Yep, I’m finally losing weight again. Found myself going low a lot last week and have been able to lower my bolus rates. Lower bolus rates always results in weight loss as long as I am controlling my blood sugar. In fact, my TDD has gone down from an average of 55 units to an average of 50 units, maybe less.
The school year has been hectic — I have a lot more students.
My schedule helps a lot though — I’m busy every class period and they usually go by fast. In fact, the students really give me time to do anything BUT grade their work (they are a tad slow today in 7th period and I’ve got everything else caught up). So I haven’t been eating during the school day.
I’ve also been able to keep up with the cardio portion of my program, but not with the weight lifting as much. I want to get back to it, but I have to get back to weave pole training with the dogs.
I’ve tried seeing a social worker, but after getting nutrional advice from him twice. I’ve also found myself eating candy after seeing him, so I’m firing him.
Here’s what has really helped (besides Delaine from Fitness for Diabetes), and that is Shrink Youself at http://www.shrinkyourself.com I found it on one of the Doctor’s sites, don’t remember which one, but HE was participating in it.
It’s been really good so far.
