Tore that silly dexcom off yesterday, total waste of money. This morning I was 6.4.
off to the Dominican on Friday, can hardly wait. Winter weather has arrived but the sun will be shining tomorrow so it’s actually ok…..but the beach will be nicer! Couldn’t contact my air bib host and was panicking so I contacted Airbnb and within ten minutes my phone was lighting up with messages from the host. I seriously thought I had been ripped off….but now it’s all good. It was more than two days without any response….not cool.

6.2 this morning but readings very erratic overnight, nice and low but up and down like a fiddlers elbow. Suspect the CGM just bedding in hopefully.
Bit of sunshine this morning and no gales, should be able to return garden furniture to their rightful owners when I get home tonight.

5.8 this morning, hopefully back on track after massively "carby" hols with little in the way of alternatives other than abstinence. A grim reminder though of upcoming Xmas over indulgence and temptation. So easy to take a wrong turning or two on a low (ish) carb journey. Would be much easier if we took @PenguinMum suggestion and hibernated for a while until the spring.:)

The term "big boned" lol repeatedly told this growing up!
8 this morning, no sleep, stress and anxiety through the roof and panic attacks last night. Still managed to work out this morning and its going down but think it will stay in the 7s. Eyes blurred this morning, hate anxiety :grumpy:
