Group 7-day waking average?

Good afternoon everyone - 9.4 for me this morning (over my target of 4 - 7)

11.0 - bedtime (within my target of 8 - 12) - couldn't resist eating x2 rich tea biscuits after bedtime test 11.2g cho no QA

11.2 - teatime - had a Chinese - chicken fried rice (57g cho from carbs & cals) & curry sauce (?g cho) - rounded carbs up to 60g cho because was over my target of 4 - 7 - did a split injection 5u before eating & 3u after 1 hour
 
A completely unexplained 14.1:( it was 7.9 before I went to bed. Update I think it must be a cannula failure because it is now 16.5 despite doing a correction over an hour ago. I have now changed the cannula and I've done another correction.

Morning, 5.5 first thing today, but after half hour yoga dvd it's gone down to 4.3!
 
7.0 for me 🙂 I've noticed that my waking levels have crept up in recent months - I used to wake in the 4s and 5s, now 6s and 7s (or higher). Debating whether to go back on the lantus.

I'd noticed from your posts that they were creeping up but didn't want to say anything. I guess you may have to go back onto the lantus if you want to stay in the 5's club but don't see going back on it as being a negative. Big hugs {{{{{Northerner}}}}}
 
4.1 for me this morning.
 
Good morning everyone
Mon 24.02.14
3.7 - this morning (hypo)
- had x4 jelly babies then BG was 5.0

9.5 - bedtime


today 25.02.14
7.5 this morning (a little higher than my target of 4 - 7)

11.3 - bedtime (within my target of 8 - 12)
 
A very nice 6.8 this morning - it has now been similar for 3 out of the last 4 mornings so it is a good level for when I walk Susie and means that I have got rid of the morning hypos🙂
 
Woke up and was 4.4 But not a a good night for me last night .
Went to bed around 10.00 when I was 7.8 and took 17 u Levemir (I've been on this dose for a few weeks now). Woke up at 2am at 3.7, treated it with 3 jelly babies (15gr carbs) then woke up at 6am at 2.9 grrrrr !!!

I always rotate injection sites (ie i usually take my levemir at the top of my thigh but i rotate in that area) but I've recently changed injection sites - I don't know if that's what caused the double hypos ?
 
Morning all, a nice 4.8 today (5.2 yesterday).
 
Good evening everyone - 6.8 - for me this morning (within my target range of 4 - 7)

Morning all 6.2, even after a late night snack to get rid of a hypo.
