next dose xx

Thanks for that @Kaylz 🙂 I’ll do that then & correct before dinner!

Suspected I hadn’t peaked 14:53 BS 12.8 at 2 hours & 5 minutes! 😱
 
Good bike ride this morning all undone by the fish and chips lunch on Poole Quay midway through! No sunshine but an eerie quality to Poole harbour with mists hanging over Shell Bay Studland on the left out of sight and the Purbeck Hills in the distance.
This taken from the footbridge East of Hamworthy Park. I should have done a panoramic shot but so many settings on this new Xaomi 'phone I get lost in the menus......and I'm a retired I.T guy...sad 'ain't it!

I bought a couple of USB insole footwarmers for those cold nights, they are brilliant, although tethered by the cable...They were about £10, the best £10 I ever spent.... If you want I'll try and find a link...

Do you have a hot water bottle @Kaylz

Sadly not, I gave mines to my mum when the washer in hers went and she's never bothered to see about a new washer or hot water bottle xx

Thanks for the offer of looking for a link but they aren't something I'd be interested in, mostly only my upper body that gets cold especially after sweating like I was when I was hypo xx
 
Ah! Just got a call back from DSN & she says my BS is doing really well & to give Tresiba a week before any changes! The Tresiba is still getting up to speed & will need a bit more Novorapid while it gets there! Only correct before meals if needed! BS is starting to come down now 16:18 BS 10.9 at 3 hours & 29 minutes after mark! Will see where it’s at when I eat dinner later?
 
Good morning everyone. 8.6 for me. Up early and off on a shopping day with a friend. We travel, shop, coffee, shop, lunch, shop, drink, shop, meal....you get the picture. Have a good day yourselves.

@Michael12421 i hope your levels go up quickly.
 
Good morning everyone

My last day of freedom for a couple of months as I self isolate before eye operations. I will go for a walk 5his morning (if it's not too cold). A bit sad and stressed by the prospect of being locked in my own home for a while. Sigh.

BG this morning 4.8 nice

Weight spot on nice

Etc etc yawn

Minor update to App today to include a rolling self isolation status and duration. Should take about 30 minutes. An obvious update. But I only just thought of it.

Bought a Ninja Foodi online last night as a Christmas present for my wife as she seems to have gotten into cooking and cooking gadgets. Got to rearrange some stuff in the kitchen diner for it. Might do that today. No idea if the thing will turn out to be a blessing or....

Have a great day whatever you do (or don't do)
 
06:22 BS 6.5 🙂 I’ll take that!

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

Well, I fell asleep for a bit some time after the BS 10.9 reading but, woke later on 22:36 BS 8.4 & was pretty relieved that it didn’t stay above 10 while I slept: just couldn’t keep my eyes open anymore after waking early twice in a row! DP busted with +2 NR higher than usual as I was over target range & ate breakfast 23:51 BS 7.8 with usual dose to see where that leaves me before dosing off. 01:58 BS 14.9 & gave it a 18 units correction & went to back to bed again. And over 4 hours later, after active NR, I wake just in range! 🙂

I optimistically say I think I know what to do now & hopefully the corrections will be lessening today as the Tresiba comes up to a bit more speed with another dose around lunchtime? 🙄🙂

Strictly later tonight & it’s my favourite Musicals week! 😛

PS:- Little Miss Numpty FINALLY figured out that I press the dots to have the emoji drop down menu FIRST before I start typing & there wasn’t a misplaced emoji in this morning’s post! Duh! HOW long did it take me to work THAT out? 😳🙄:D😉
 
Good morning 5.7 a relief to wake up with a respectable score

not sure what I’m going to do today
if nothing might put on reading glasses and like through posts on here
🙄

hope everybody has a fantastic weekend
 
Morning folks. 6.9 today and the flattest flat line on the Libre reader I’ve ever had. It’s like I’m normal! Ha! Like that’ll ever happen. 😛

Not much going on apart from Mr Eggy’s booster jab this afternoon, whilst at that end of town we’ll probably have a wee walk through the nature reserve close by. And nip to daughter number 1’s place of work and purchase some bird food. It’s getting to that time of year when I can’t fill them! Bit like kids and grandkids! 😉

Have a great day. 🙂
 
6.3 today. Dull and still with a couple of blue patches up there in the Poole sky. 10deg atm.1Nov2021_Boscombe_Pier4.jpg
Boscombe pier 2:30 ish 1st Nov 2021 looking West towards Old Harry Rocks, the Purbeck Hills and Studland/Arne National wildlife sanctuary,
 
7.4 today. Yawn...
Have a good day xx
 
Very happy with a 6.7 this morning and no carbs or corrections overnight. Stuck with 3 units of Levemir but ate late (10pm) and had 3 scrambled eggs with a few cherry tomatoes and a few of Ian's leftover chips. Shot myself 1.5 units of Fiasp for the chips and tomato. Went to bed on 7.6 and those wonderful eggs held me steady as a rock all night.

This morning I have a new 7 day Libre TIR PB of 97% with only 1% below. Could have been 98 and 0 of course if I hadn't botched things at breakfast yesterday. Feel mentally so much better for levels being more stable though... or maybe levels are more stable because I feel better mentally. Who knows! It just all seems easy at the moment and yet 2 weeks ago it was a real battle and have no idea what has changed! This diabetes lark is unfathomable sometimes! 🙄
 
Oh.... and many congratulations to @Sugarcoated on your House Special yesterday
 
Morning

9.9 for me which I'm totally fine with after yesterday and feeling rough af last night, can only assume I may have hit muscle when I bolused for dinner yesterday and the insulin being "spent" before it's usual 4 hours as I certainly didn't overtreat but was a whopping 17.1 at teatime 😱 haven't been that high in a blooming long time! xx
