Unfortunately, I had a hypoglycemic incident today, hence the Reeses, etc.
I've dropped my meds again, but as I'm dropping calories, I have to adjust. I wanna cut back more on carbs, but I have to do it slowly, so as not to put myself into a coma, LOL.

Workout: Abs, ow. Shoulder rehab stuff. Bike ride, 10 km. Calves are still sore from the other night.

LOL. Women have an excuse for chocolate. Isn't it supposed to be better than sex?
I have these dextrose tablets to take when that happens, but I always panic & eat something too.

Good morning

I don't blame you for panicing I would too. What triggers your hyperglycemic events?

HiDn ... Have you looked into Insulow? This is basically Glucorell from the AF store.
www.insulow.com

Love the use of color my man How is the progress coming so far? I'd like to see the Protein Up a little bit more like the grams from the 26th

Have a great week!

ck, I get hypoglycemic if I haven't eaten enough carbs for my activity level, based on my med dosage. Can also be affected by ambient temps, my eating habits for the past couple of days, fluid intake, etc. Doesn't happen often, but as I'm changing my diet, there will be a concomitant(?) decrease in required meds to keep my glucose levels correct.
It's releative, too. One week I can be hypoglydemic at 5.5 mmol/l, & a week later, can be fine at 3.9.
Bunny, I haven't tried it, but I'm reluctant to try anything new like that right now, becasue I basically understand my actions/reactions now. I don't want to throw anything new into the mix.
I did try Glurorell before, but If I remember, I had to take the Gluc before each meal, based on carb intake. With my meds, I take 1 pill, twice a day. Simpler.

Every coupla years I go to a class on managing diabetes. Every time, they say to watch your protein intake, so it doesn't get too high. So, we're supposed to watch our carbs, to reduce blood glucose levels, but not have too much protein, so you can't build muscle. I once said to the Dr., "Why don't I just go out on a pizza & beer laden frenzy. At least I'll die happy & won't have to worry about losing muscle, losing my virility, & losing self respect because the Dr.s have helped turn me into Jabba the Hut.

Do you follow the Canadian Diabieties diet? That is what my trainer has me on and there are loads of carbs, and I have built the most muscle on this diet. I know everybody is different, but I thought especially in your situation....

I was on it, when I first went on meds. I gained 40 lbs in about 4 months, zero muscle.
I had some other health issues, also. Undiagnosed sleep apnea, & undiagnosed low T.
It might help me now that those issues are under treatment, but I'm having some success at what I'm doing, so I'll wait to see if I plateau.
I'll prolly hit 10 lbs next weekend, so, when I do it'll be the lightest I've weighed in 4 yrs.
Anyone that's pushing the diabetes border should do everything in their power to avoid meds. They complicate the issue, immensely. Then if you're diabetic & on meds, avoid insulin, because it is the same. My brother is on insulin & it is such a pain in the posterior.
