[QUOTE="Marie 2, post: 2353012, member: 475037"] What a colossal muck up here. I went snorkeling for the first time since the death of my dog. So I am not "used" to the long swim and while I only stayed out for 2 hours, it was a strong current this time of year. I thought I was going to stay nice and steady, no insulin in the morning other than my basal, I dropped to 5.2 which would be perfect on a normal day, but not to snorkel. So I downed about 20 carbs and by the time I was swimming I was 9.7. Okay fine I guess I won't have to worry about dropping too low...................but I never dropped at all. I think it was the exertion which as when I had started doing those long swims I would climb until I got used to it. Okay dose to come down, dose to eat (pizza, really bad choice, will not be repeated after snorkeling) and watch me climb to a 14 for 5 friggin hours. And then drop and now I will have to watch for dropping too much because of all that snorkeling............. It was worth it still, hopefully I still will think so after tonight.
