Deus... I feel your comments are slightly unwarranted. Since when does messing up an a1c mean you need to overhaul your whole life? I was at 7.something last time... does that mean I need to go onto a pump? Something that I am fundamentally opposed to? No, it means I need to change a few things, and above all else, keep better records!
But, Bonnie, I am unsure what you want from us. We are a primarily MDI and Pump using group. That doesn't mean you can't get good advice from us about the other aspects of living with diabetes (exercise, food, the general suck-ness of it all) and a sense of community. But it seems like you are looking for someone on here to validate your choice. Only you can do that for yourself. It seems like you know a 2 shot a day plan works for you... good! Now ask us how you can make it work *better*
