Alison said… - Hi Desiree! I saw your post about exercising and blood sugar. Here's a link from the Joslin clinic that talks about why bg rises sometimes after exercise. A few experiences have taught me that I definitely need to eat something before a lot of activity or else I'll go high. I think I tend to burn off calories fast and therefore if I remember correctly from my reading that the liver then releases glycogen for energy, thus resulting in the higher bg level. I hope this helps some. Here's a couple of groups on TuDiabetes you might be interested in joining too: Diabetic who Run Marathons and Athletic Diabetics. They might be helpful in regards to food choices and other exercise specific issues. Take care and have a great weekend! :0)

- Hey Desiree, I read your post regarding the overload of information and completely understand! I would say one day at a time, and don't try to make too many changes at once. Also, I believe in moderation, that you can live a normal life as long as you follow the moderation rule. That said, everyone is different, and every day is too. If there is anything I can help you with, please feel free to ask questions. Hang in there!
