Group 7-day waking average?

06:17 BS 5.2. Whoo hoo! :D My 3rd. HS: no where near as many as @Hazel 😉

What a tremendous day of golf it was yesterday: real; & virtual! 😛 Irish man Shane Lowry hit an -8 round to add to his lead: 4 shots ahead of the field; total of -16 for the championship heading into the final round today. There’s VERY windy conditions today so, an earlier start at 07:30 this morning! :D😎😱

I scored 1 better than my qualifying round of -9 with -10 for 9 holes in the final round that finishes at 07:45: currently at 18 spot: was at 16 when I finished & only slipped 2 places. Will see where I finish & get my medal at 8am. :D😛😎

My right neck has fully calmed down so, resumed the overhead arms stretch, no weight, yesterday & it feels fine. See how it goes before adding a can of beans, for weight & strength, later. 🙂

An early Good Morning to you all!😉 Have an easy, lazy Sunday! 😉 More golf for me today: the last day of The Open; miss it when it’s over! 😛:(

I’m SO proud that this little country, where I live, of only 1.5 million people, quite a lot golf mad like me too, were hosts on the world stage & shown our spectacular little corner of the world to people all around the world! 😛:D😎 & a bursting with pride, about to explode, emoji! 😱:D😛
 
Ache after yesterday’s golf going for a game of golf again this morning to double up on the aches.

Reporting a 10.9 this morning

Happy Sunday folks
 
Good morning 🙂

4.4 for me this morning, really don't have a clue what is going on as there is no pattern whatsoever 🙄

@Flower I never did like pizza (think I'm the only one round here like that though) so thankfully never tried the pizza challenge lol

Bruce bought me a present that arrived yesterday, a beautiful new RTA for my vape, I know not many vape here and the ones who do just use regular stock coil tanks generally but I got one of these off a lad in a vaping group for free and fell in love with it so Bruce got me another one, will have to wait till Tuesday to get a build in it and wick it though 🙄

Received confirmation yesterday that my bra's have been dispatched too and estimated delivery is Wednesday

Hope you all have a fantastic day! :D

Morning all on a nice morning, so far. Another high 6.9. The BBC have promised that it won’t rain until this evening so we’re going to walk down to an antiques fair to see if anything takes my fancy. Better hadn't look at cabinets or a Chippendale chairs as we’re walking! A nice bit of china will do. Have a smashing Sunday. 🙂
@Kaylz I don’t like pizza neither, it’s a bit of bread with tomato sauce and cheese on! I thought I was the only person in the world who was a pizza hater, along with baked beans! 😱
 
@eggyg precisely I'm sure other kids at party's thought I was weird for not liking pizza when we were kids! baked beans I used to love though, tea on a Saturday with my grandad used to be a couple of bits of black pudding, couple of bits of slicey, fried egg and beans, yum! :D haven't had it since I was diagnosed though lol xx
 
Another late check-in for me.
5.3

Been humming ELO's Mister Blue Sky since I got up. Dunno why - it's blooming grey and miserable ATM

Hope it's better where you are.

Somewhat surprisingly, using the Libre, I have noticed that baked beans on toast have a very benign effect on my blood sugar levels - they creep up to around 8.5 then creep back down again, totally against my intuition all these years! 🙄 I do like pizza, especially pepperoni, but it's just too massive a carb hit for me, as I have to eat the whole family-sized thing. I seem to remember @Mark Parrott posted a low-carb recipe that was very well-received, will have to look it up 🙂

Here it is 🙂

Interesting, do you bolus for the total amount of carbs in the beans? I've read conflicting advice regarding bolusing for them that's part of the reason I haven't yet tried them and its simple things like that I really miss

I don't know what it is about pizza it's just not for me, I mean when I went to darts with Bruce and I'd had a drink if there was pizza at half time I was game for a few slices but much preferred if there was pie and beans or a munchie box etc on the go, pepporoni I'm not fond of either but put salami in front of me and I'm as happy as a pig in mud :D

Good morning 5.9 on a cloudy day,🙄 I`m another one who doesn`t like pizza but pepperoni & salami, lovely.🙂

Congratulations @Lanny on HS and golf medal.🙂

Good recovery @Hazel.😎
Soon be that time folks,

enjoy your day.🙂 (Hic):D
 
Well, I had a late night (no alcohol involved) and woke up at 7.41 to a 9.1 reading, but felt really rough so I didn't touch the floor and went back to sleep. Woke up the next time to a better reading of 7.2 which I was happier to start my day with but was horrified to see that it was after 11am! I am claiming the second reading as my fasting reading for today though. Need to do better today with my eating as I didn't have a proper meal at all yesterday, just grazed on mostly low carb stuff like olives and cheese and a little fruit... ie half an apple and some blackcurrants from the garden and a few cherries.
@Lanny Well done with your golf and HS. Woo Hoo!!
@Kaylz I thought that was a bottle of perfume!!! Especially with the name "Siren"
@eggyg If you are buying china at the antiques fair try not to have a "smashing Sunday" yourself! Have fun!
@Grannylorraine You are an inspiration. Just a 1km run would knacker me for the rest of the day but feel challenged/motivated by you to go out and do it. I am sooo not a runner and living at the bottom of a steep valley, the initial slog is daunting. Tell me that 13k is all on the flat... please!!
