Technology Ruling Your Day?
Today I am sharing an unusual video. Because as you can see, I’m not dressed to be presentable because I just got off the bike.
Being type 1 and having all this technology on me, rules my life. I got on the bike for a 30 minute session, and I had a mini can of Sprite, 90 calories. I could only ride 20 minutes now because my blood sugar is falling as we speak. So is it better to know that, or to go through it and find out later?
Technology can rule your day, they can be a bad thing or a good thing depending on how you look at it. Long term, no doubt it's a good thing; it’s the short term daily things, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, that’s the hard part. Especially when there’s so much technology. I mean, anybody that is married to a type 1 diabetic can tell you they are sick of alarms going off at night, yes I know that. All we can do is prepare for the best way we can, and that technology kind of helps with that. But I’m just saying, think about it, maybe sometimes ignorance is bliss.
Is technology ruling your day? Reach out and send me a message, I'd love to hear!
