Real World...

You would think with outall the buffet lines from the cruise ship tempting me, I would be running great numbers but no such luck. I think I am going for the site change AND the insulin vial change. I'll rule out what I can........

Keep going.......... Peace, Bob

Much improved glucose levels

This last week or so, I have been eating fewer carbohydrates and less fast acting carbs. I have seen a marked improvement in my glucose levels espescially after 2 or 3 hours after a meal. I have added back exercise the last few days.(I had stopped for a few weeks as I had the upper respiratory infection from he77).

My morning glucose readings are much better and in range since I have dropped the number of carbohydrates I eat at breakfast. Normally I would spike high for 2-4 hours after breakfast and then have to fight all day to get back down, trying not to do the hi-low ping pong thing. I was typically eating around 40 carbs in the morning, and I have dropped to about 20 or 25. Maybe I will even lose a few pounds and regain my svelte figure....ha ha...

I am always amazed at how much better my physical and mental being improves when I exercise regularly. You would think I would have figured that out long ago since I have been lucky enough to have this disease for 44 years. I love my trikke. check it out here www.trikke.com
