I wouldn't say living with diabetes is a struggle I've had this for 20 some odd years now and I've been on insulin for at least the last 15. You get used to it and it's actually easier to make your insulin match your life than vice versa. When dealing with a constantly moving target being able to make changes on the fly is a good thing. Most of the time the day to day adjustments are a habit and I don't really think about them much. I'm on a pump so I can just push some buttons to change the insulin. But the past two weeks haven't been the norm for me what with being sick and making some changes to my diet. It doesn't bother me and I'm not complaining it is just part of my reality.
I'm glad I tried the refeed even if I most likely technically didn't need one right now. It was a good learning experience. It also goes to show that if I don't log I can pack away a lot of calories. Surprisingly enough my weight is actually down another pound today.
