Group 7-day waking average?

[Grannylorraine]

Morning

5.7 and another cold, hoping this one is not as bad as the last one as I have only just got over coughing.

@MeeTooTeeTo - congratulations on your HS

@Barrowman - congratulations on yesterdays HS.

Morning all! 4.9, amazing after an Indian meal last night so I really must have played well in Guess The Carbs! I only Nibbled on a Naan (new game) and had a little bit of rice so that obviously helped reduce the carb load.

Still wondering about my HbA1c result of 49. I should be feeling really good about it with it being a great drop from 58 a year ago, but getting fixated on the target of < 48 which is dragging me down a rabbit hole. I’ll have a word with myself.

Congratulations @MeeTooTeeTo on your HS!

@Robin - hoping the rain holds off for you!

Have a great day everyone!

5.4 on this bright and sunny Devon morning. Bit different to yesterday when the heavens opened as soon as we hit the M5. Glad we weren't going north as there was mile after mile of stationary traffic. Just finished breakfast so will shortly check out and head west into Cornwall.

Congratulations @MeeTooTeeTo on your HS.

I’d say that your 49 is basically a 48. I’m sure it’s well within the error tolerances for the lab tests. That means that it’s really a 47. 🙂

Afternoon! 7.1 and I’m very late! Tossed and turned from 4.20, eventually fell asleep about 6.30, woke at 8.20 and I feel terrible! Lie ins don’t agree with me!

Yesterday was a shocker of a day, we hardly had a minute without rain, and it wasn’t just normal rain, it was torrential at times. Bouncing off the ground torrential. Poor Zara was stir crazy, we let her out into the garden at one stage when we had a brief respite, the respite lasted about two minutes, but she still insisted on staying out and running around the garden! She enjoyed it! Dry so far but forecast not good, Mr Eggy is very twitchy, he wants to finish his windows. Puttying ( not sure that’s a word) in the rain isn’t really a good idea! I’m ironing, as per! Or I may be taking Zara to a party as daughter has done her back in, sounds like sciatic to me, she woke with it through the night and is in agony, poor thing. Hubby works Saturdays. She’s insisting she’ll be fine and it’s literally just around the corner from where she lives so won’t need to attempt to drive. But I’m on standby.

Well done to @Barrowman on yesterday’s HS, and to @MeeTooTeeTo on todays. Also big congratulations for the super HbA1c results from @ColinUK and @Eternal422, I’ve never been in the 40s since becoming diabetic, I was 52 this year and 51 last year so just the same. My DSN is happy with that, even I ever get under 48 I’m still going to be diabetic.

Have a good day all.

Here’s some of the roof I got in the 30 seconds between showers, and one from my bathroom window when the 30 seconds was up!

Good morning everyone. First up?

BG 5.3
Temp 36.4
Pulse 50
Oxy 95
BP 117/71

Today a practice at the church in readiness for tomorrow, lots more exersize, baked potato for tea.

I don't feel as tired as I did yesterday thankfully. No idea why I felt so tired. It could have bern the very long walk on Thursday that did it.

Wierdly my wife managed to lose the kitchen sink plug yesterday!!! I looked for it evetywhere I could think (after she thought I must have tsken it!). I will just buy another one. Thankfully my wife didn't drop down that rabbit hole of paranoia....phew

We have a music festival here in a local park all weekend. I could hear last nights performances from my house, and we are a long way away. Tomorrow is the last day but (i suspect unknowingly) the church have organised a picnic in that very same park. I suspect that they may have to rearrange thr picnic!

Have a great day today whatever you are doing

Have you checked in the vegetable peelings in the bin as it is easy for it to get muddled up in those

Thanks Colin, love that line of reasoning 🙂

Well done Mr Eggyg - can't wait to see final unveiling of glasshouse.

Good morning. 6.00.

Sorry not to have been on here reliably to read all contributions, not been having a good few days or nights. Congratulations to all those hitting the magic HS in my absence. I seem to be perking up a bit and mobiity improving. Have got 95% of Mr Wolf detufted, weed killed the majority of the sad patches outside, and nearly finished the great house clean up. Who knew that 4 people could generate so much laundry and chaos? Tumble dryer seems to have been running non-stop as never any decent periods of sunshine.

Was putting on coat to face a drizzly morning potter with Wolf when a rattle like machine gun fire issued from the utility room skylight - a sudden deluge of bouncing rain, hammering and bouncing off drive, car, buildings. Put kettle on instead...Forecast suggests more such showers to come so plans for today require amending - except the one to harvest some nice globe artichokes during any cessation of attackfrom the weather gods.

Hope some of us get a few sunny intervals and enjoy them.

i could do with some of those cabbages.

Here...catch! 😛

Had a lovely day out yesterday - coffee with a friend, bumped into other friends I hadn't seen for ages, then lunch out with another group of friends. Perfect!

Almost forgot: 5.3 for me this morning.

Wow! You must have a Housing Estate Special at least by now...or a small town even.

Morning all and 7.0 for me.

Not much planned for the day. Been working on songs for the band and trying to ruthlessly sort the wheat from the chaff and the downright unlistenable. They can put up with some of my more Avant Garde tendancies but only up to a point.

Have a good day everyone.

Morning all.7.8 for me this morning.actually has been 7.8 all night Must have been them pecan nuts I had before bed must be true what they say about them . Hope everyone is doing well and have a good day folks

 

[PattiEvans]

Morning all - plenty of blue sky this morning. Scattered showers forecast, but if it only amounts to the same as yesterday you could more or less ignore them.

5.9 this morning which I am happy with. Lemon chicken with Chinese noodles and stir fry last night. I was surprised that half a packet of lemon sauce was as much as 18g carb + the cornflour to coat the chicken and the noodles, then a fruit platter, so much more carb heavy than I had initially thought it was going to be.

Off to meet some friends in town this afternoon.

@TinaD I do hope you feel better soon. Not nice being under the weather.

@MeeTooTeeTo congratulations yet again. Deffo making a habit of this, much to the envy of the rest of us!

@eggyg that greenhouse is amazing. Well done Mr Eggy.

Have a super Saturday all.

Eternal. Being your own pancreas is like trying to smell the number 7 some (most) days.
Go easy on yourself shooting for an even better A1c than the awesome number you have!

7.4 for me today! Had a massive sleep in but no nap yesterday.

I started deep cleaning my bedroom/office yesterday and more to do today. I found sooo many needle caps down the back and under my desk (which is where I keep my stuff at home). Do they breed? I swear they do.

Hope you all have a fabby weekend x

Apologies! 😳 My posts on here are getting erratic as I just forget so, will post this NOW as I remembered!🙄

I hope you all had a Wonderful Day? 😉

I wake in the 6’s now & just let it slowly rise before I HAVE to eat when it reaches about 8, rising sends it to 9’s & now, in the middle of week 2, on 74 tresiba BS is definitely THAT bit more erratic but, the same NR works, eventually: get these sudden blips back up & then back down again with a sudden bigger drop RIGHT at the tail end of 4 hours of NR to end up where I started; UNLESS I guessed it wrong which I leave to the next meal to add extra NR! My new meals to try out are almost done now & have only to try, off the top of my head of the list of stuff I normally eat regularly or semi regularly, pasta bolognese, next few days, & pasta carbonara, next week? After that, it’s stuff that I don’t really eat much off “once in a blue moon”.

I’ve pretty much given up all protein carb free meals, for now anyway, as it’s just too unpredictable but, in a pretty big surprise & a turnaround from how it used be, I can tolerate cereals now & it’s actually quite good in flattening my graph profile as well as preventing the fast drops I get towards the end of 4 hours after NR: it matches up better with the way I now react to insulin! So, For the first time in 10/15 years I’m now buying & eating Wheetabix: still have about three quarters of a 4 litre Tupperware box of cornflakes left but, that’s more of the usual shaped graph of steep rise in 1st hour coming down after that & last drop at the end so, eating less often until it’s gone; Wheetabix not always FOR breakfast but, almost every day now!

Now, even though it’s only halfway through this week, I’ve gotten my A1c back down to 66 & TIR back up to 50% but, it’ll probably go backwards a bit when I try out pasta bolognese?

Bank Holiday coming up on Monday so, will call DSN on Tuesday to see if 74 Tresiba needs more lowering? Ceiling of 48 NR still working but, more erratically so, don’t if/how it works on less tresiba. Also, still get drops when I’m asleep: expect that now; more confidence in going to sleep a bit higher as I know it drops while I’m asleep!

Almost there!
