Morning everyone meter says 4.2 today a lot lower than I’d like but I suppose it’s my own fault as I didn’t eat a bedtime snack last night because I went to new look and didn’t get back until 8.30 but I got a beautiful pinafore and roll neck jumper with my birthday money I’m planning on wearing tommorow as I’m going out for my birthday dinner which was meant to be last week but my nanny was in hospital so we couldn’t go. No plans for today just going to stay in and relax anyway have a good Saturday everyone:)

Good morning all. 5.7 today. Not yet light, so don’t know what sort of day is in store. Home gym, then walk later as it brightens up. Happy belated birthday @rhubarb73
@Debandez hope your interview and photoshoot went well.
Sympathies to everyone with the flu bug....hope it improves.
Hope everyone else is well. Your BG tows the party line. Have a great Saturday.

Morning. Bit of a late one today but happy with a 4.5. About to brave Ikea.
Ooooh that is brave on a Saturday morning...last time I went there on a Sunday...we were first & the car park was empty...when we'd finished shopping the car park was rammed it took us 35 minute to find the car.

Morning all looks very wet and grey out there and I have the great fun of going to the flu jab clinic this am to look forward to - lucky me - almost as much fun as @Goonergal s plan to go to Ikea. Seriously @Goonergal hope you find what you’re looking for!
4.7 fbg this morning so all good also did ketones for first time in a few weeks and are still 2.1 ( were 2.2 two weeks ago so happily motoring along)
Have a really good day all and hope you poorly ones stay dry and warm.

Made me laugh shelley...our flu jabs don't start until next weekend...since I have a review at the end of the month...I'll wait until then.

Morning All. 5.9 at 0800. Great joy to see a 5 again. Arthritic Knee is still stubbornly refusing to bend fully so preventing me driving. However its good to be able to resume some duties around the house.
Hello @n1ck and welcome to our chatty thread reporting FBG. Are you T1 or T2?
Have a great Saturday everyone. Get well and stay safe.

Good morning All,

5.5 this morning, so i'm back on track. Heavy rain predicted later in London. I'm supposed to go for a long dog walk with a friend later on and later we have dinner at my place. I'm cooking stuffed peppers. :)

Have a good weekend!

Morning all. 5.4 today but slept over 9 hrs so the reading was at the time I would normally take bg as breakfast substitute level. That level would be around the average for 3 years so all good - sleep restored.
