All good advice here. When I exercise I'll have a mid sized (20 ounce) G2 Gatorade. It's not the full sugar Gatorade but the lower calorie variety. It has about 11g of carbs and give me about 45-60 minutes of workout time before I start to crash. By "crash" I mean if I keep working out then I'll crash. If I stop before then I'm fine.

Like other said. Start off easy. You won't want to hit it hard because you'll be so sore the next day you won't want to continue. Plus, you need to see what your body does in reaction to exercise. I've found that when I start exercising after a break (a month or more) that my BG will be higher afterwards.

It takes about a week of regular exercise (3-5 times in the gym) for my BG to stabilize. After that it's more stable than usual and even if I don't get my carb ratio spot on that the spike won't be terrible.

Non exercise days I'll take 16u of Levimir at night (I take 16 in the morning and the same at night) Exercise days I'll lower it to 14-15 at night depending on how hard I worked out. If I run then it's 14u, if it's just a day at the gym, it's 15u at night. I exercise in the afternoon so if you are a morning person you'll need to adjust your long lasting insulin.

Ask your endo if you need specific instructions about dosing. My endo told me to cut back 1-2 units because I was crashing at night.

Exercise is the best thing you can do for your health. It'll be tough to keep to a regime and your BG will be a little wild at first. Stick to it and it'll be for the best. For times when I'm crashing mid run I'll take a GU gel. It's an instant 32g of carbs and works fast.
