Pump training is done!

And...I feel so amazing it's ridiculous!

My CGM is really showing just a road with a few little hills and bumpy parts, unlike the mountain/valley range it was before.

I didn't know I would feel this good with my BGs stable, it's so amazing!

xD I honestly don't think I've had this much energy/felt this nice since before my diagnosis...it really is like I'm coming out of a haze~

:3 I just really hope my A1C reflects some of this awesomeness at my nex...

Went to the endocrinologist today! My diabetes is doing wonderful, which is my main goal.

:) What is the point of weight loss if the rest of my health is a piece of crap?

Alright, so here's how it's going to go for me for the first while.

Yeah, definitely having trouble with my blood sugars.

One work out and a little less food intake and I got to have like 7 low blood sugars over the past two days!

What fun! I'm totally over my calorie target already!

Anyways, I'm not going to get obsessive and work out for like 5 hours to fix it, like I would've done in the past.

I'll try to reach it and if it gets screwed up for my diabetes, my diabetic health comes first.

Will see how the doctor tweaks my insulin rates...

Keep having low blood sugars.


This is inevitable when reducing your food intake and dealing with insulin. Good thing I am being supervised with logs and everything for my insulin pump training--I'll get everything handled together at one time.


Not going to be tough on myself for passing the calorie target when I am already feeling physically bad...

Just have to figure out how to avoid passing it later/figure out how to structure my calories for lows....
