I missed the 2:00 pm test but it was too soon after my big mexican food lunch, I am now at 94, I tend to overbolus for mexican food :), I am afraid to exercise as I know I will go too low, but who knows the fat could kick in from all the cheese

I was having a lot of lows and my A1C was 6.7, so the last 5 months I changed my basals with fasting help, changed my target number from 100 to 120 and also changed my carb ratios, so you would think my A1C would go up because I was not being as t...

Have not worn it in years, and only recently bought the flip flops from a FL trip. Never finished filling the bracelet, but it may become my new hobby :)

My little Avery

My niece Avery is 4 years old and today I was at her house helping her parents pack up their home to move, way sad, but Avery makes life wonderful.

About a month ago her parents hooked up a little back bike, not sure what it is called, to her mom's bike and she was so scared to try it, but I finally talked her into it and now she can't get enough of it. I finally talked her into it that day and she wanted Auntie Karen to do the front bike riding, but I was really messed up that day emotionally… Continue

Off Topic - SEAMUS :(

My niece and nephew in GA Cameron and Carson lost their 14 year old puppy today, Seamus.

We had many great beach vacations with her as she was always running circles around us when we walked the beach to make sure we were safe. She was a great dog and I will miss her. I saw her a year ago and she was struggling big time, but she still managed to bring me a toy to mess with her.

I had a good reading today too (which actually surprised me because I had eaten 20 grams of carb and forgot to bolus until about an hour after eating), but I knew that I had a ton of insulin on board. So I skipped the exercising. Now I've been cleaning the apartment for about 6 hours. That's enough "exercise" for me".

Hope that you are having a good day!
