Smoothies!

Welcome Back!
Well I can only apologise for my absence: uni has swamped me and I have so many side project on the go, there's no time to sleep!
I will admit, I've fallen off the exercise bandwagon recently. It's so miserable outside the last thing I want to do is exercise! But I know I must...
The good news is my hbA1c's are at 8 which is the best they've ever been. They could be improved, but at least I'm doing something right!
Now I HAVE been to the gym a few times...and you know what the most annoying thing is?!

Post-workout hypos. So tricky to manage! But I've found a trick or two to combat these nasty things.

Post-workout smoothies! Not the shop bought, packed full of sugar kind, but the all natural diabetic friendly kind. I've included a website below with some suggestion, which should combat the effects of exercise, while intaking minimal calories, and avoiding huge sugar spikes.  Hope you find these useful! Let me know if you come up with your own! x
