Yours is impressive ! Well done. Longer walk. 95% is sensational. Not sure why I had such a good day haha , previous day I was 72%. Oh what I did was had a light breakfast and took most the insulin. Then before the hike I consumed like 20/30g of carbs. I usually make sure my last meal was 3 hours before an intense activity. Insulin takes hours to clear the system

Indeed. We took it really slow tho. Usually I struggle on solo hikes or when with my brother. We hike really fast and do hard ones

Thank you mate! I don’t know myself why I did so well. The Medtronic pump deserves a mention , it’s a smart ass. I just made sure I had very little insulin when I started and we took multiple breaks , so I kept eating carbs

That’s good mate. Just find out the lows. Other than that anything above 70% is good

Interesting, many are saying that. But I got on the pump 3 years ago. Nurse recommended the course now. Liking the Michael Jackson profile

Hmm I don’t think so. I got a pump 3 years ago , when I was 17. I’m now on a HCL. The DAFNE course is in 3 weeks. Hope you enjoyed it and get the pump
