Thank you JuicyJ, i will keep it up but feeling low gets to me alot
My only concern for you is why your feeling low. Is it the frustration of doing exercise which isn't what you really enjoy to help lower your bgs? To find they double cross you and spike you.
I have used fatty protein nibbles to prevent the spike in the past.
Unfortunately my bulging discs prevent me from walking without pain so I steer away from even my beloved swimming. Which I sorely miss.
I found my liver was dumping on me in times of stress. Getting ready for a swim with laboured breathing (mostly due to undiagnosed asthma).
I now walk with painkillers, most days, very very slowly but for a stroll and multipal stops along the way. I try and prevent it being stressful and a pleasure. Sometimes I succeed.
I must admit at 18 I too had (undiagnosed) type2. I had insulin resistance, for sure.
I exercised my legs off, for fun only.
Are you sure this form of exercise is a pleasure at the moment? Maybe find something more fun?
