[QUOTE="novorapidboi26, post: 1294611, member: 90156"] Have you been on DAFNE or a similar course? The beauty of these courses is that you get to see the whole process of insulin and carbs broke down and ultimately you see all your calculations actually working. For me and most others this is enough to get you motivated to test, purely to see how well you did...ha ha.... Another motivation for me personally is trying to avoid high blood sugars, mainly because I really feel it when i go high and I just have no energy, which isn't a option with two young kids.... how do you feel when high? If you haven't attended a course like DAFNE I would recommend looking into it.... in the meantime, as someone already mentioned....try making the effort to test before just one meal a day, and do that for a few days....and try and record it either on paper or in an app.. and then come back and share your readings.....;) [/QUOTE]
