Day three was not easy, my body is starting to react to insulin a little differently. I woke up at 5:30 with a blood sugar of 88 took 2.2 units of insulin and then ate two waffles and eggs. By 7:30 I was down to 62, usually I will stay right around 100. This pattern repeated at lunch. Again only two units but my blood sugar dropped an hour later. It could be from all the exercise or it could just be one of those odd diabetes days, only time will tell.
A quick summer thunderstorm pushed my start time back to 4:30 and made me change my route so I was closer to home just in case another storm popped up. To be perfectly honest I'm glad the storms were around, my body is starting to hurt a little bit. I can still go out and ride at a good pace but mentally and physically I'm starting to feel it. My legs are strong but for the first time in a long time I have that slight tired feeling. Mentally I'm not all there as we know but it is getting worse while on the bike. Towards the end of my ride I was thinking of a conversation I had with my brother in law and couldn't stop laughing. Just imagine seeing some guy on a bike going 20mph and laughing out loud while he goes down the road. If I was to see that I would say "What the $(*@^ is wrong with that guy?"
Tomorrow will be interesting to say the least, I'm nervous to see how my body reacts to insulin but as always I'm sure I'll be able to handle it. On the bike a "hilly" day is planned, my legs are not going to be happy.
