little tip from me

this is just a little tip from me to all diabetics

i learn from my diabetes everyday
and today i have learnt that it is a bad idea eat -> take insulin shot -> run
it leads to a massive sugar level dip

had dinner with friends and also dessert (ate cold rock banana ice cream + smashed kit kat and mini m&ms)
then took a shot based on the carbs
head home; it was pretty late, so i decided to jog home (about 5mins jog)

got home
showered, checked sugar levels; 4.3mmol/l

hope it won't drop any more; super tired and if i eat anything now i would just puke my guts out..
gonna head to bed soon and pray for the best.
have already prepared glucose tablets next to me, just in case i wake up in the middle of the night with a mighty hypo

tip for the day -
its good to calculate ur insulin dose base on the carbs u eat, but bare in mind insulin works more effectively when u use your muscles...
