[QUOTE="jj.sam, post: 110415, member: 22904"] Hi there, I'm recently diagonsed type 1 and have had a bit of a 'rolla coaster ride' when it comes to injections and physical activity. I can get up in the morning, have a bowl of cereal and go out for a good cardio work out (run or circuit training). After i have trained i then usuaslly have a bowl of porridge a bacon sandiwch and some fruit. The only time i check my b/g is first thing before training. I find that i dont really get an accurate reading until 2 - 3 hours after training. Once i have let the dust settle i then test and make a decision on an injection. Some mornings training and eating like this i dont require any fast acting insulin until at least lunch time. I dont make any changes to my long lasting dosage and just adjust my fast acting depending on what type of training and what the b/g level is afterwards. For me, this is working and my b/g has been on average 5.5 - 7 over the last couple of weeks. I train Tues, Thurs mornings and on a Friday lunch time usually and often play hockey on a wednesday. I'm not sure if this is any use to you, i am finding that there is a lot of information that is of value to everyone with diabetes, however a lot of methods for adjusting dosage and daily routine come down to the individual as we are different. Good luck with the swimming. [/QUOTE]
