Exercise

In an attempt to reign things in a bit, I'm trying to exercise for half an hour each day.

It's working great so far. The 2.6 this morning excepting.

I really should exercise in the morning, but I just can't get motivated enough to get up that early to go on the elliptical. When I move (in less then two weeks!) and am within walking distance of the pool that might provide more motivation. But for now, I like exercising in the evening. I lower my basal rate to try to prevent lows. I forgot to last night.

Tonight, however, diabetes might stop me from exercising. I hate that.

I've been high all afternoon, thanks to snacking. I didn't measure dinner, but bolused for what I thought I was eating.

Two hours after dinner? 4.7. With 5.2 units of insulin left on board!

Seven glucose tablets and about twenty minutes later? 5.9. Slightly less insulin on board, though.

Last night I started out at 11.6, gave myself a half correction, fast-walked for half an hour, and was 6.3 when I was done. Then I went high a few hours later, likely from eating out.

I hate feeling like things are totally out of whack. I'm going to try to exercise tonight because it's the sort of thing that I know I won't continue with if I stop for even a day or two. I'll just have to eat a big snack before doing so!!
