A lot of times in sports for whatever reason one team will always defeat another. For instance the Denver Broncos were 7-1 vs the Cleveland Browns from 1980 until 1990. Including 3-0 in the playoffs. What does that have to do with diabetes? My diabetes will always lose to my work. No matter what I do I truly believe that I will always have lows while working.
Today I closed that gap just a little bit. I knew that I would be active all day long, I had extra Gatorade with me, extra food and a soda just in case I went below 60. My goal was to end the day with the soda unopened, that goal will have to wait until tomorrow. I opened the soda at 2pm, it was one of those lows where I did not need to test, I just knew I was low. I had a low just before lunch as well but I was able to fight off that low with an apple juice and some Smarties.
It is crazy how paranoid we can become with our blood sugars. All morning I was waiting to feel low, as the time passed and my pump didn't beep I became happier. Today was a good day, I want tomorrow to be a great day however. I want to end the day with an opened can of soda. I'm tired of being the Cleveland Browns, I want to be the Denver Broncos!!
