Good morning, 8-5 when I got up, been at work since 6-30, nothing to eat or drink and now it's 15-6 I surpose its that sugar dumping time....

Most likely Pete :( Perhaps have a slice of ham or something, that might satisfy the liver that you're not starving so it can stop trying to 'help'! Hope things improve as the day progresses 🙂 Anyone ordered their turkey yet?

Yes mate orders starting to come in but the weather being so mild I don't think people realise how close it is....
 
Hi last posted on 15/11 so here goes for the last few days

16/11
16.9 on waking
- bedtime - 2301pm - 12.8
- teatime - 1844pm - 15.8

17/11
11.1 on waking
- bedtime - no test
- teatime - 1910pm - 15.5

18/11 (this morning)
5.3 on waking
- bedtime - 2322pm - 6.3
- felt hungry at bedtime so ate 2 bread rolls 48g carbs with sliced ham on & did 2 units bolus - meter had advised 3.5 units though
- teatime - 2027 - 7.7

feel as though I'm slipping a little with:
- bedtime testing
- fasting or waking testing
- having the odd snack here & there during the evening without blousing!

It seems to be! Quite remarkable for a T1 with no basal! 🙂 Can't imagine how I went on with 20 lantus in me 😱 That's a 4.7 three days on the trot!

You should get a prize if you hit 4 days on the trot! I dream that one day I won't need the Lantus, no such luck for me that evil beautiful Lantus is mine for life 🙄

Well, I was on it for nearly 3 years, so who knows? Maybe you will be T1W (Type 1 Weird) like me one day? 🙂
 
Good morning all and good readings I'm afraid I fell by the wayside during my night shift and found myself diving into the celebrations tin more than once! So a non fasting 7.8 this morning (hanging my head in shame) However I'm lucky it wasn't higher so will go to bed and hope it's down by next test Good night

Well, that's not bad at all, considering - I bet a few months ago you would have been much higher! 🙂 We're all only human, and if we didn't have the occasional lapse then we'd go barmy, so don't beat yourself up! 🙂
 
Morning all.🙂 5.2 here.😛
 
Good morning 4.2 after some Lucozade at 3am.
 
Hi all, 6.5 this morning.
 
Morning 5.8 today 🙂
