[QUOTE="Sapien, post: 2083493, member: 507939"] I had another interesting reaction to exercising on an empty stomach versus after eating some carbs (fruit). Yesterday, I ate a relatively low carb lunch around noon then exercised at about 5:30 pm. No food since lunch. BG before exercise 93 (5.2) and after 102 (5.7). After I ate dinner my BG dropped to 95 (5.3). Today I ate a little more than a cup of fruit at about 4:30pm. Exercised again at 5:30. BG before exercise (1 hr after fruit) 120 (6.7) and after exercise 63 (3.5). Hypoglycemic? Once again my blood sugar drops quite a lot when exercising after eating carbs, but rises (or barely drops) when exercising on an empty stomach. Exercise was alternating running at 8 mph and resting by walking at about 4 mph for about half an hour. Strange reaction? [/QUOTE]
