6.3 for me this morning. Had a breakfast of spinach tomatoes and halloumi and a lunch of quinoa salad at Wetherspoons. Two hours later it shows 11.3. Where am I going wrong. Very frustrating.
 
Tickle Me 6.3. Great day, broke the back of a monster job, now.....relax, easy days for a while 🙂

Yep, it's a mystery sometimes. Just gotta keep soldiering and doing the right thing.

That is frustrating! There is rice in the quinoa salad, which might be getting into your blood quickly ( it's 40g carb altogether, if I've got the right dish, I googled it recently because I was going to a 'spoons) But what were you just before lunch? Before we assume it was the quinoa salad, if you'd risen to 8-9 by lunchtime for some reason, then a further rise to 11.3 for lunch isn't bad. If it's a dish you eat regularly, have you tried testing before and after, so you've got the full picture? Do you test before lunch regularly, so you know if you're usually within range before lunch? Sorry for all the questions, rather than solutions, but the more you know about your usual glucose patterns, the easier it is to spot trends.
 
Good morning. 8.0 for me. Can’t be bothered today, but better get a boogie on
 
Think I forgot to say on Monday. Cards all safe in my piecey bag on my desk. All that stress for nowt. Silly numpty.
 
Morning all, a 9.1 for me today and just 12 actual working days left for me (I'm not counting weekends)!
 
Morning - a 5.8 for me.

A miracle - I'm cured! (j/k)

Good morning 🙂 It's a whopper today 10.8.

My cgm sensor gave up 3 days early last night so I went to bed without it .i had a few extra carbs to see me through the night - that part worked too well! Insulin time 🙂

Better safe than sorry with those carbs @Flower 🙂 Hope your new sensor goes the distance this time! 🙂

It's the first sensor in about a year that has failed, they are usually so reliable It's scary how much reliance I put on the cgm for getting me safely through the night when I don't have hypo awareness.

I hope your sensor stops itching and soon! 🙂

Morning all, 7.3 here. Back to finger jabbing, that was a quick two weeks of Libre, time flies when you're having fun!

The two weeks fly by don’t they. I’m sure time speeds up when I apply a new sensor

I agree with Northener, it’s better to be safe than sorry. I hope your new one lasts the distance.
 
Good morning everyone. Hope everyone has a good day.
It was a cooler day yesterday , it looks like being the same today. I am so glad I live so close to the sea it really does help.
