Hello. Does anyone know of a resource that discusses exercise, pumps, and type 1 in detail?
I use the chapter in the "Pumping Insulin" book about exercise. I don't understand the use of glucose, glycogen stores, and fat sources as fuel and how this affects my bs. I feel that I am eating more calories than I am burning to prevent lows during exercise.
I exercise in the evenings (after dinner) for 45 minutes. In addition, I have been exercising for 15 minutes after I eat breakfast to prevent the post-meal spike. It helps my bs. Is this a bad idea? I am trying to get pregnant, so I am working hard to keep my bs normal.
