Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning everyone

BG 5.0

BP nice and low, consistent now too 109/72
Pulse is critically low at 49 but the doctor/consultant isn't concerned that it gets so low
Oxy is 97% which is good
Energy/feeling just fine too. No aches or pains.

Weight has hit my first intermediate goal 72Kg (lost 100g yesterday ... every little helps). 2 Kg to go to my set goal.

Went for a decent walk yesterday 113 minutes. managed to avoid the rain. Today I'd better get out there and not spoil the progress I am making. At least it's not raining and its not windy.

Lots of keyboard practice today with a formal (?) Practice at the church tonight. Playing tomorrow.

I have been watching some UTube videos about people who ate or drank daft (or mistaken) things and the effect they had on them. Some scary stuff!!! Some sad stuff too.

Sainsburys order being delivered later on this evening.

Have a great day today whatever you are doing

Not the best of days yesterday. I think it was payback for Thursday and playing parent all day to my parents.

Undecided what to do today but fancy getting up to mischief so who knows what will unfold!
 
Morning

6.7 today which is good considering what I ate. Did manage to make my friend a cake for her baby shower afternoon tea, it isn’t really a baby shower but more a chance to get all the ladies together before she has her baby which has been a long and difficult road for her. Still got the scones to bake they are all mixed ready but wanted to bake them fresh this morning.

@ColinUK - thank you for your lovely comment, time to start fixing a coffee date or even a London Spring meet up. Whatever mischief you get up to, I look forward to reading about it.

Hope some of you are seeing the sun, grey and raining in deepest darkest Essex.
 
Good morning! The correct mantissa but the wro0ng fractional part for a HS at 5.0. With FOTF it went to 4.2 then 3,9 so I had a couple of Biscoff with a coffee and now a steady 4.4.

Grey, wet and windy again! 🙂 Although I am not going out if it stops I cannot even have a spin in the car park as the people at Wheelchair Services have replaced my wheels with pneumatic tyres with solid ones that have zero wet grip (the rubber feels more like hard plastic) and I cannot get up the gentle slope out side the building . The reason was they said I had too many punctures but as I rarely go out bear medical appointments I blame the cheapo rubbish inner tubes they use - one had actually perished and another the valve unglued from the inner! I offered to buy puncture proof inner tubes but was told that was not allowed for H&S. Absolutely pathetic!
 
Morning all, 5.4 here, a glass of red wine in the evening keeps the Dawn effect away.
Went out for a ride with a couple of others from the stables yesterday. Five minutes in, we were riding into the teeth of a gale with hail blowing sideways. Next five minutes, we turned the corner, the hail stopped, the sun emerged, and there were larks twittering away above the field. (Luckily we got back to the yard before the next hailstorm)
 
It's a round 5 for me this am. 🙂

7.4 this morning, which isn’t bad considering yesterday I got a reverse unicorn (is that a nrocinu?), I.e. my BG wasn’t in the green in range band on the chart at all😱 Sadly it was above it most of the day! @Gwynn, @ColinUK - I’m expecting a picture of reverse unicorn from one of you :rofl:

Oh well, today’s another day as they say.

Lazy day today with a lovely meal out planned tonight with family and friends to celebrate our retirement.

Take care everyone!
 
At the risk of sounding like a broken record it's another thoroughly wet start to the day here in Berkshire. March continuing where February left off. BBC says February set records for temperature and rainfall, especially down here in the South. I can well believe it.

Feeling better this morning after my IBS flared up yesterday. Had a feeling it was coming on when I turned in Thursday night and I had such an uncomfortable night that my waking reading yesterday was actually taken at 03:56, after I'd got up to make a cuppa and grab a handful of nuts. Got a 5.9 this morning at my usual time.

WhatsApp video call with the family a short while ago. They've arrived safely in Queenstown and will be there for 3 nights before starting their final leg to Christchurch.

@Eternal422 - welcome to the club..!

Enjoy the start to the weekend.

Afternoon all! I’ve just got out of my pit, oh the shame. 5.4 when I woke at 8.40. I did first wake at 6 am with the mother of all neck/head aches. Had some ibuprofen and went back to bed fully expecting to not get back to sleep. But I obviously did, still slight headache so I’ve taken two paracetamol. Lovely morning and I suspect it was frosty as only just over 1c now. Forecast light rain later, it was torrential yesterday afternoon and evening. I can quite believe it’s been the wettest February for many a year. Fingers crossed March goes a wee bit better.

Nothing planned except a bit of cooking. I’ve had a really lazy week and it’s been nice for a change. I’ve hardly left the house, Aldi and the garden is the furthest I’ve been. Today probably won’t be any different!

Have a super Saturday, can’t believe it’s the weekend again!
