Hi Alisha. I work in IT so like you I spend all day in front of a screen pushing buttons although I had the “advantage” of already having diabetes when I started. Couple of thigs that might help
- Set alarms to look at your CGM. Eventually you won’t need them.
- If you have an iphone add the widget to for your CGM or pump to MacOS Add and customize widgets on Mac - Apple Support
- There are CGM display devices that put your number on a dedicated screen. New CGM Display "Device"
- Set your CGM or pump alarms to values when you need to take action, not the usual 70 and 180 when its already too late. How to Improve Your Time in Range Solely by Adjusting Your Alerts and Alarms! - Taking Control Of Your Diabetes®
- Start thinking about large amounts of work in more granular chunks to give you some control back over your schedule even if its just to accommodate a CGM check.
Personally I found a sit-stand desk helpful. You mentioned meal timing, when I was on a higher basal rate my BG would be crashing into lunch and dinner. Lowering it helped along with reducing breakfast carbs, and the desk, etc. Like with most diabetes things its never just one change.
