Hello.
There are my questions to learn.
Before drinking the water vessels what was the gluco level?
As you can see on the screen of Xdrip of that day, it had 150 glycemia.So before leaving, I administered a dose of 2 units of fast insulin Humalog Junior.If my blood glucose level is in the range of up to 120, I apply 1 fast insulin unit Humalog Junior.
The snacks, and the bars I see that they carry a lot of sugar and a lot of HC.
so, they are almost pure sugar.As I have the Garmin 520 plus with the glycemic value that is updated every 5 minutes connected to XDrip, I base my decisions in that value.If I see that it starts to lower very fast, consume one or half snacks while still pedaling and I check the glycymic curve.Instead, if glycemia is stable and the descent is very slow, I just take a bite from a bar.All this depends on the glycemia levels that are marking.
How often do you take the HC?
There is no fixed schedule to eat;It all depends on my glycemic level during the route and the difference between the penultimate and the last reading.I adjust to this difference.In some routes, barely consumption food, while in others, like everything, the key is to learn to eat testing.If, for example, you consume a snack room, you must observe how much your glycemic level increases.Use this information as a reference to handle possible sugar declines in the future.
With everything you have taken after 5h to 74 glucose?
74 of glycemia usually seems like a good value, although then you have to adjust well between the rapid and slow insulin, taking into account that the slow insulin I inject it to me15:30 in the afternoon.
In my case, (I do BTT, with 50/60km), I go out in the morning to 140 gluco (there are days of everything) with slow insulin, and 1 te.
I leave the exercise with 1 fast unit with glycymic value up to 120 If I am highest I upload the amount of fast, the slow one click at 15:30afternoon
At the time I am at 220 approx, and at the 2nd hour at the stop to drink Cafè, I usually be at 150/170.
I take coffee with milk, 1 banana, and at half an hour I climb almost 280 gluco.
milk is not suitable for me due to its high fat content and that can lead to glycemia quickly, my stomach during exercise does not like having anything aboutfat less milk.As for banana, it only consumes it on routes of more than 80 km.In any case, it is crucial to review your glycemia before eating it and adjust the amount as necessary.
After 4h approx, I get home about 160.
I don't know if this is fine.
A level of 160 is acceptable, but my goal is to reduce and normalize blood glucose.Therefore, what I would do with that 160 glycemia is to manage a quick insulin dose to lower the level a bit.Then, consume some protein, such as a soy drink or a protein milkshake, to make sure my blood glucose is normalized before eating.I always check the evolution of the glycemic curve to adjust my approach as necessary.
Another doubt, I try to bring the gluco data at the Garmin Però many times it is disconnected, and I get a rat in the middle, without sending data.I have caused different options to take it visible in the Garmin, and I do not finish having it.What can you tell me?
solution to this cluster free freeyle 2 through bubble + xDrip travel is the best according to my experience. Since I started using the direct connection between xDrip and free freeyle2,I have experienced disconnections during my routes.Before, I used the Bubble + XDrip to connect with free freestyle 2, and never had disconnection problems.However, as the bubble has broken, I am now using the direct connection.When I notice that the glycemia values on the Garmin screen or at the my band are irregular or the numbers have a scratch of disconnection, I try to stop and reconnect the device.Before 2020, I made my routes without free freestyle and managed everything based on sensations, which resulted in total lack of control, although I kept doing sports.
