So I'm going to try to get my A1C back down.<\/p>\n
Here's what I am seeing on a regular basis — my basal rate seems to be too low in the mornings. I am high when I wake up, and I am high after my morning mocha (I know, but for now it's the only thing I can do in the morning without tossing it back up and I need the caffeine to face the day).<\/p>\n
I ran a 50% higher basal and got back to normal. Plus I'm running my agility basal.<\/p>\n
So here's my thought and if it's nuts, let me know.<\/p>\n
Switch my teacher basal to my agility basal. Make all my other basals higher in relation. Run the new teacher basal during the day and check often.<\/p>\n

I'm blaming my not checking my blood sugar on my Dean, she tried to get me to carry less around. Yes, a smaller bag will be good. I'm going to go through my Ameribags and switch to my smallest and see if that helps.<\/p>\n
Right now I have the meter on the desk and have stuck to my classroom, and have been able to test the way I should all day.<\/p>\n
Need to do the same at home.<\/p>\n

Also need to remember to pick up money for personal trainer — I've moved her schedule to Friday and Tuesday and need to get better at exercising when she isn't at the house.<\/p>\n
