how are you guys even measuring blood sugar? are you on diabetic meds? I haven’t ever even seen a glucose meter, isn’t that just for diabetics?

I use a glucometer, I have been taking diabetic meds for awhile....less than a year, but long enough. When I diet for long periods, I do crash eventually. I had already cut back the meds, the only option now is to quit them all together.

Yes, it’s my little secret. I take medicine for blood sugar.

Anybody can buy one-I have one and most of the other people I know who hike in the woods carry one with them and they are not diabetic-just need to be aware not to get too low and do something all stupid alone in the woods and get hurt.
