[QUOTE="itconor, post: 636415, member: 71330"] Thank you, i was fitted with a CGM last October however they didnt give me the device to see the results in real time, and they only gave me the results last month (typical NHS) so by the time i had the outcome the results were useless to me. i feel i would love a CGM for the confidence it gives, however the NHS Dont really supply them and the cost without the NHS is far far to high. in terms of exersize no, i lost the weight just with diet control and i have to admit that i really dont exercise that much, im now in a healthy BMI but am still unfit, i enjoy swiming but being separated from my blood meter and acess to sugar makes me to anxious to do this that much. The other issue i have is my meter can give me wildly diffrent results. (accu-chek mobile) i can wash my hands and test and get 12.3 then test using a diffrent finder on the same hand and get 9.0 which leads me to distrust my meter and increase testing, i love the meter due to how easy it is to bring out and test when you have shakey hands but i fear i may need to switch if accuracy is an issue [/QUOTE]
