Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂, I really do wish I could get at least one night where I actually sleep until the alarm goes off 🙄
Chilly and raining here so good job I'm waiting in on the postie again as really not in the mood lol
Anyways 6.5 for me today
Hope you all have a nice day! :D x
 
Morning all and a 6.3 for me today.
A house alarm somewhere near us has been going off since late afternoon yesterday and it is driving me MAD😡:confused:😡. I really hope the batteries run out soon...
 
Morning all! A cold & crispy morning here with a beautiful sunrise.🙂 A more acceptable 6.0 from my right hand this morning. Not using my left hand anymore. Results too high with that one.:D
 
Morning all, a 9.4 for me today. Off out very soon to do my Copepod memory park run!

I am not speaking to my left hand either or my Codefree for that matter. Just don't like them at all.
I am running out of Accu-Chek strips and I am not going to replace them at the price they are. I will have to start talking to my Codefree again and if it doesn't give me the results I want it will be exiled.🙂

Oh heck. I woke up at around 0430 one morning ages ago to a house alarm going off, blurry eyes, looking out window growling... guess what, it was mine, which I don’t use. Must have had a power cut. Lol.lucky previous owner had left instructions and codes

I really dislike if I have to set alarm at weekends.
 
Well, horrible morning here, so I am skulking in bed with a coffee. 11.1 for me but after meal out last night including pudding and a very quick exit on return home into land, that is not bad.(not saying it’s good) Funny about different fingers and different results, my right hand is usually better, but here is a question, which result do you accept.

Alarms set for 6:40 every morning so I can get up and get injected and get my breakfast, tough trying to fit meals in with other folks eating times so it's the only way I can do it :( x
 
Morning all and a very mixed bag today for everyone!
A better 6.9 for me and now finished the Anti-b’s. How I’d love a week where all health concerns were banished!

Enjoy your show @AJLang on Susie’s Memoriam Day.

It’s my mother in law’s 90th birthday today so going there for cake. Just a very small piece 😛

Never thought of you having to inject earlier.
 
Morning everyone, 5.7 here. Libre showed a LO at 6am, I think I'll assume I was lying on the sensor, I've got this one stupidly placed not quite far round enough, just where it gets most pressure if I'm lying on that arm.

Thank you Amigo. I'm running out of energy now so hope I don't snore during the show :D enjoy your cake and happy birthday to your MIL 🙂
 
A bit late a nice 4.8 for me this morning, followed by a close call while out shopping later in the day dropped to 4.3 with another new to me hypo symptom of feeling muggy.
 
Good Morning All
Welcome to a new day

Codefree say 6.3
At 6.40 am

Have a good day all

The Codefree consistently gives readings between 0.5 to 1.0 mmo/L higher than those of the Accu-Chek taken off the same blood sample.
The Accu-Chek is Roche, German, made in Germany to Germany standards.
The Codefree, Korean made in Korea.
Both have been calibrated.
I find this disturbing to be honest.
Which one to believe?
I would always go with the German because of its pedigree having worked for a German company and know the standards they impose but the strip costs are ridiculous.
Perhaps it’s a case of you get what you pay for.
It would seem that others have had the same experience.
I can only use the Codefree as an indicative guide I think; levels up or down.


May your right hand always be
stretched out in friendship, never in want.

Morning all

A pretty crappy 10.1 today complete with headache. Not very surprising though as had dinner with friends last night and so v much had to guess carb intake.

Have a great Sunday all x
