Rediscovering My Diabetes

Dear Beatriz

Go do the ambassador thing, you will be the most realistic example much better than a diabetic who runs a marathon every month. Knowing and doing are two different things. I have not been able to loose even one ounce. I am extremely insulin resistant and taking 100 units of external insulin per day so weight loss is impossible. I am thinking of asking the Doctor for a C-peptide test and if there is some insulin production to really cut the external insulin a lot and the devil who cares were the BG goes. If you have an A1c of 6.2% without too much effort that is good. Not sure if stressing yourself out with extreme measures is a good idea. Remember until we find out how to treat insulin resistance adding extra stress is known to really increase it.
