Group 7-day waking average?

Is there a word for hypo in Welsh @Bloden ?

Good question! Apparently (according to online dictionaries) it’s...wait for it...hypo...🙄 but (I’m guessing) with the stress on the penultimate syllable, it being Welsh - HYpo.


Morning all.🙂 5.5 here.😛
 
Morning pals🙂

Well, smug central here. I woke with 7.2, but interestingly that is around the same I went to bed with, 7.4. It’s also the similar to before and after last nights cottage pie with barely a post meal blip.😎

Don’t often get everything as neat as that, because of my unpredictable body, which is why I mention it.🙄

Anyway, last beautiful warm day of the year, so I’ll charge up the wheelchair and trundle down into the village to stock up at the butchers🙂

Enjoy the day folks, and batten down the hatches for the weekend🙂
 
Good morning 7.6 on another beautiful morning. A 3.8 yesterday spent the day in Brixham Devon, whole sea bass and salad for lunch very nice🙂. At the hospital early tomorrow for planned skin surgery, Dermatology dept. name of specialist Mr. D. Dermatology :D could not make it up.

Enjoy your day temp just crept up to 22.C 🙂.

He couldn’t really have gone into any other profession could he? We used to laugh when Mr Eggy got his pension statements always signed by Mr D’Eath! 😱
 
Up at the crack today, been awake on and off all night with back pain. In hindsight perhaps a 6 mile walk yesterday wasn’t a good idea! Albeit a flat and very slow one! So at 5.45 BG was 5.3 and I was starving, just had 2 slices of Burgen toasted with Whole Earth crunchy peanut butter. Will need my lunch by 10! Babysitting day today, Mr Eggy will have to do the lifting. Soft play first thing, lunch, sleep ( baby, not me, although I may join her) and back to mummy at 2.30. Had my new oven wired up yesterday so looking forward to reading the very thick instruction booklet. Have a good day whatever you are up to. 🙂
 
Good morning.bit fed up just now, BG consistently in mid to high teens. Weight only down another two pounds over the month, but wrong direction. See dietitian on Friday and nurse to phone for catch up. See what advice food diary brings. So busy yesterday forgot to eat snacks, so by night time, quite hungry. Och this diabetes malarkey is a bu&&#r. Tired and looking forward to my holiday next week.

Oh Carol ( I sang that in a Neil Sedaka voice) c**p eh? Hopefully they will sort you out sooner rather than later. Are you going away next week? We’re off to Spain the week after with the kids, hopefully my back will be sorted by then, off to my brilliant osteopath on Tuesday. Whatever you do have a great time and have a holiday from the old D! Xx

“I am but a fooool “ te he. So do I Elaine, I am tired of it all, and probably get diet advice, but whatever I am doing and meds are doing it’s no working. Maybe not as well as I think I am. This working business is busy as well.
No, not going away, helping son to pack for house move,marigolds here I come., meeting family, sleep and unwind and get garden sorted for winter-sounds restful....not. Hope you have a lovely holiday and your back is better.
 
Morning all. Shot up to 14.7 at bedtime so conservative correction and a horizontal 5.5 this morning and 7.7/6.4 post cat feeding and fussing depending on which finger you believe.

Not sure if ratios have suddenly changed again or I'm coming down with something.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Good morning everyone. Very pleased with my 6.9 after trying to work out correction amounts after my new cannula caused problems, including ketones yesterday evening.
 
Morning all.🙂 4.3 here.😛

Lovely yesterday...let’s see what today brings!🙄
 
Morning all, 4.7 here, but another excursion into red in the night. Silly me, I forgot and did my previous amount of basal last night, not what I just lowered it to!
Glorious here yesterday, 'here' being a mini break. Went to English Heritage gardens at Wrest Park yesterday, beautiful in the sunshine.

Morning all! 5.4 this morning on a beautiful blossomy spring day.
 
Morning folks🙂

Bit cloudy today, winding up for tomorrow’s gales. Not proper Inner Hebrides gales, the sort I am used to where you can’t even walk upright, and the rain comes sideways, but should be fun. The weather in West Scotland accounts for the Scottish Vernacular house design, the one and a half storey design with smaller windows that you might expect. It’s more aerodynamic. You see it in Fife, too, because of those cold winds coming over from the Urals, which I remember well from Uni.

Right, that’s the architecture lesson.🙄

Back on topic, I woke with 5.2, and no Dawn effect. Currently 5.6. So basal fiddling does work🙂

By the way, why is the huge hurricane that’s trashing Florida and Georgia called Michael? 😡

Hope Trump’s holiday home gets ruined. It might convince him that these stronger storms are due to the sea getting warmer. He’s completely backtracked on Obama’s environment protection laws, and installed the ex head of a coal support organisation as head of the Environment Protection Agency. :confused:
 
11:46 BS 8.6. At last, BS coming down! Reduced my Lunch & Dinner doses yesterday so, a bit up & down that settled nicely & no hypos! Which has helped with the waking figure?🙄

Yesterday was a REALLY nice day, bright & sunny!🙂 And so far, it looks the same today!🙂

Already had 16 units Novorapid, cautious reduction which might be too precipitous, but, I’ll try it & see. Just off to cook breakfast! Have a good day all! The weather matches how I feel today: Sunny inside AND outside!:D😛😎
