I love my garmin vivoft. There are several styles. I never take mine off for the shower and the battery is good for a year.

what is your fasting schedule now.

I take it at bedtime. I use the liquid in some water. I has lowered my morning fasting blood sugar.

I agree about the insulin resistance. I have been using fasting more in an attempt to reduce mine. I am sure mine has been high for many, many years and now I have prediabetes and high blood pressure.

Thanks for posting this.

Thanks @Dragonwolf.

Auntstephie, thanks for posting this. I just got it free. Look forward to using it. Billie Ann

please send me an invite. have been reading but not posting a lot.

I would be using it as a supplement. Perhaps I will try MCT oil. I appreciate your comments. I always appreciate your comments and learn a lot from you. Thanks.

The Medicare is the one that pays for therapy, at least that is the way it was with my father in law. You could talk to the social worker at the home and see what she says. Hope you can…

great discussion. SunnyBunny has a clear understanding of DKA thanks

I am trying it too. I had weight gain over the holidays. Good luck.
