I’ve done two good ride days now.
The day before was bad but a good lesson. The Powerade really helped so I started out with that yesterday and did half the bolus dose I had calculated. Lots of tips from the nurse and dietitian at the clinic about exercising with diabetes. Also some more tips on dealing with my post breakfast highs- I forgot I need to be taking my insulin 10-15 mins before eating.
Trying also to get up a bit earlier on work days to get on the stationary bike – the nurse said that trying to keep a consistent amount of exercise is best for my insulin dosing, so I’m not messing too much with how much I’ll need.
