Ok I have not really played with my temp basal, because I am never sure what I really need to do.....Well I don't ever really want lower the basal cause I like the snacking LOL>.....bad but ya know....

But when I am lazier then usual....it kind of gets hard to know what your body is going to do. Well I had a really good sugar day, this happens on the first day Of being a little less active, by day two the bgs creep up a bit, but I have screwed this up big time thinking I would plummit after my two hour mark....

Well today I hit the nail on the head, even though I ran a bit elevated it is a good learning experience for me....I woke up at 115, which is ok....but I was 157 after breakfast still no complaining, but since I wasn't running around sitting around I was 153 for lunch still no biggie, I am experimenting here, then I bolused and waited about 25 minutes to eat lunch, then I was 107 2 hrs later, usually if I am active I need a snack, and this is what confused me a few weeks ago, cause I wasn't active ate a snack and had a 221 by dinner pissed me off...

So today I just went about my business and I was back up to 144 for dinner see no snack no major high.....then as always I know when I eat spaghetti I am always about 20 pts lower then what I was origianlly and bam I am now 125 I hit the nail on the head, this makes me so happy and I will tell you why...

Now that I am able to predict lazy days, which since then I am only able to predict busy active days, this means that next time I am just lalala, and taking it easy, I can experiment now with a higher temp basal rate, and have even more awesome sugars.....so this is great it is an extreme breakthru for me, I am so happy.....now I can get the slow paced days9which are rare) but still every 2 to 3 weeks I have a couple I can get it down so my numbers look good like they do when I either have a normal or really active day....

I just had to share......A1c's in the 5's here we come after the holidays of course LOL....
