Wow 30 blocks ? That's impressive. There's nothing wrong with that. Yes, 200 is too high after not eating for that long or before a meal. This disease is nuts, eh? There is something you should know if you don't already. I had a feeling that you were going to say symptoms. I don't know how long you have had Diabetes but after having it for a while, our bodies start to deceive us a bit. Those symptoms sometimes disappear when they should be warning us. We can feel perfectly normal but our sugars can be either too high or too low. Gee, I remember feeling fine, I just happened to test and I was 2.2 mmol.(40 mg.). Other times I was higher than I expected. That's why I test often so I can correct it. For the lows, it's called hypo-unawareness. Anyways, sorry to bother you Javis. I just care. ![]() |

Well, I know what you mean about symptoms and not being really aware about the sugar levels. But, anyway, I discovered that I can get an idea of what I should be measurig based on what I ate and my current level of activity. Since I know I have diabetes, I followed directions from my doctor, he told me that is good to try to have an accelerated metabolism to assure a better measuring.
That´s why I´m trying to make large walks everyday, at good speed. By the way, 30 blocks is the average. Some days I walk the double of this. It´s simple: I don´t own a car and I live 30 blocks from my work. Sometimes I got the time to make the journey twice. I think I´ll never buy a car... Take care you too. Cheers! |

Ya, unfortunately, vehicles spoil People and isn't good for the health. For exercise, I will walk a mile or so or ride my bike. I also dance and lift 5 pounders or pull 40 pounders on the exercise machine. Anyways, here's to your health. ![]() *Terrie* |
