How did your Christmas day bg's behave.

[spiritfree]

I am quite pleased with my bg's today. With all the goodies to eat and a lovely Christmas dinner. The highest I got to was 9.7. Not great but it could have been a lot higher. How did you do?

 

[Sazzaroo]

Good goin depending on exactly what you ate and of course what you would have liked it to be but great!
To be honest I chose not to test but have been mindful I didn't want to go through what happened last year.

Merry Boxmas day!🙂

I did quite well on the whole - readings through the day were: 5.9, 6.2, 5.7, 4.5, 6.3, 6.5, 7.2 and 9.3 🙂

 

[Twitchy]

Bg's were fine, kids were blOoming awful! Lol...

 

[AJLang]

I did really well during the day between 5-9. But just before bed I had a post Christmas dinner spike of 18 but I can live with that on Christmas Day🙂

 

[ukjohn]

I was a good boy, or baddie, depends which way you look at it.

Same here, even managed a hypo in early evening, but the spike got me at 18.5 at bedtime. Unfortunately just woke to a 18.6 😱 even after corrections last night.

Lets try again today.

 

[grainger]

Didn't test much, but hit a high of 14.6, woke up at 8 and now sitting around 5 so all in all not too bad 🙂

 

[pgcity]

Mine weren't too bad considering. Lowest was 4.8 but hit 14.4 after me tea. Oops.

Stayed around 5 all day - but I will pay for it as I ate mainly fats and protiens - even this mornings fasting was higher than normal!

 

[newbs]

Not a great start but good for the rest of the day - 11.3, 6.1, 4.2, 5.5, 5.8. I think the afternoon stroll helped.

 

[AlisonM]

Woke at 4am with hypo, 3.4. Jelly babies got me to 4.2 and toast with a scrape of jam got me into the sixes. By 11am I was 3.9 but a couple of hours after lunch I had soared up to 18.7 and stayed there, or thereabouts till bedtime. Woke today at 12.2 and haven't really shifted much.

 

[Garthion]

I stayed fairly low, starting at 6.5, going down to 4.2 then climbing after lunch to 8.9 then falling again to 3.2 😱 quick hypo treatment and a BG of 8.3 an hour later followed by a Turkey sarnie and BG 2 hrs later at 4.4, this was before bed so a small amount of carbs were consumed with no correction and I woke of 5.6

I love having a pump soooooo much easier

That's excellent Dale! 🙂

Well done everyone. I think we have all done really well. I hope you all had a great day.

 

[Tina chick]

I woke with 6:5 then hypo followed by a hypo after lunch and over 20 come 10:30 when I finished work which I corrected and woke in the early hours with bg of 2 today Been better only one hypo at tea time

 

[everydayupsanddowns]

Probably best Christmas BGs ever. 8 tests, all between 4 and 8. Not quite sure how I managed it, as I didn't feel I held back on treats. Boxing Day (where I used the same sort of approaches) was full of much more 'normal' errors of judgement - 7.3 - 16.2!

Hope everyone enjoyed their days
