Group 7-day waking average?

Had to post a parcel yesterday. Our local sub Post Office is in a One Stop Shop and they had a notice on the door saying customers were restricted to buying only one of anything. Shelves well stocked and they even had loads of loo roll. They are less than a mile from our stripped-bare Sainsbury's......

Well we tried Tesco, Aldi and Savers in 1 town, no bog roll, Asda in another none, Semichem in ours none, mum's away up to the chemist to collect prescriptions so she's going to pop into Lidl and see if there's any, our local shop that has a post office in has none either as they posted on Facebook through the week they were well stocked so everybody flocked in leaving the local and regular customers without, its getting terrible trying to get anything anywhere :( xx
 
5.1 for me today - A lowest ever!
Seem to be getting much better results since isolation began. - There must have been mush more 'social' eating going on than I realized.
Sun is shining although still very cold, but should be able to get some gardening done.
 
Morning all a 4.9 today.
Lovely and sunny here but crisp and cold. Better start this having a walk in the fresh air every day lark before vegging with a book.
Have a good weekend all
 
G'day all. Perished when I was out earlier brrr, definitely gloves weather. Lovely though.

Gutted last night. There were Iceland slots but I don't have any money until Tuesday. Could have cried with frustration. I think the slots were just for us ol' bids which is very good of them.

Forgot to say...7.6 :D

Not sure where you heard the wiping thing
Not sure now Kaylz but I only watch official stuff, Beeb Sky 1 Channel 4 and Panorama unless I've read something daft online.

Not sure if these quotes will work, I don't have the facility for quotes! Long time since I did html. :D

Great to hear that you are getting better results and congrats on your HS the other day. Do you have a sedentary job? Is it possible that you are a bit more active with being at home? ... just a thought.
Nice when you can find something positive in this sad situation.
 
Hi folks very late today been to Lidl,🙄 trying to be sensible and just buy enough for a couple of days which is normal for me.🙂 I did get lost on the way because all the pubs were shut,😱:D anyway 5.5 this morning so a 🙂 on my face, the sea has a very large menagerie of white horses so I hope @Robin & @rebrascora can give me a bit of advice how to muck out without getting a hypo😳o_O and wet.😎 Got home to my council tax bill gone up another 4.1%😡 aint seen a copper for ages, mind you its worth it If for only the NHS.

Take care my friends hope you can all cope with this situation where ever you are, thinking of you all stay safe.🙂
 
@KARNAK
Ted, you just enjoy watching those white horses and leave the mucking out for someone who doesn't collapse at the feet of passing nurses..... they have plenty of other work to do at the mo.

Rather wish my mucking our duties would take my BG down more dramatically, as it is being stubbornly high again at the moment despite a further increase in Levemir..... really starting to worry about how I am having to steadily increase it every week or so. Still got this cough though so maybe some infection lurking.
 
thanks @wirralass I'm not sure where I'm meant to be, but the last one in 2015 that I can see on my Dr's record was 5.3 % and 34mmol
*That's an excellent HbA1c number Baz. That means you no longer have Diabetes ~ or in other words, your Diabetes is in remission. Have you not been tested since 2015? I'm usually tested annually like other people with Diabetes. Might be worth a consult with your GP to request an appointment with Dracula if that's possible during these uncertain times? The result will let you see how well you're doing or not! You current numbers aren't too shappy Baz so keep doing what you are doing.
