I am still waiting for the emailed photos from the retinal scan people - probably my biggest a-ha moment of FFL - so that I can blog about everything I thought about, but in general, I can't stop thinking about standard deviation (a takeaway from both the retinal scan and Damiano's APP presentation) and I've been thinking about all of the small changes I can make to improve mine.<br /><br />Also, I drank a lot less coffee in Florida because it was a good 1000 steps roundtrip to go refill my tumbler from my room. (Haha) It made me realize I don't need so much at home.<br /><br />And also, also, YES, we didn't get two words together. Sorry. :( Just another reason I need to come visit the bay area again.Melissa Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06747902932015381590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605058834859215403.post-69310921023871708002013-07-23T06:53:46.021-07:002013-07-23T06:53:46.021-07:00Hard for me to cut coffee as it has replaced desse...Hard for me to cut coffee as it has replaced desserts. :)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605058834859215403.post-81249105529351295872013-07-22T23:32:16.487-07:002013-07-22T23:32:16.487-07:00Ok I m curious is your new goal part of a session ...Ok I m curious is your new goal part of a session take-away? <br />Why the change?<br />Also on a side note - Im sorry I didn't stop and chat with you when we were both in Florida. It is a huge regret of mine. I kept thinking there would be more time. I would see you and your beautiful kiddos and be on my way from one place to another and think "I need to stop and visit" but crazy is as crazy does and before I knew it the conference was over and everyone was headed back to the real world. <br />Can we get a do-over. I want to squeeze your littles cheeks. :( <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00016314775466237961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605058834859215403.post-12144558986691241792013-07-22T20:27:54.925-07:002013-07-22T20:27:54.925-07:00your coffee looks so yummy. so creamy. yum yum yum...your coffee looks so yummy. so creamy. yum yum yum.<br /><br />katyhttp://bigfootchildhavediabetes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605058834859215403.post-24557962283059633922013-07-22T18:40:26.295-07:002013-07-22T18:40:26.295-07:00I have cut back on my coffee intake (for now) but ...I have cut back on my coffee intake (for now) but I do LOVE the taste of coffee. Coffee ice cream? OMG, yes please!!! I think its harder for me to cut back in the winter actually. It's so cold in my office and gets dark earlier that come December I am excited to finish lunch to make more coffee. Good luck of your mission! You can do it! xo surfacefinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15039482998776322391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605058834859215403.post-17619049698579668352013-07-22T17:40:36.499-07:002013-07-22T17:40:36.499-07:00I have a caffeine issue as well but mine is combin...I have a caffeine issue as well but mine is combination of tea, coffee, and diet coke. I can drink them all day if I am not careful but thankfully I am also good about drinking water as well.Tarrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10547926811068847574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605058834859215403.post-37124289823064161082013-07-22T11:30:58.367-07:002013-07-22T11:30:58.367-07:00I've gone cold turkey a few times (including o...I've gone cold turkey a few times (including one for approximately 35 weeks...and after the recovery room and seeing her in the NICU, my husband brought me a Diet Coke) and it's tough. Some experts have talked about how large amounts of caffeine can impact blood sugars but I tend to push the limit.

And: my night-time rumbly tumbly has gotten WAY better. May be the caffeine, may be the acid in the cola, may be a complete coincidence.

You and I drank about the same amount per day. It doesn't seem to effect my bg (T2) but I just recently read that drinking too much coffee can keep you from losing weight! That's my goal, to see if cutting back will get me past this weight plateau I'm languishing upon. Good luck to the both of us!Kate Cornellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14434380979727365103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8605058834859215403.post-83006848515009883222013-07-18T08:56:35.376-07:002013-07-18T08:56:35.376-07:00I don't drink as much as that, I try to limit ...I don't drink as much as that, I try to limit myself to 2 cups/day (but I don't regulate the size of said cup...) The point of my comment though: I also have a hard time remembering to bolus in the afternoon! Why is it easy to remember to bolus in the morning with NO caffeine in my system and harder in the afternoon when you know there is actually caffeine working somewhere in there?!Brileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00313347775573807481noreply@blogger.com
