Group 7-day waking average?

Robin said:
A new one. Thursday 8.00pm BBC2, followed by Nadiya Hussain at 8.30. I find the Mary Berry one more restful, I like Nadiya as a cook, but the programme has been jazzed up with masses of vibrant colour (her clothes, the background decor, not just the food!) and I find it a bit of a strain on the eyes.

Oh I know what you mean. It’s all a bit frenetic isn’t it?
 
Haven’t read today’s post on this thread yet & will at some point! 😳

Just to post this & going back to bed! Woke up inextricably high at 03:26 BS 10.1 whenI’d gone to bed at 19:18 2 hours after dinner borderline ok ish BS 8.3 WHAT? 😱

I have since struggled to keep my BS under control & was at 15.4 post breakfast & have just gone back down to a reasonable ish BS 8.0 after corrections! o_O

Was just about to nod off when I got a call from tesco delivery saying they’re not coming to deliver my order of 1 pack of mushrooms! 😱 I’d completely FORGOTTEN to cancel my usual start of the week slot this week as I still have food left over from my extra birthday weekend delivery: had 2 last week on Monday AND Thursday; tesco said ok & they’ve cancelled today’s order & delivery that was bookedAGES ago for 11:00 to 12:00 & we both had a giggle!:D Apparently it happens quite often as people on delivery saver book ages in advance & secure the slot with 1 item & only fill the basket properly closer to the booked slot: I completely forgot & since I went to bed early I’d missed the usual text message for last minute changes the evening before the slot; too busy battling high BS this morning to check my phone!😳:D😱😉

My eyes are SO blurry from tiredness & it’s actually almost time for Tresiba at 11:30 so, hang on until then & go back to bed! I’m definitely feeling under the weather today & my BS is reflecting that!

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

Hopefully feel better after some more sleep? :confused:

Morning all. 6.2 when I got up at 5.30am! I just didn’t want to disturb you all, you all seemed so peaceful! :D

Busy, busy day. Already marinaded my pork fillet, ( Mary Berry’s sticky soy and ginger pork served with some nice rolls and spring onions) and got the gammon in the oven, had a bacon, sausage and egg buttie for my breakfast. Can you tell we like pig in our house? At osteopath at 9am and if he does acupuncture again like last week, I’ll be really stiff so wanted as much done as possible for our granddaughter’s birthday party tonight. Cooked a goose yesterday, long story, the plan was to have Chinese style shredded goose pancakes but I can’t get hold of pancakes. Mr Eggy has attempted to make some but they’re a bit chapati/flatbread sort of texture but hey, beggars can’t be choosers! I’ve also made Christmas mince pies and pigs in blankets with sage and onion stuffing sausage rolls. More pig! We do have fish too, homemade mackeral pate, salmon and watercress pinwheels. Chilli prawns. I’ll also do some sandwiches, egg and cress, (classic) and ham. Daughter bringing birthday cake, I was going to make one but just can’t fit it in. Only got rid of the farmers’ children at 3 o’clock yesterday! It’s been a pretty hectic few days. I couldn’t do this every week! It’ll be all right on the night as they say!

See you all tomorrow. I’ll save you some cake! Have a good day.🙂

@eggyg its my birthday on Saturday. Do you want to do some of that for me? It all sounds delicious. I'll be happy with leftovers lol
 
04:30 BS 8.2 Above target but, held steady after a marathon sleep of 14 hours:went to bed on 12:30 BS 8.1. 🙂 Still a bit bunged & sniffy but, a bit better!🙄

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

Definitely don’t want to eat yet so DP busted & hopefully it won’t be such a struggle to keep BS under control today? :confused:

Was watching all the episodes of The Wheel on iPlayer, this year’s 5 so far & last year’s 9, & I LOVE it! 😛😛😛 It’s SUCH a unique mix of completely random specialist knowledge brought by each celebrity expert, sheer chance, Michael McIntyre’s very funny wit & banter with the celebrities!😛😎:D I never laughed SO much watching a quiz game show!😱:D😛
 
Morning all. 9.3 for me. I’ve had a bit of a wobble for the last three days on the healthy eating side of things but I’m at work today so can only eat what I take in so it will be a good day!
 
7.2 today and leaving early from work as have hygienist at 10, another thing I don’t like doing. However I have taken next week off - 5 weeks after going back I need a break, I’m worn out and demoralised so lots of Christmas shopping and catching up with people next week will do the world of good.
Have a good day all x
 
Good morning 6.1 today after a disturbed nights sleep
nighttime hypo at 2:30 am was 3.1 rescued by a few lifts then 20 min later was 5.2

have a great day everybody
 
Good morning to you all. I love the 'good mornings' here. Makes it so pleasant. So very human and personal.

BG 4.8 back to the 4's

Day 10 of my 10 day self isolation which means the op is tomorrow. I was so nervous about it last night I ate half a bar of Lindt 90% dark chocolate and yet my weight this morning dropped 0.2Kg. I don't know why I am feeling so nervous because the op will be completely painless. I think it's the worry about if it goes wrong and I lose the sight in one eye...

Just wrestling with a logic problem to do with dates in my App

Ahh 1st of Dec. I can open the first Advent calendar month door and scoff the hidden chocolate. I will wait until later until my wife has got up (usually around lunch time. I kid you not)

Lots of little op preparation stuff things to do and to remember today

Have a great day whatever you are doing
 
Morning all. 7.6 for me. Another early start to work but hopefully i'll be home earlier as its older daughters 28th birthday and she's coming for tea. Catch up later.
 
Morning all.
Still firmly full of cold and my throat is so sore it’s like a hedgehog did a jig in there overnight.

Got out for a pesky 5km run yesterday but think I’ll stay in mainly today. Have an advent calendar to deliver to the friend I’ve mentioned falling out with recently.
I don’t know if it’ll be accepted or rejected but I’m going to deliver it anyway.

7.6 this morning for me. All down to the cough and cold I’m sure.
 
5.8 which makes the grey skies even more depressing. 432 cals and 17 carbs yesterday so I was hoping for reward. Lots of exercise moving topper, straw etc in barn, sorting out workshop (yeh - floor space already!)mucking out the pony and chasing the dog. I should be as slim as an elf with the blood sugar of a lemon. Instead stuck at 66kg which gives me a healthy BMI but doesn't obviously meet Prof Taylor's advice that if you haven't remitted you are too fat for you. Harrumph. One grumpy old lady this a.m.
 
7.1 here which I am amazed at considering I got around to testing "me vs pasta" last night.
Yeah, that went as well as expected 😱

Have a great day peeps 🙂
 
Morning folks, and in the words of Noddy Holder. It’s Christmassssssss! :D

Anyhoo 7.2, birthday buffet induced although I don’t even lick my fingers when I cut the birthday cake, the sweet smell had already sent me hyper! Good night was had by all, and sorry @rebrascora as I predicted leftovers NIL! :D The dishes are all piled up ready to go in the dishwasher, had one load on last night plus loads of hand washing.:(

Going to try and chill out today, after the last wash before tomorrow’s holiday down in Hawkshead, no long drive down south this time, ironing and packing that won’t take long, capsule walking holiday wardrobe, three t shirts, two pairs walking trousers, fleece. Pair of jeans and a decent jumper for maybe going to the pub! Oh and underwear of course!
Of course I hope I will be walking, yesterday’s pummelling at the osteopath has left me a bit achy but my pelvis does feel looser. Had to have sacrum realigned yet again though!

Have a good day all and good luck for tomorrow @Gwynn, it’ll be fine.🙂
@freesia if I wasn’t on holiday on Saturday I would have thrown you a party. Soz! 😉
