Group 7-day waking average?

My strips have come yay, so I'll measure tomorrow. Not that I want to know really... :(
 
Morning, 5.9 on waking. Meant to get up at 4 to catch train to York at 6, woke at 2 and couldn't get back to sleep, maybe nagging doubt that will sleep thru alarm, must be lurking in back of mind somewhere. Overnight stay back tomorrow afternoon, looking forward to see city at Christmas, expect it will be busy.

Made into the 5s this morning with a 5.9, but somehow I only have 2 days left of my canagliflozin, but 10 days left of all my other meds, no idea how that has worked out, oh well lets hope my electronic prsecription works quickly, otherwise I will be seeing for a couple of days what my bloods are like using only Metformin.

Safe journey
 
Good morning folks my Libre scan wants me to believe 3.8 but I know better 🙂. It’s settled down to being 1.0 below a finger bodge . It also wants me to believe I’ve been skimming the red zone all night, yer right lol.
Perhaps it just wants me stab my fingers, well I’m not going to ,so there 😛:D.

I hope you all have a good day
 
another reading from the 6 range for me this morning a 6.7 this time
 
Morning Folks

Reporting a reading of 11.2 for this morning - the bad stomach cramps may be due to that read.

of course I never tested during cramps I always remember I should have tested after the event. One day I will get it right.

Jack Frost is here today
 
Good morning

Well was taken early at the job centre but out late due to my current advisor being a chatty one, when he was finished and said right that’s you Kayleigh I tried to make a dash out of the place but got the call of come here Kayleigh from him, I didn’t escape the hug! Lol, my mum told me last year that she’d gotten a hug from him (he wasn’t my advisor then) so I tried to avoid it but hey its not that I don’t do hugs but it did feel odd hugging a member of the job centre staff! He is a very lovely gentleman though so not all that bad haha

Anyways its a 5.7 for me this morning, had a digestive biscuit for a 6.1 last night as I'd been out yesterday, like @Ljc my sensor says I was down at 3 through the night but mines is also 1mmol-1.5mmol out, it finishes tomorrow though , was getting very worried last night, lights were flickering for about half an hour and there were 26 postcodes in my town affected by a power cut, that's all I would've needed 🙄 we are on the priority list with me having Type 1 though

So here's the new cooker

Have a nice day folks

Hello on this frosty morning. A 6.4 for me today, I had an almost unbroken night's sleep, no silly seasonal/ wedding insomnia, thank goodness. Back feeling good, did some ironing yesterday and wrapped some presents, with the help of the codeine and paracetamols. Not ready to ditch them yet though. Very busy day, waxing, cut and colour, nails, babysitting amongst all this, swapped with other grandma so we can have Friday free to sort out wedding venue, and present delivering. Phew! Going to have lunch out in between all the appointments so that’ll be nice, it’s finding somewhere pushchair friendly that’s the problem. Well folks, have a wonderful Wednesday in preparation for next Wednesday being even more wonderful! 🙂
 
5.9 this am. 🙂
Alexa informs me that Christmas is in 573137 seconds. 😱 🙄
Have a great Wednesday, everybody

A self inflicted 6.9 this morning after eating my emotions (I ate a bar of chocolate), I still don't know why I do this, as I know my sugars will be high, I will feel like I have a hangover, and it will upset my stomach. But too late now I have done it.

Tomorrows another day, onwards and downwards if you catch my drift lol, hope you start to feel better soon xx
 
Good morning folks - 6.0 this morning.

Yesterday I was at the dentist who told me I have very good gums and teeth for a diabetic ! ..... So I am thinking if I was a horse I could fetch a good price :D he he

Today I am doing some xmas preparation which involes having a Reiki session, sooooo looking forward to that :D

Have a great day everyone.

Keep on with all achievements 🙂

@Rob51 hope your levels reduce down into the 5s or 6s later today. Take good care x
 
According to my Xpert book, it says;

Fasting blood glucose (mmol) below 5.6 is normal, 5.6 to 6.9 is prediabetes, 7.0 or above is diabetes

Thank you Kaylz, I am certainly feeling it today, feel very weepy which is obviously an effect of the chocolate, you would have thought I would have learned by now. Not only does sugar affect my diabetes, it affects my mood and depression. But thank you for your support.
 
Good morning folks 5.5
 
Good morning. Up at silly o’clock again. 6.4 today. Had a good day yesterday, fuelled by painkillers I got through all my appointments without too much pain. I felt relatively normal. Going to wedding venue today to set up some bits and pieces, favours, table plan etc, shouldn’t take long, then back tomorrow to meet florist who is bringing the flowers for the tables. Not long now! 😱 Have a good day. 🙂
