[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1156920, member: 196960"] A few type 2s also experience this. Me included. I've put it down to stress. I find most exercises stressful. Very rarely is my body happy to jog around the streets or cycle and pull my nearly 20 stones around with me. I've resorted back to walking or light swimming. Even swimming increases my bgs into double figures even on insulin. I have to test before changing and eat a tiny nibble of protein then test as soon as I get out of the pool otherwise after shower and change it is higher again. This swim session is between meals. If it was later in the day I might have to monitor again to revise. My kids prefer saturday morning sessions. I guess the protein keeps liver happy. I haven't tried just fat but some insulin resistant posters believe fat stops spikes too. I'm happy to stick to fatty protein like cheese or pork scratchings. I still lose weight regardless of which nibble. I enjoy walking but very little time for it. Once 3yr old starts nursery in september I'm hoping to go on walking trips. Walking with him is very slow and unpredictable with his inquisitive and active bursts. Not ideal. Other posters have nibbled on protein too to prevent spikes. (Type 2 forums) I hope this helps. :) [/QUOTE]
