| I was pegged as a type 2 back in November. I had developed what I thought was good control (waking up in the 90s, peaking at 135) until I got knocked down sick with one illness after another for a solid month. Since then , I wake up at 150 and peak in the 300s with the lowest I ever get somewhere around 130. I am in pretty good shape, I stay at 6'2 and 205lbs (in a 185 to 205 weight class, it pays to be the big guy). I'm honestly not entirely sure what my physicians background is when it comes to diabetes, we just moved ino town not too long ago and haven't been seeing her for a terribly long time. I do have an entire regement of blood work coming up soon though that I plan on passing to my most excellent Dr back home.
On a side note, I've hammered out a few more details of my little informal research project. I'm going to go for 3 weeks instead of two, Im going to eat the same exact meals for each week (ala fish on all 3 mondays, chicken on all 3 tuesdays, etc) at as close to the same time as I can. The third week I'm adding in because I'm curious to see if my troubles are coming from the intensity of the workout, or the intensity of getting knocked around. Adrenaline, and controlling it, plays a huge part of a fight, so I'm going to do what amounts to a shadow boxing routine on the third week to try to mimic where there was actual fighting in the first week and see where that gets me. |
