I have been running, walking or cycling every day this summer and it's had a positive effect on my blood sugars. I hadn't had a reading above 200 all month until last evening before dinner. I promptly went out and punished my pancreas for not behaving.
I had dinner and took my insulin then went out for a punishing 6-mile ride. Punishing in the sense that I hammered whenever I could, keeping it in a gear that would require my legs to continuously pump hard. By 9 p.m., I was at 70 and treated myself to a little ice cream, which got me through until morning when I woke up in range.
I file this one under the "take the bull by horns" department.
