[QUOTE="Jeff_uk, post: 1330682, member: 339171"] Everyone that replied thanks, I have taken some very useful ideas from reading them and appreciate the input. Torq, firstly thanks for such an in depth look at how you deal with keeping fit and controlling your diabetes. It's really good to hear from someone who has been there and done it. I am going to change a few things in the way I approach this, taking my time to make sure I really understand the effects of making small changes has on me. I think I have been too worried about going Hypoglycemic while out running so I try eat and then go out (I will probably have had Novorapid - Bolus within the 4 hour window) like I now have some need to load up which probably isn't correct and which is causing my bloods to dramatically drop with being sensitive to the Bolus insulin while out, today I have gone for a low carb diet, omelette for breakfast, fruit and a tuna salad for lunch to try take out any need for Novorapid until my evening meal. My blood have been pretty steady today - started at 4.4mmol, breakfast brought be up to 7.9mmol and been between 7.7-10.0mmol without taking any Bolus, I intend to go home and go for a run drip feeding carbs if required. Just typing this has made me stumble on what is best as I feel I should probably eat something before I go out running as my last meal was at 12:00 and my run will be about 18:00, I will probably have 3 Glucose tablets and make sure I keep an eye on blood sugars while I am out. As they say, if it was too easy its probably not worth it. I will let you know how I get on once I return, hopefully with a big smile on my face! [/QUOTE]
