Group 7-day waking average?

Morning folks, another 7.2 for me. Grandson brought all 4 of his elves with him and spent ages last night finding places to hide them, it worked well, so far he has only found one, thinks they may have gone home lol.
Have an appt up in London again on Tuesday for video urodynamics which is the test I need before they will do my next op so really pleased to have got it so early. Decorating the tree today and making mince pies with the little one so that should be fun. Will definitely be sending him and hubby to the park later for a break.
Have a good day all x
 
Morning

8.something today, I usually log it in my Libre app but left my phone in the living room seen as I'm sensorless, reported it yesterday afternoon as had me constantly at 2.9! They are replacing and was told to bin the faulty one

Yet another hoover is on it's way out, just spraying cat litter about rather than picking it up, mum wants a Henry as the next hoover xx
 
4.5 for me this morning. 🙂

Morning All
A respectable 7.0 this morning to brighten me up.
Have a great day.
 
Good morning everyone.
3.8 on my Libre and a slow steady decline on the graph. Double check with BG meter gave a 4.8 so quite happy with that. Not so happy about the amount of basal insulin I am needing to achieve it but "we need what we need" and that overnight graph suggests I can knock a unit off tonight perhaps. Yomped about 7 miles yesterday so it is really quite disappointing that I am still needing so much at the moment. Just 7 units of Fiasp though yesterday and pleased to report TIR for past 7 days is heading back up towards 90% and below % is reducing, so overall things are improving.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.
 
Good morning

6.4 today so heading in the right direction. Going to marzipan some cakes later and start on the Christmas decs. Just the shopping list and grocery shop to do first. Oh and lost 1lb this week.

@Nikki53 - welcome to the forum and this thread.


Have a lovely day everyone.
 
6.7 today. It's little Abby's 9th birthday today so out for a meal at a favourite place of hers. It's nice and quiet so she doesn't feel overwhelmed with sensory input. Our little one has PDA so outings can be challenging. Hope it all goes well. It's strange, she has been diagnosed as on the autism spectrum but she is able to dissemble and deceive, which is definitely not an autistic trait. Autistic children very rarely have the ability to lie or deceive. She is a beautiful happy little girl and we love her to bits.
 
Morning Part 2 🙂
Bit of pain management, time and just slices of cold meat for brekkie and dropped back to an acceptable 8.4 🙂
Will stay on top of pain and be careful what I eat and hopefully my body will behave itself for the rest of the day 🙄
 
Just remembered it is @freesia's birthday today. Hope you have a lovely day and you are having a relaxing trip away. Very Happy Birthday!
 
Good morning all. We are away in sunny Oxford atm. After almost a whole day in target yesterday i had a tiny hypo just before tea.
At least i woke to a 5.6 this morning. Had a hotel cooked breakfast this morning (yum, so nice to have it done for you and no washing up) we're off for a wander around sunny Oxford today, a spot of lunch and a birthday meal somewhere later. After the stressful week i've had, this is going to be a lovely day.
Have a good one whatever you are all doing.
I'll catch up with you all later.

Happy birthday! Glad you’ve got sunshine on your weekend away. It’s chucking it here. Have a great time and relax. 🙂
 
😡 so last CMS didn't have all test strips, chemist said they would call back to let me know why, they didn't, Bruce was going to collect it last week but we decided he shouldn't due to the weather, just called to check it was definitely them that was ready, yes but only 2 pots, pharmacist at the health centre says she's been trying to call you for a couple of weeks to review you, LIE I have had no calls! My next CMS is due but won't be done until I've spoken to the pharmacist at the health centre so that's my priority Monday morning! xx
 
Good morning all.

6.1 this morning, though a shocking 14.2 after having crusty bread and cheese for supper last night.

Well, as I said yesterday, the decorations were up on Friday and the new LED lights on the tree looked brill. Turned them on last night and bang.... off they went. So now got to unwind 1000 lights trying not to knock off hundreds of ornaments from the 8ft tree in order to return them to B&M. Hubby not a happy man, but putting a brave manly face on.

Happy birthday @freesia your planned day sounds lovely.

@Kaylz glad abbott are giving you a replacement sensor.

@eggyg, hope you enjoy the christmas fair and no more hypos.
 
6.6 this morning, feeling tired as had a rough night, on the sad side yesterday, hope I can shake it off. The dang chicken thighs are STILL in the freezer, I have forgotten to take them out to defrost too many times this week.....don't think plain veggie stew would be appreciated, so reckon we'll be on egg, bacon and sausage tonight .... not exactly a fry up as it gets baked and microwaved mostly, with poached eggs. I don't think there will be any complaints!!!
Have a good weekend, whatever you are doing. 🙂
