Just because you checked your blood sugar twice today does not mean you're doing well. You're doing better but "better" is relative. When you used to check your blood sugar on a roughly every other day schedule that was terrible so yes, twice a day is in fact better but still not good. You need to do it at least four times. Get your ass in gear. Besides. You were doing it roughly six times a day last week so technically you're doing WORSE.
Also, an a1c of 7.9 is not an excuse to slack off. Yes, that is better. However, "better" is STILL relative. The way in which the word "better" works has not changed since the previous paragraph. I know it USED to be 9.3 but 7.9 is still not GOOD. It's just better and better clearly does not mean anything for you because you are a terrible diabetic! Test your blood sugar and stop forgetting to take your symlin and stop failing to bolus for your food.
Coming Soon (once my cold meds are no longer making me completely incoherent): Symlin is awesome and I don't know why no one told me about it sooner.
yeah on progress.. down to 7.9 from 9.3 is awesome.. but normal is under 7 so you are still not normal:) But we already knew that!!
