[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1535843"] It may be an affect of the "nice bout of exercise" which would make your insulin more effective and, thus, keeping your BG down. This may be injected insulin (if you take any) or the insulin your body produces. I often have to eat after a heavy exercise session and not take any insulin (I am t1 so usually inject/pump when eating any carbs) to maintain my BG and avoid hypo. As I understand it, the carbs we eat either go into our blood (and raise our BG) or liver as storage. When we exercise, our liver kicks out lots of sugar to give use the energy we need. As a result, post heavy or prolonged exercise, our liver stores are low. Therefore, much of the carbs we eat next go to top up our liver supplies instead of raising BG. [/QUOTE]
