Me and my BG don't like travelling by train and as we didn't want a hypo, I ate a few too many carbs I think and woke this morning to 7.1. Downwards and onwards.
Freezing in the south

Hi all, my first visit to this thread but think its a good idea.
7.1 at 7:20am.

Higher than it has been so a bit disappointed - thought I’d got past the liver dump stage.

I did have a takeaway curry last night though. No rice, poppadoms, naan etc just chicken tikka, a bit of saag paneer and a bit of cauliflower curry, but still around 40-50g carbs I estimate.

Off to have a creamy coffee then take the dog out and try to get back in controll
Welcome

Good morning everyone
BG this morning @ 6.30 am was 6.3
Have to admit to eating a few more carbs than is good for me,but when I'm upset, stressed or worried and I'm all these things at the moment I do on occasion have what I shouldn't. Have a good day everyone! K
A bit of what you shouldnt will do no harm sending big hugs take care xx

Still well in range, Granny_grump. You deserve a few treats at the moment.:)

Morning all. Back up to 7.4 at 8am after a painful night. Bright and sunny here but very cold. Brrrr! Enjoy your Sunday one and all. :)
Hi dogslife sorry you're having a bad time of things and lack of sleep won't be helping,perhaps after your scan they may be able to help you with your back problems, wish you well! K

frosty and sunny this morning, I might get a good walk in with mum's little dog Suzie today before the threatened bad weather arrives in a couple of days, she and I enjoy it (and so do my bg and anxiety!).
Have a good day everyone :)

6.3 this morning wonder if it was owt to do with the Big Mac and fries or the Mac flurry then again it could have been the full fat Coke but I'm pretty sure the Morrison's party time cup cakes have nothing to do with it though.

Had my birthday treat yesterday rather than today my actual birthday.

Did a test with another meter as well it said 6.9 but was obviously wrong so I discounted it.
