I am. Type 2, last a1c was 8.2%. That was the first of July. I've starting taking it seriously and the only way I can manage my blood sugar is to ride regularly (or walk), eat 5-6 low carb little meals a day, and obsessively chart everything. It's going well as long as I write it all down and test my blood glucose before and after every meal.

After reading a lengthy thread on a diabetes forum about low carb diets I'm considering going lower carb. (right now it's 25-35 grams per meal, except for the pre-ride shake which is about 50g which covers me for a 1-2hr ride)

Anyway, I'm wondering what other diabetic cyclists do. Specifically type 2.

(also, just so you know, I always have my glucose monitor on rides, and something carby in case I go low. Hasn't happened yet!)

Thanks,
