Keep Your Eye on the Clock
|
Keeping your eating and exercise habits on a similar schedule day to day will help keep your blood glucose at healthy levels. Experts suggest these tips:
- Eat your meals and snacks at about the same times each day.
- Eat about the same amounts of food each day - don’t have a large lunch one day and a small one the next.
- Do not skip meals or snacks.
- Take your medicines at the same times each day. Your prescription will be specific, but, as a rule,
- take regular, NPH, or Lente insulin 30 minutes before you eat
- take Humalog insulin lispro just before you eat
- take diabetes pills before you eat.
- Exercise at about the same times each day.
