Sugars have been 92% in range (high 80s/low 90s below 10 is fairly usual for a good day), 2% low which is better than yesterday's 10! Highest sugar was 11.7

Average sugar is 6.7mmol/L with the above in consideration (was 7.4ish on tandem)

My programmed basal insulin total was 31units in the tandem to reach 88%ish in range with an average sugar of 7.7. Today my basal has been 21.7units - a low I don't think I've ever seen while on a pump

Total insulin usage for today has been 37.2units, whereas on the tandem I was averaging about 56.

How the hell is this box achieving not just similar but BETTER results with less insulin? Magic? Maybe it's magic.

I don't wanna be premature, I'm aware it could still go tits up but if this is how good it is on day 2 of the system learning me, without me faffing with it (I'm a chronic med-tech faffer), and when I had massive amounts of carb for tea, I'm looking forward to what it could do for me in the future. As soon as it's used to me I'm going to drop my target from 5.5 to 5.0 (I put it up last night after 5 hypos in a row that I couldn't keep up) and try and get more time within the 4-7 range (my last check with clarity I was 55%ish, I'd like that to be in the 70s or 80s)

I don’t post very often things about personal stuff and you probably will never see a photo of me here but it’s a bit different about our cat, Ypso.

Most of those photos were taken by my bf but I think I took few of them too but we don’t remember who took what. Doesn’t matter anyway. It’s just a little “appreciation post” because I love him so much. He’s my little ray of sun every day (well for my bf too but it’s strange to talk in his name even though I know he thinks the same hehe).

I’m just happy and lucky to have him. Few years ago I thought that I was about to loose him. He got some urinary stone and due to a lot of complications he had to undergo an urethrostomy even thought I wasn’t really sure about it but there was not much time for thinking and lot of chance for him to go thought it. And he did. It was 4 years ago and he gonna turn 8 next June. 

And all I wish for him is to continue to have an happy and healthy life as long as possible (but that’s what pet’s lover all wish for right ?)
