Stark Reminder on the value of exercise

Hi Everyone!

Today I got a stark reminder of the value of exercise and BG levels. Yesterday was a very busy day, and quite rainy to boot so I bypassed my usual indoor training to just take care of things. Well, this moring I was greeted with an FBG of 115. While that is not the end-of-the-world kind of reading it is a reminder that regular daily exercise does bring down BG levels and even one day of not exercising (without adjusting your diet accordingly) will show up quite fast.

Fortunately the weather for today is predicted to be excellent so I'll be out on the roads (playing in traffic) aboard our Tandem Bicycle and burning up glucose and calories.
