Happy Thursday everyone, nearly the end of the week.

My number was a lovely 5.1 this morning.

Good luck to all who need it today!

 

[MissMuffett]

7.2 at 7:30! To be expected. We’ll not say anything about the baguette and 2 Halloween French Fancies I had after my mri yesterday! I still need to analyse why I sabotage my progress and feel I need to reward myself with cr*p food

Have a thoughtful Thursday everyone x

Morning!
Back in the 5s this morning with a 5.7 Travelling to Leeds for a couple of days to see the son. Fingers crossed for the weather

4.7 today
In spite of upping carbs a little because of the new hiatus hernia. Thank goodness over five years in remission gives me some flexibility to cope with other dietary needs!

ps Porridge experiment...pre 6.0, 2 hours post (after a bit of pottering followed by pushing dust around ending with 15-20 mins vacuuming) 6.3 . I'm happy with that but, as we all know, these things are personal and very changeable!

Hi, I am going to start posting in here as I like the extra chat option.

5.3 on my second test (half an hour later) as the first was 4.3!!

Something weird keeps happening with my morning readings. I usually wake up, pee, wash hands and take my readings and up until now they have been in the 5s and 6s. But a few times in the last week, my readings have been in the 4s, but if I wait and retest, they are back in the 5s and 6s. It seems my dawn phenomenon is taking its time to get going all of a sudden. Is that normal, have I turned into a sloth?

Welcome I post on both threads and this one is more interesting .

7.5 this morning

I forgot to check this morning but I did get an email with my blood results from last week and my Hba1c is now 35. Had a meal deal for lunch, chicken pasta main and two eggs as the snack. Just done a 2hrs later test and 8.3 but I didn't test beforehand so I don't know how much of a spike it is. I still have my cold/flu so it'll be a bit higher due to that.

6.1 this morning, happy with that. Almond cracker withdrawl is a real thing….

 

[RoughcutAU]

Thanks @PenguinMum appreciate it.

Todays FBG not that much better. Fingerprick 8.3 Libre 6.9…. Wondering if I can be bothered to set alarm for 2:30am every morning for a small bolus……. Nah!

Morning all. Got my A1c result. Gone up to 58 from 51, so the nurse wants to see me. Had 2 blood tests to check. Bit (a lot) disappointed in myself. I fell off the diabetic wagon good and proper so have only myself to blame.So it's start again time. Have a lovely weekend folks
