How Technology Gets Me Moving

Last year, I lost 40 pounds through a YMCA "weight challenge."

I am starting up again to lose that last 10-12 pounds. Nothing new

-- regular exercise at the Y and much healthier eating. To keep me honest, I write everything eaten in a little spiral tablet. Tallying up

each Y team member's success weekly by PC motivates!

I like the idea of reminding folks to take insulin. Many of us with diabetes are on a number of medications and having a reminder (via e-mail, or text message) seems like a useful way to help us keep track of it all. And Google calendar offers both options at present.

I wear an insulin pump and I've got it setup to beep me if I forget to take insulin for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. That's saved me several times from having a meal and forgetting to take insulin to cover it.
