...and i would assume for my pump to recieve the reading i would have to insert the sensor ID but my nurse that set it up on me didn't give it to me. I'm only borrowing it from my doctors office so i don't have all of the stuff it came with. So my question is do i need to call in the morning for the ID? or does it start working when i use the tester that talks to my pump? i know she she put it on it had a green light and now there's no green light so did it turn itself off? i'm so confused on…See More

Starting regular exercise?

I'm full aware that i'm a healthy weight and i don't think there is anything wrong with my body (besides my pancreas lol) so this isn't a "oh i'm fat so i need to loss weight" thing. I just think that i never really exercise regularly like i probably should to be healthier over all and to help control diabetes a little bit more. So what would be a good example overall exercise plan for a 17 year old girl.See More
