Good morning to all

Today my blood sacrifice to Lady Vampira was 6.4.

It would asppear my membership of 5's club was only temporary. I shall apply for permanent membership in due course

Well, as it is the start of a bank holidays weekend, may you all have a wonderful weekend

You too mick

Morning Diabetes Massive. My fbg is 4.8 this morning, so one weird blip aside on Tuesday, it has been in the 4s with one 3.9, for a week. Fasting may have had an impact. Sorry to hear of your gastric problems @Goonergal but 4 days to yourself and good weather should be good. @Stephenm 2 fantastic progress so well done fella. @flexi06 you are doing all the right things and the 4 club is nothing special but we have your space reserved along with @SueJB and @DJC. @HarrisonK, hope the Bank Holiday is a good one for you and remember the Bill Walsh mantra the score takes care of itself - i.e. its all about continually doing things the right way (although having Joe Montana obs helps!.) I keep missing out @ziggy_w who alerted me to B Bilkman so much in her debt for that. Finally, @geefull will obviously turn in stellar numbers, @dunelm will talk high quality sense and @alf_Josiah will talk.

Good morning folks. It’s a 5.5 for me this morning - green lentil curry last night.
It’s Star Wars day today “May the 4th be with you”. As James Brown said in Blues Brothers, “can you see the light?’
Our own family rebel alliance are escaping to planet Scotland today - just 34 of us for this years annual family weekend . We will return to planet England after all the daftness of the bunk off and or protest weekend has subsided.
May the farce guide you

 

[alf_Josiah]

[Stephenm 2]

Morning all 6.6 today, bit high for me

 

[ianpspurs]

@DJC3 Cycling done HIIT today for 30 mins hitting 96% HR max according to oxymeter. Waiting for an hour to elapse for bg reading. Pushed up to 5.7 so I am hoping that is liver pumping out fuel and tea will help bring it down, being external fuel. Any ninjas out there know if I have this right? Almond milk tea lowered to 5.4 now seeing what double cream tea will do! Back down to 4.8 and hour after start of teas. Whether this proves my theory or not will not matter 1 jot to HbA1c

 

[SueJB]

Aaahhhrrggghh diabetic mates 5.1 this morning. My review went well yesterday my HbA1c levels were 46 what is good considering it was around the 100 mark

A magical number, well done.

 

[SueJB]

Madam's happy home coming allows us to stay in the 5 gang.
I can't quite believe 5.4 but I'd relish the reverse.

@SueJB, good numbers so chill? I am no expert but surely as a type 1 those are good numbers and continually going into 4s could have its own issues?

 

[dogslife]

Rant away @dogslife watching a parent suffer is stressful however much of a trooper you may be. @Stephenm 2 if that fbg is typical you will be fine but best wishes anyway.

Morning all. Thank you ianspurs. I will keep my post short this morning! 6.9 at 8.30am. Enjoy your Friday and the coming weekend folks.

 

[JohnEGreen]

5.3 this morning.

Edit to add

Though only having less than 30 g of carbs yesterday and actually being a good MG day managed to walk nearly 2 miles still found my BG at 7.5 before dinner weird.

 

[rab5]

4.7. Solid result lol

 

[ickihun]

Fbg 11.7 this morning with sore throat from little ones scarlet fever but I've had double figures for weeks now. Dn said no amount of insulin will solve anaemia tiredness and sleeping problems. So trying my best.

I'm really pleased that I keep within the "advised" ranges @ianpspurs but would like madam to be far more consistent. 4s are fine for anyone as far as I know and hope that joining you and @DJC3 on the HIIT bike lark starting Sunday will get me into the club
