[QUOTE="stephenrowland, post: 193488, member: 34559"] Hi, Leon! A belated welcome from me. I too recently joined the forum and really enjoyed your post. I think I've had it easier than you, being diagnosed as LADA at 40. At this age you're less likely to commit the youthful indiscretions you refer to! My big motivator is my kids and the need to keep as fit and healthy as possible for them - as a father of a toddler and another on the way you'll know what I mean - they require huge amounts of energy! This next bit might sound a bit stupid but I can't help feeling that the fact that we have to do things that non-diabetics don't in order to remain healthy, and have to monitor and control our lives in fine detail, is a really worthwhile challenge. I hope you know what I am trying to say. It all sounded quite good in my mind but isn't coming out too clearly! I too have recently moved to a basal bolus regime (after previously using novamix 30). The flexibility is great and I have seen a huge improvement in control. The only problem is that I'm using levemir and this is leaving lumps....oh, well. Anyway, good luck with it all. Stephen.
