Group 7-day waking average?

A 6.9 for me this morning.

Was furious last night after being sold ‘low sugar’ draft lemonade in our regular haunt and finding I was 8.8 when I got home! Nothing else to explain it.
We know the server and she was genuinely convinced it’s low sugar but I’ve never had levels like this after a night out.
 
Aye, Amigo. I never drink draft soft drinks. If I can’t see the bottle, I don’t trust them. Mind you, if it had been full fat you’d have been higher, I would have thought. Oh well, not to worry. Today’s another day.🙂

Anyway, I recovered consciousness with 4.9. Good enough, I suppose. Flat line all night, too.😎

I never drink draft either Mike but I was sick of Diet Coke (the only other low sugar bottles they do). The barmaid who served us is diabetic herself so I doubt she’d have done it deliberately.

Onwards and downwards 🙂
 
Afternoon all, late posting but I was at 9.4 this morning. Off to see Kim Wilde in concert tonight. Should be good.

I simply love this Accu_Chek meter lol The Codefree gave a 5.8 it is in the bad books lol
The same happened last year when I was here and it was warm weather using Accu-Chek. I had a run of 5.2's
 
Good morning everyone. No Easter egg for me today, I decided to be good for a change :D🙄.
Woke to a much better 5.7 after a wee correction for a 9.7 with a straight up arrow last night all due to forgetting to bolus for my very late dinner.

This bug or whatever it is I’ve got is odd ,symptoms come and go I start to lose my voice, runny nose , chills, feel as though I’m going down with flu etc, then they clear up only to do several repeats through the day.
BGs are settling down though, so it looks like my body is winning the battle 🙂.
I’m going back under the duvet as it looks so inviting .
See you later
