[QUOTE="JayAmerican, post: 2175872, member: 516798"] Thanks, I do get that sitting is worse than standing, I just didn't realize for me how much it made a difference. It seems to impact even more than stresses. I've estimated that sitting increases my post-meal tests by as much as 40 mg/DL - that's a whole 2% of A1C. I plan on getting a standing desk soon and will make my work let me get one for my office - if it makes that much of a difference and I can't exercise while I'm working or need to be in front of the computer, at least I can try to stand as much as possible!
