[QUOTE="Deleted member 527103, post: 2600365"] This is really interesting. I still clearly remember a piece of paper I was given when I was first diagnosed about what to do about blood sugar levels and exercise. It said something like - if your levels are below 4, do not exercise - if you levels are between 4 and 7, eat about 10 to 15g slow acting carbs before exercising - if your levels are between 7 and 9, go for it - if your levels are above 9, correct and do not exercise I know my body is very sluggish above 9 so exercising at that level would put a strain on my body causing my levels to rise higher. As I said, it is interesting to read how other people manage exercise and is another example of how we are all different. Absolutely. I could not agree more. It is probably why the advice I remember was not to exercise if over 9 because I would need to correct and end up with iob. [/QUOTE]
