Group 7-day waking average?

8.0 it was looking like I needed to change my correction dose at night so applied that at bedtime last night but woke up at 4.2 at 3.15 so had a few glucose tabs. Got my danfe induction call this morning so I need to that phone
 
Wordle in 3 today.
 
6.8 this morning. Off to Cornwall today for a weekend away with the band I play in. We’re doing a couple of concerts and just having a good weekend away, so maybe I should get up and packing! Never been to Cornwall before.
 
5.8 for me first thing this morning. 🙂

I just failed Wordle! Four green letters on the 3rd go, just the wrong starting letter, then chose the wrong starting letter again…and again…and again..
It was a toughie, took us both five. We’ll explain your failure today on not quite yet feeling 100%. 🙂

Well that phone seems to be no where to be seen should have swapped the SIM cards straight away. I have emailed asking if they was any chance of doing the screening another way which I understand is a bit of a long shot but thought it was worth asking. So I may have messed things up I really wanted to get danfee down as leads to better chances of things.
 
Morning

8.something today

Don't think I'm very popular with my grandad at the moment, when I phoned him last night I had a wee word with him about his lack of thought and care for his actual family, mum wouldn't tell me how she was feeling as she's not that kind of person but as someone who's dad has no interest in them either and makes no effort to even respond to a text I know exactly what it feels like

Anyway for the 2nd day in a row I've had a Blueberry Muffin for breakfast, Bruce is a bad influence! :rofl: xx
 
Good morning. A rather grey day. BG 5.8. The great workshop clear out is approaching the end: one more day should do it. The new bench will provide a permanent home for the band and scroll saws; the chain saw file turned up yesterday (whoopee); why do I have a 2ft long by 1 inch twist drill; why do I measure in metric and think in imperial? The foul cold is slowly departing altho' I still sound like a Victorian TB ward. Life (like my blasted weight) is definitely on the up - next major task is to get back on to strict diet.
Hope everyone is having an OK day.
 
Morning all, it’s a 4.8 for me this fine sunny day.
 
Good morning all! 4.5 on waking this morning, rising to 5.2 an hour later when I had breakfast. New sensor seems to be good but I’m not going down the road of constantly comparing with finger stick tests and will just go with it as long as it seems reasonable.

Got my hospital dietician appointment next Friday afternoon so I need to start a food diary this weekend to take with me.
 
Well I was 20 mins off a really lovely unicorn day yesterday and then I hit the red at 11.40pm and then again 3 times since then, two of them just showing "Lo" on my Libre 😱 The first at 1am and the second at 4.30am. That first "Lo" was actually a 2.9 when I checked it and I couldn't be bothered to test the other one because I was clearly hypo. 4 units of Levemir worked perfectly the night before so it was reasonable to assume it was a good choice for last night too. (Shrugging emoji) Anyway, my waking reading was 7.7 this morning but it wasn't a good night.

Pleased to report I got Wordle in 3 this morning. Got a green 2nd letter with my first attempt and the first 3 green with my second, but then had quite a bit of head scratching for the last two in that it was hard to imagine any of the remaining letters working rather than the problem you guys had with too many options. Then had a lightbulb moment!
I am surprised you didn't get it @Robin with the horsey connection. You clearly must still be under the weather.

I am off to a music and dance show tonight at Sunderland Empire.... "Lost in music - One night at the disco" Hoping they encourage us to get up and have a good boogie at the end. Must try to keep out of the red this afternoon as I don't want to miss it or be late due to a hypo and being unable to drive.

Congrats to @Wannie on your House Special achievement this morning.

Good luck to @rayray119 in getting your DAFNE induction sorted.
 
Morning all and it was a 4.7 for me.

Collected prescription today and it looks like the Libre 2s I got last time as I'm back on the originals.

Got a letter yesterday telling me I have an appointment with the hernia repair surgeon. I was expecting to wait months so let's see what happens there.

Managed to get a few jobs done in the garden before the heavens opened which must mean it's brew time.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Afternoon all. I had a 4.9 this morning. Sooo tired today! Glad its Friday and just over 2 hours left at work. Its going to be a long afternoon.
 
G'day all. Terrible weather. Poor postlady was soaked, earns every penny delivering my new Joe Hill book. 🙂

8.1 for me today, back to the Slimfast then. 🙄 Have a good day all, keep your powder dry!
 
Afternoon all

Completely forgot to post this morning. I was 4.6 with a flat line overnight and a Unicorn 24 hours. Now, after lunch (ham and chicken sarnie with tomatoes on Morrison's Spelt bread), I am 9.6 and heading skywards.

Finally seen the end of Celebrity Masterchef. I think the winner deserved it. Also seen 6 episodes of The Power of the Ring". It's more like Game of Thrones than Lord of the Rings, but the settings are stunning!

Still testing positive this morning, though I feel absolutely fine. Have had to rearrange my flu jab though as I'd hate to pass it on to anyone vulnerable whilst in the GP surgery.

Well done on the HS @Wannie

Enjoy your show @rebrascora

Have a good day all!

6.5 this morning, saw nurse and she's very happy with me. Still lost 3lb more over the past 3 weeks even though I ate a few more calories last week (though still not excessive). Bloods in about 2 months to check HbA1c.

(She also said to only test a couple of days a week now, fasting and one post meal... though I ignored her instruction last time to only do those and have just been recording the pre-meal ones I've done and the days I've checked more than one meal afterwards in MySugr not the paper book with the meter 😉 )
