Group 7-day waking average?

05:04 BS 10.4. Has been worse & also, better! A so, so emoji!

Took me a bit of time to work out how to post again as I had to change my email but, got the hang of it: had to confirm my email address! Saying “Umm” thinking emoji!

The similes/emojis are changed now so, not QUITE sure WHAT some of them are: will verbalise them all to start with; saves confusion on both sides! Saying “Umm” thinking emoji!

It’s been a very long time since I’ve been on here & missed it: inner sunshine has been missing for some time now; &, as if by magic, just starting to compose & type this, my sense of humour is coming back!🙂 Oh, that’s one I know, even though it’s a different emoji from before! And with the humour I can feel some inner sunshine coming back as well as I get back into the hang of posting again. 🙂

First off, I should say that BS reading isn’t waking as I’m about to go to bed now after spending all evening & the night reading this thread to catch up what’s been happening since I last posted on here or, indeed been on these forums at all! Yawning emoji! Took longer than I realised & I’m DEAD tired but, as it’s morning NOW, might as well test & post.😉 Know that emoji too!:D That one as well though, I liked the previous big toothy grin emoji better!:D

I’m just off to catch some z’s & will post thread later, when I’m awake again, with my updates since I was last here! It’s REALLY nice to be posting again: the act of which has given me a bit of inner sunshine; that Sunny on the Inside feeling!😎

A VERY Good Morning to you all & may you all have sunshine on the inside & outside! :D😉 Knowing the winking too though, not QUITE as cheeky as the old one!:D

PS:- It’s awfully frustrating to be having SUCH nice sunny weather, on the outside, when we’re in Lockdown! Frustrated emoji!
 
4.8 this morning. 🙂
Not so nice weather today, but not raining yet. So, early morning walkies for me.

@Lanny I'm very glad to see you back on here as will most of the "regulars" on here.
Posting on here for me is very therapeutic and it helps to focus my mind for the day ahead.
So I'm really looking forward to reading your posts again.

Stay safe and well.

Dez
 
Good Morning All, I'm not sure if this is a good reading or bad reading for me but my reading today is 4.2 , hope everyone has a good safe day
 
Morning all. Awake just after 3, no idea why. After five or six stabs and a new lancet 7.5 @ 5.56am.

Rotten weather, spitting. :( Wanted to get out there, have lots to do, got the gardening bug!
 
Well first of all, welcome back @Lanny we we’re worried! Glad to see you are ok though. Looking forward to seeing you post again. Anyways, back to the matter in hand. 6.4 on this lovely morning. I think today I will mostly be staying in! What I mean is I won’t be leaving the safety of my home and garden. It’s the new norm for me and I have to find a way to “enjoy” it. Answers on a postcard please. Have a safe day everyone. 🙂
 
Morning

Savers order was also despatched yesterday so really surprised but things may be starting to get back to their timescales before all of this started

4.9 today

Omg welcome back @Lanny Fantastic to see you! I had googled your address trying to find a phone number to make sure you were ok but was unsuccessful in the hunt
Xx

@Lanny! So wonderful to hear from you again, you have been really missed {{{HUGS}}} 🙂
 
Good morning 🙂 5.8 for me today 🙂 I've noticed that a minor, but annoying consequence of the lockdown is having to eat different bread than usual, as it's more difficult to get hold of the Burgen that I've been eating for the best part of the last 10 years 😱 Currently I'm on a Morrison's 'The Best' seeded loaf and no matter what I do it's giving me big spikes afterwards, grr! :( Still, as long as that remains the worst of my problems, I shan't complain! 🙂
 
Morning everyone
A concerning 7.1 this morning. Things seem to have gone a bit random, and can't think of any significant changes in food and exercise. I currently only test in the morning, so think I need to go back to more detailed testing and food diary.

Had home delivery yesterday of a great box of fresh veg. from a company called 'Fruit for the Office' who to keep in business have now diversified to do home fruit and veg deliveries. Lovely veggies all very fresh, and some fresh eggs as well.

I haven’t had Burgen for 6 weeks. Currently eating Hovis granary, thick, very heavy going and dense and 20 grms of carbs! Tesco seeded wasn’t too bad at about 15/16 grms. Daughter got me some Vogel put it in freezer. 15 grms but teeny tiny slices! #firstworldproblems

I'm keeping fingers crossed that my latest ASDA order will provide me with 3 lovely soya and linseed loaves 🙂
 
Morning all it’s a 5.9 today

Lovely to see again you @Lanny I’ve missed your sunshine posts. I hope things are going as well as possible for you 🙂

Pouring down here, the hill over the road has gone missing in the gloom. Time to find my Nanook of the North anorak for a soggy walk.

I've switched to Hovis wholemeal as cant get Tesco's and at 15g carbs a slice it isnt too bad and doesn't seem to spike, I actually really like it too so will continue to get it as Tesco changed their recipe a few loaves before lockdown and it wasn't so great, its 40p dearer a loaf for Hovis but hey ho lol xx

Morrison's didn't have Burgen so I chose 3 Hovis seeded loaves - unfortunately when it came to delivery they didn't have any of those so they substituted with just one of their own seeded loaves. It tastes fine, just spikes! 😱 🙄
