Group 7-day waking average?

Ditto said:
Last on parade no doubt, as usual. 6.7 @ 2.50am insomnia, then lie in and 7.3 @ 12.38pm.

Just had near a full bag of steamed Jerseys and gone up to 10.1 grr agh, why am I so greedy? How many Jerseys would you say was a normal portion? :(

Don’t beat yourself up @Ditto, your levels are normally lower than mine and that’s with me only having two potatoes (four halves). Your biggest critic is yourself. Do your best and accept any failings, you are normal
xx
 
Thank you, that's very kind, but I am just a pig. It is not normal to eat nearly a full bag of Jerseys, I only gave Mum a normal portion, why can't I just save some for tomorrow? I also had a full bag of sprouts! I did save some of those for breakfast and patted myself on the back. I'm just naturally greedy. I sure would have survived in the stone age, I'd have been first with my spear at a mammoth. 🙄

Haha, thing is I would have been dead!!
 
Morning. 6.7 at 4.30am not bad. ☺️
 
Good morning 🙂 4.8 for me today, and the flattest of flatfishes overnight 😱 🙂 Always intriguing to see how the Libre shows me diving for the bottom as son as my head hits the pillow at night, looks like I briefly disturbed the seabed for a moment 😱

Morning Folks

Reporting a reading of 8.4 this morning

Got a DSN telephone review this afternoon if she is available so be interesting to see what happens next
 
Morning all 🙂, its a 4.7 today 🙂.
 
Goooood morning.🙂 5.1 here.😛

I like Tuesdays...knitting, then a 3-hour Welsh class...then a sneaky cake n coffee on the way home, hehe.😱:D
 
Good morning folks . It’s dry here 😱 I don’t know for how much longer though.
I think my Libre is complaining is about being laid on all night .
3.4 scan with 5.3 finger. , ten mins later 3.5 scan 🙄
 
Good morning

Looking quite dull outside as light is breaking, looks chilly as well and I'm off out in an hour, sweatshirt already on, hat and gloves sat out ready 🙄

5.7 both prick and scan for me today

Have a nice day folks
xx
 
Morning folks, sunny but chilly here in Sussex. Drs appt in an hour so need to get my skates on. My cold has decided to revisit me, drat!! Shoulder still hurting and still off work but definitely improving, hoping to het back to work next week 😉😉 6.5 for me this morning 🙂. Have a good day all 🙄🙄 x
 
I had my first ever diabetic eye screening a couple of weeks ago (Incidentally, the only opportunity I’d had this year to wear my cool shades). 😎
I got the results yesterday with the wonderful line “Your test results show that you have no diabetic retinopathy.” :D

What an enormous relief!!
Dez (humming "Oh what a beautiful morning" despite it being dull and grey outside.)🙄

Oh and 5.6 on the dial.

Sometime diabetes just makes you want to spit doesn’t it.

I hope you haven’t got the hypo hangover.

Yes very frustrating but pleased to report I was a lovely 5.7 before dinner last night so I obviously treated the hypo a lot better than the hyper correction earlier. I seem to be quite lucky with hypos in that I respond very well to treatment and I can actually work though them now that I don't panic about them..... they usually happen when I am busy at the stables and as long as I take it steady I can continue to chug along with chores whilst it is coming back up. I always check that it is heading in the right direction after 10-15 mins though and thankfully I haven't had a hangover so far.

Signing in with a reasonable 7.4 this morning. I made a plan last night that I wouldn't bolus this morning if I was in or near range, because I knew I was going to be active (and I had a couple of glasses of red last night) and I was just going to grab a 1Carb Portion Nature Valley Protein Bar for breakfast, so we will see how my levels are later.

@Rob51 Good luck with your appt. Hope they are supportive and you find it informative and helpful.

Good morning it’s a 6.1 which I’ll happily take.

On bus to town to prove disability as stupidly lost my travel pass, broken leg in tow! 🙄

Have a stable day if you possibly can. It’s lashing it down here, where is this sunny day @eggyg ? 😉 Can you send it SW soonest please🙂

Oh way up north, too far to send down! It was a beautiful day but normal service is resumed today! Grey and damp! :(
 
Very late ( for me) today. I had a lie in! All that travelling catching up with me. A 6.7 today which I’m chuffed about as I was 8.2 at 11pm last night after a homemade chicken, ham and leek pie. Thought I’d bolused correctly but obviously not. Never mind, it all came out in the wash! Our Poppy’s 7th birthday today so an exhilarating evening of tenpin bowling and Brewers Fayre. Ummm...yummy! 😉 The things you have to do for the family, and no doubt we will be picking up the bill! Only joking, love it when we all get together. Probably have a headache when I get home though! Have a terrific Tuesday everyone. 🙂
