Thank you.
I've looked at the Dexcom unit. I would like to run with it for 2-3 needles (20-30 days) to get accurate data on things I surmise are good, but yet cannot prove.
I've also worked on guessing the score before I test. Interestingly enough, after about 2 days with the meter, I within +-2 points. That really surprised me.
And a very good point about the exercise after I eat. I have been doing that in the evening, not always after I eat. I'm going to believe you without proof, only because my body knows I need the exercise. I've also heard that HIIT is also great (meter backed results).
If I do worsen, I do have the metformin I can fall back on. I'd rather not make that the first response if diet shows more effect.
- erkkie 11y agoGreat to see someone taking charge of their condition and using data to do so. Have you tried squats after eating. Use of the largest muscles in the body may help with extra glucose sensitivity.
- mrfusion 11y agoSeems like good advice. I think this is recommended in the four hour body too. I'm not sure why it was down voted.
- kefka 11y agoI wholeheartedly agree. When I asked my doctor about what kind of exercises to do, and whom to ask about that for safe weight loss via exercise, he said "Oh just do exercises". I also have an existing shoulder injury, and meeting with an orthopedic surgeon. His answer was "Don't do these 2 exercises because of exacerbating the condition, but the rest are safe. And These will help." I'm still kind of in the research phase on what I can do that will cause a good amount of change. But my research also shows that a safe amount to lose is 1lb/week.
