Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. Bright sunny day. Have the arrival of the nieces (7 and 4) today for the weekend. We had the nephews and a niece last weekend I’m already shattered!!!

4.6 according to sensor and 6.2 with finger prick. New sensor at 10pm last night started me at 3.8 (6.2) and had been around 1.5-2 out ever since. I have a spare may change and give Abbott a ring on Monday. Haven’t had a dodgy one for ages! Never mind

Have a fab weekend all.
 
Good morning all. Just ‘woken’ after a very restless night. First morning on low dose insulin and a 5.4. Excellent.
 
Good morning 🙂

Bubbles was a hero and champ yesterday and didn’t mind snuggling up with his mum to make sure she was ok, few tears but he didn’t mind those, suppose I was even worse due to at least 4 folk on my facebook announced they were expecting :(


Also decided to get back on the cross trainer/exercise bike yesterday afternoon, really trying to look after myself (not that I have ever stopped obviously) but aiming on doing a mile everyday to begin with and see how that effects the insulin situation etc


Anyways it’s a 5.0 FP vs 4.8 scan for me this morning, my dad was correct although it wasn’t him that delivered it, sensor arrived at 3 yesterday afternoon and the driver was quite a good looking nice young chap, goes to me are you Davie’s bairn, well yes but I’m 27 so not a bairn anymore lol


Not sure if we’re going to Lidl’s and a wee wander today or tomorrow yet but think it may be tomorrow as I'm not in the mood for much

Very misty here atm

Hope you all have a lovely day! 🙂

Morning all, 8.2 for me today. It was a year ago today that I left TfL. What a year it's been.
 
Morning all and a HS for me.

Must try and get out in the garden once shopping done as the warm wet weather has made everything explode. But first stop pharmacy, let's see how many visits it takes to get the full order.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning all. 🙂 10.2 here....obviously 9 units of Tresiba isn't enough! 🙄

Well, it's fiesta time here in Spain. The only problem I have today is... which one to go to? I think it'll have to be the local Celtic music fezzie and Medieval market. They should call it Bagpipes at the Beach cos the main stage is, you guessed it, on the beach... hope they've checked the tides! :D

Congratulations on the HS! 🙂 You've just reminded me that the garden waste collection is on Monday, so I'd better get cracking on all that work I promised myself I'd do a fortnight ago but never got round to! 😱
 
Beautiful sunny day, not so sunny reading of 8.1. My bg’s are definitely rising since stopping Metformin. Have had 9.8, 8.8, 6.8 and 7.3 so definitely higher, I was getting mainly in the 5s before.
Received the forms etc for having the cpeptide and GAD tests done, my surgery have never heard of them or done them so are having to ring the diabetes care team to find out what to do and where to send, I’m amazed but there you go, I suppose they are normally done in secondary care.
Have a swollen foot at the moment and no idea why but that won’t stop me car booting tomorrow.
Have a lovely weekend everyone and hope you all keep well. Good luck with starting insulin @merrymunky xx
 
5.8 and a nasty stomach bug for me this morning. I won't be straying too far from the loo for a while I should think - best to let it run its course. 😱😛:D

Have a good day everybody and as young Mr Grace might say "You've all done very well!"

Good morning team🙂

Like a lot of us, I was aiming for an HS. Like Northie, I was trundling along at the lowish part of the range, woke up at 7.30 (middle of the night for me, that) on 4.3. So I thought I could blag an HS by eating a Jelly Baby.

Woke up on 5.4. Best laid plans...:D

Anyway, busy day ahead. An Amazon delivery is due to occur any minute, Tesco will arrive to restock the freezer late morning, then it’s off to Ewood Park for abusing the linesman, usually for blocking my view.🙄

Pleasant weather, high cloud and quite bright. Good day for footie, and seeing my wheelchair mates. 🙂

Have a good day, folks, and a dry one if you live in Whaley Bridge.🙂
 
Good morning 8.4 and rising, didn`t make the hospital yesterday bus broke down.🙄 Managed to phone them and cancelled the appointment, no problem. Very overcast today temperature down to 23.C, off to Folkstone on Monday for 5 days and maybe over to France or Belgium for a Day.🙂 I`ll take the tabet with me to see if I can keep in touch.😎

Congrats on HS @khskel.🙂

What insulin are on @merrymunky?

@MeeTooTeeTwo, hope that bug clears up soon, {{HUGS}}}.

Enjoy your day folks, the circus is setting up on the green, may take a walk over to see if I can get some free tickets for the kids.🙂

At the moment 4 units of insulatard at bedtime. Looks like a thermostat!

Hello peeps!
11.7 for me, not good! 11.9 yesterday and a 10.4 the day before that :( I've had some stress this week and have also felt sick everyday, so may possibly be that that's raising my level in the morning. During the day, my level goes down nicely, I'm just having this raise in the morning??
