Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂 House special 5.2 for me today, after a well-earned lie-in! 🙂

You lazy thing! What were you doing yesterday to make you so tired?🙄
How d'you get on?!🙂
 
Morning 5.8 again today, new game seems to be exactly the same fasting and premeal readings for two days on the trot...wonder what the prize will be? Revving up for a week off work, can't wait :D
 
Good morning all 7.0 for me
Oh dear a week off works no fun if you can't enjoy it!
 
Good morning 4.6 for me after a swig of Lucozade at 4am.
Correction it's just dropped to hypo - 3.3 on Libre and 3.8 on BG machine - completely confused as to why I am needing to cut my basal so much.

Morning folks.🙂 9.0 here. 🙄 Two months ago I needed a snack to get me through the night...now I obviously don't! You live and learn...😛

Ooo, a week off. Whatcha gonna do, Kooks?🙂

Mine does this to me all the time, but I'm led to believe it's not normal! maybe the improved HBA1c is allowing your own insulin reserves to trickle through a bit more? No fun I know, so I hope you manage to sort it out 🙂

To snack or not to snack, that is the question! Ooh I'm planning two cream teas at an Alice in wonderland themed venue, a lunch with friends, some serious TV watching, some house painting, crochet and some screen printing....a birthday celebration or two and some thinking about my future work plans, so not too much..

Thank you KookyCat. For me I think it may be related to the gastroparesis. But very frustrating. I'm so sorry that this happens to you all the time. For me after 44 years I'm certain that I haven't got any insulin reserves, particularly as the odd time the pump cannula has stopped my basal from working my BGS have shot up.

Your plans sound brilliant🙂
 
A bad 8 for me plus a night of nocturnal peeing! Wondering if I have a UTI because I haven't had figures like this for weeks :(

Went down to 7.1 after breakfast...

Not exactly a week off. More like a week 'on'!🙄 Enjoy!😛
 
6.1 today, must be the hailstone yesterday, practically post apocalyptic 😱
 
Hello there.🙂 7.6 for little old me.😛
 
Morning all I'm ashamed as I got a self inflicted 7.7 :(
I know I'm eating too many carbs as I've even gained a few pounds and also know what I've got to do Hate 'confessing' to such bad control Not really been in the zone since Easter!

No guilt and shame here sergeant Rose, just a nod to the slip and onwards and upwards. What you did doesn't matter it's what you're going to do 🙂

Please no need to apologise. Knowing what you can improve is the way to go forward🙂
