Goodbye 2020!

Happy New Year!  2020 was a bit of a wild ride.  I haven't done a good job of keeping up with this blog at all.  So over the next few days I'm going to do another big weight update for the remainder of 2020, plus look at goals for 2021.

But for today, I just wanted to make a note, mostly for myself, about snowshoeing.  I went snowshoeing today with a temporary basal of I believe 65%, starting two hours before I went out.  When I started snowshoeing, my glucose was 5.7 mmol/L.  It hovered around there just fine (went up to 5.8, then stayed at 5.7) until we started doing some bigger hills, at which point I went low.  So I think next time I'm going to need to do a smaller temp basal (maybe 60% or 55%?) and try to start off a little higher so I have more of a cushion in case my glucose suddenly drops like today.
