I think it's just a blip as I haven't done much exercise over the past week, so I'm sure it will be something I can try again when I get my act together 🙂 I have my review coming up in a month and it would be nice to tell the consultant I don't need it any more!
 
Good morning everyone 4.2 for me
 
Haven't been on here much lately...waiting in anticipation for my drs appointment tomorrow :( I ran out of test strips too, but I got some more yesterday.
Woke up this morning...15.6 😱

So glad I finally get to see my dr tomorrow!

Can you think of anything you did differently on the evening/night before the Monday 5.6? Or the 7.2? Do you test on waking or after you've been up for a bit?

I know, it's like if I drop below a certain level then I'm back to where I was. Hard to keep motivated in this awful weather though - thought we'd turned a corner back in March with all that warmth and sunshine, now it's more like winter :(
 
I can't remember anything from last Sunday night. But on Wednesday night I might have gone out and got a little bit drunk.... Oops!
I need to write them down. For some reason I find that really hard? Then I would be able to see a pattern.

Your meter should keep them in memory and you can usually get some free software to upload them to your computer and analyze them 🙂 What meter do you use? If you are struggling with control it's worth applying yourself to keeping a food diary and recording everything you can think of so you can start to spot patterns rather than relying on memory 🙂

I think most of them will keep the last 500 tests, so hopefully that's not what you get through in a few days 😱 😉 :D
 
We were camping the last couple of days, my meter said it was too cold to test!!! Brrrr!

Brrr, indeed! 😱 they usually start working again if you put them in your pocket or under your arm for a while. It must have been perishing camping in that!
