Group 7-day waking average?

7.1 this morning and still running high. Apparently I have Bronchitis. I'm certainly all stuffed up and coughing well.
 
Morning all 6.7 for me, have had a stinking cold for 2 days now although its getting better thankfully

. I used to have a slice of toast with peanut butter as a bedtime snack as this would produce less of a spike than biscuits and keep my levels steadier overnight. 🙂

I'm going to try the peanut butter but for me it will have to be the smooth one with no bits in

Not a good night, or a good day either so far. Hit a slump in the early hours with a 2.1 and then bounced to 16.8, I think I overdid the toast and jam thing. Feeling like something the cat dragged in as the chest infection/Bronchitis is making itself felt too. Somebody shoot me now please.

Very sorry to hear this Alison, that's a nasty swing to have to endure when you're already ill :( Hope it all passes quickly and you can get back to those 5.6s! 🙂
 
5.3 this morning 🙂

That's fine, it's the fat in the PB that helps slow the release of carbs from the toast 🙂

I *love* peanut butter but the surgery told me not to have it - think I'll buy myself some Whole Earth Crunchy...yum yum 🙂

It's high calorie, but apart from that I don't think it has any other downside, so not sure why they would tell you that! The fat is even a 'good' fat! 🙂 Whole Earth is a good brand as it doesn't contain any sugar/additives, I believe! 🙂
 
Now I've finally shaken off the lurgy that's been playing havoc with my levels for the last 2 weeks, I'm joining in. 🙂

I had a welcome return to 6.0 this morning and I hope I can soon see another below 6 reading - I've had one once!
