What I have been doing to better manage my diabetes.

The thing I have been doing to better manage my diabetes is
1. I keep a log of all my BG's and what time it was and the many carbs I had with it.

2. Keep a food log of all the stuff I eat and the carbs and than I add the carbs toghther and program them in

3. I keep a log of all my meals and how much carbs I had that meal.

When I want to my Endo last friday...I showed them my log book and every thing. They told me that I should keep doing what I was doing. My A1C was 6.1. they lowered my basel rate.

Get to see my Endo Today!!

Today I was up at 5:45am Cause I had a Appoint with my endo at 8:30am. We were in there for about 2 hours at the endo offices. My Endo told me that I was good a great job, But They lowered my basel rate cause I have had a lot of lows.

My A1C was 6.1 which is great....they are also happy to see that I am keeping a log book. I have been trying to do that for years but everytime I dont keep with it. But this time I stayed with it and I had almost 2 mouths for logs for him and When I go in Oct I will have the rest of july and the 3 mouth leding up to seeing him again.
