It happends to the best of us, sometimes we are so fed up with thinking diabetes that you put it in the back of your mind. I was on insulin for about 9 months when I was diagonsed. After taking care of myself I completely got off the insulin. I thought I was “cured”. 3 years laters and the same bad habits I wound up with uncontrol blood glucose. I love to be on a bicycle but during the 3 years of off insulin I dont remember being on the bike much. I guess cause I had a small child and sometimes you tend to focus more on the kids than on yourself. So what I learned is that I had to pace myself on the way I managed things. As far as excercise, find something that you like to do that will get you moving. I sometimes go back to my childhood days to try to find something that will get me moving. I get on my bike, I even bought a longboard. My son just started skating and i would just sit and watch him. Then the inner child came out and I decided to get off the sideline and skate with him. I am older and more fragile but I rather be on two feet than sit there thinking that every little complication will get me. So find something that makes you happy to get moving, roller skate, bike, play wii sports. Moving is addictive. Once you complete something you want to go to the next thing. I sometimes play wii boxing and before I know it my bloold levels are in the low 70’s. Go figure. Take care
