Can I ask why you take lantus at 6 pm? I'm also recently diagnosed and still honeymoning (aug 29, 2008). I used to not take lantus at all because I didn't really need it (or so I thought). But I realized its importance in prolonging my honeymoon p...

One way of finding the spikes is going ahead and testing when trying a new food. test 30 mins after, 1 hr, 1:30 and 2 hrs and just see what that proabola looks like as you are eating that food. That way you have a pretty good idea of what the insu...

Congrats on the 5.5! And constant mid 80s before meals? I'm getting jealous again. ;) I thought the whole thing of the after-meal testing was about finding out how much you sugar spikes after meals, but I still don't know how to know when it does ...

Congrats on lowering your A1c and getting under 7. Yeah, you have to be careful when measuring after meals because it may artificially inflate your average. and keep in mind that the insulin works for 4 hours so even after testing after 2 hours, y...

I also calculated the average of my bg today, because I can't wait to get my A1c results (which I will do in about 2 weeks). So average of the last 6 weeks is 133 with a standard deviation of 61. So I really cannot compete with your values (strang...

Ryan replied to Vera J.'s discussion 'What motivates you? & What do you like about your diabetes?'
I like posts like this because it's truly the way I feel about diabetes. I'm glad to see others share my viewpoint that it's a positive impact on our lives. Sure there are heartaches and troubles, but what is another day without a challenge? To me...

I've been really tracking my numbers lately. I've been keeping up with my running, usually 12 miles or so a week. I try to run 3 miles each time I am out and walk once a week also, usually for 4-6 miles. I play softball twice a week. I haven't bee...

Ryan replied to Leanna's discussion 'Supply case for use when walking?'
You can also look into a local bike shop. maybe you can pick up a biking jersey normally used for water bottles and put anything you might need to carry in there. they also most likely carry general fitness gear like a more fitness oriented fanny ...

I've been really tracking my numbers lately. I've been keeping up with my running, usually 12 miles or so a week. I try to run 3 miles each time I am out and walk once a week also, usually for 4-6 miles. I play softball twice a week. I haven't been eating as well as I would like but I would say that this is "normal" for what I can achieve. I was entering all the forgotten readings into my iPhone Diametic app today and I wanted to compare the two.
