Finally - keeping safe
Well, I seriously think I finally broken the code in order to keep my BG in a safe A1C5 range. Along with 20 minutes of biking everytime I have a meal, (meaning at least 2 sessons a day), keeping hydrated to the saturation point is the other.

In the last month or so, I've finally got the disiplin to keep saturated. With that point, I no longer pee constently, and I don't have the dizzy spells that come from drinking lots at one time. I keep a big resuable waterbottle around and drain it over 30 minutes or so while I'm working. I also keep up with the sodas, and tea too, but the water bottle is the step I needed.

Now I need to buy a couple of new ones too. This one is a bit old, so it may start breaking soon. Also I need a spare when the other's in the dishwasher. No need to get infections from disentary or septis! (eek!)

Getting to this point, is a royal pain in the ass. Lets say I'm dehyrated to the point my BGs start going into the 110s, 120s and staying there. (that's yellow pee folks.) pasty and/or dry mouth, etc. It'll take a week of intense drinking (10 - 12 16oz glasses of water a day) to end this. At the same time, I'm dizzy, and staying in the bathroom peeing. It can't be good to go like that, so I have to be careful to eat lots of foods with high iron content, and other electrolytes. Once I make it, keeping saturated takes disipline. I have to drink enough to stay that way, but thankfully that can be done. Just have to make sure I do it.

So there you have it. My BGs stay in the 90s, low 100s almost daily. I'm getting a 400 strip order in soon. I'll see if I can't do a good number of tests in a day and post them here. (I don't test much, because I know how certain foods bother me anymore.) But it's good to see how it's doing once in awile.

Hopefully too, before the end of this month, I can get my blood work done. I need too, before my insurance refuses to pay. :\
