[QUOTE="RitaCheetah, post: 1942904, member: 497061"] Good that you started on treadmill; after diagnosis we emigrated continents and not knowing anyone yet just cycled close to home; dropped 10 in 30-40 min easily and learned quickly: eat before, drink, and always have sugar with me. Now it’s winter and I swim twice weekly. Tried to get to an hour and almost 6weeks later went from 30min to 50min swim. Want 60min; will get there... Hm.. yesterday’s unexpected scary hypo made me careful... now I bring dextro-energy-chewables into the pool area just in case. Not every day is the same I realize; went for a 4hr hike up to cliffs in the snow (15km) recently and had an AWESOME day... wanted more. So I keep on truckin’ and my goal is a very active outdoors summer canoeing and mountain hiking w my family and hope to by then having an even better idea of how my body works now... not impossible but certainly hard work and effort balancing food and insulin and activity. Every reason to keep fit!! Even more so now. [/QUOTE]
