  • Monday report: did a 2 mile bike ride. At mile two the back tire deflated, again. Walked bike 2 miles back home. Tuesday: no exercise completed thus far - bike repair to happen tonight, so hopefully I'll be back in motion tomorrow.

  • Exercise plan: Since I just relocated to a new state with my husband I am without a job I find myself with a bit more time on my hands. So I decided that bicycling 2 miles (or, 4 miles round trip) to the grocery store to get stuff to grill in the evening was a good plan. I started this on Wednesday (8/17) and have pretty…

That made a big difference. Exercising has…

Prior to the pump I was doing a MDI (multiple daily injection) plan and on a long lasting insulin called Lantus and the fast acting insulin Novolog and had ended up gaining about 10 lbs…
