Group 7-day waking average?

Well, I 've had two boiled eggs & some mushrooms fried in virgin olive oil & some butter.
Had a cup of black decaff tea aswell.
I haven't taken my usual metformin & the reading two hours later is 6.8
I was 5.4 an hour before eating the above & only 6.8 two hours later (without Metformin) & I don't feel as weak yet.
I am going out for a walk now for around half an hour, so going to take a flapjack with me & my meter just in case I go low.

I love your avatar pic, GG. Always makes me smile...😛

Morning folks.🙂 4.9 here.:D

It's official, this Asturian summer is going to give us a bit of everything weather-wise. If you're heading this way remember to pack: bikini, pac-a-mac and flip-flops that transform into wellies at the flick of a switch.😱🙄
 
Good morning 🙂 5.6 to start the new week, I hope it treats you nicely 🙂

Off to see Mr retina surgeon today to discuss eye operation, 4 hours of staring at an out of focus wall then looking through a slit lamp - up, down, left, right! Pretty terrified, I'd rather stick pins in myself - oh hang on- I already do!😉:confused:
