um.. ow?
I have been pumping for a long time but I have ALWAYS worn it on my belly. So I decided for my second pod.. I am going for the back! OUCH. I haven't hurt in a long time.
Oh well.. it doesnt hurt now. I was just surprised. It definitley was a prick. Then it felt itchy. Not like a real itch, but just enough pain that it gave an itching sensation.
Still amazing though!

Ok So I posted the above a couple of hours ag… Continue

Amazing...
Wanna know what the first thing I did was? I got naked! How cool is that. I was still getting insulin the whole time. Amazing...
I am actually having fun checking my blood sugar. The meter that comes with the pod prompts you to label them, it lets you decide on every one if it should be an extended bolus, then it talks to y… Continue

So much has changed, I was one of the first people on a pump when all this started. My mother had to fight tooth and nail with insurance to get me on a pump. Then it was rare and very cutting edge technology. My doctor was one of 8 in the co… Continue

- Did you end up riding up in DFW? The rain put a bit of a damper on things but I had one hell of a blast riding.

- Did you decide if you were going to ride in the DFW Tour de Cure? If so there is a team you should join called "Team Red" it is the Red Riders team. James, the captian of the team will probably be putting together a few "training" rides for it and would like to set up "no drop" rides for all of the routes that us Red Riders will be doing. That way if there are "new" riders out there they will have people to rely on while riding and for each of us to feed off the other with motivation to finish it out and finish it out strong.

If you are riding 24 miles, you should be able to do the 62. They will have rest stops ever 10-15 miles. You have to wear a helmet. It's a saftey issue. Crashed can happen and a head bouncing off pavement just isn't good. Bouncing off pavement with a helmet isn't good either, but it's better than not having a helmet. If you don't have one they will NOT let you ride. So you need to register, and remeber to register as a Red Rider if you are diabetic, get your helmet, and raise the minimum $150 for the ride.
I hope to see you and your mother out there. It should be a blast.

Take care sweetie, Happy Sugars!
