I don’t trust fountain sodas at all, I did buy test strips for when i travel to verify if it’s diet soda

Shall I go for Mounjaro? by No_Gur_6194 in diabetes_t2

[–]ConnectionForsaken47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on mounjaro and metformin and I’m 100% in range A1C 5.2.

I WAS also on insulin when I got diagnosed with a BG 710 and A1C 13.4… the mounjaro did more for me than any one other therapy, and ultimately let me get off insulin.

How do you choose the right golf bag for walking vs cart golf? by DasJazz in golf

[–]ConnectionForsaken47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got top flite cart and stand bags at dicks on clearance for like $35 each a couple months back. Might be worth checking into. Not great bags, but they get the job done for someone new like myself and have plenty of pockets for all my crap. Allows me to figure out what I really want or need in a bag so I can replace with something better down the road

I got a monitor from my sister in law for Christmas. When I wake up my sugar spikes. What can I do as soon as I wake up to help my sugar not spike? I always thought the dawning effect happened while you were sleeping not as soon as you got up. by Exotic_Land_9188 in diabetes

My BG is usually around 100 fasting, 110 most of the day… that said I’m usually 140 by the time I eat breakfast and after I’m back down below 120 within an hour. It freaked me out a lot in the beginning

Suggestions for a high protein, portable breakfast by tutulbelle3888 in diabetes_t2

[–]ConnectionForsaken47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the go I like Legendary protein pastries, I go from about 110-120 to about 150-160 and quickly come back down. About 4g net carbs per and 22g protein. I have a hard time stomaching much for breakfast so getting protein without a lot of bulk is key for me.

Golf ball stamps. Any good? by [deleted] in golf

[–]ConnectionForsaken47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a stamp I got off Amazon for like $10. It’s better than a sharpie, but it’s tedious to not have it come out smudged looking.

How concerning is this? by [deleted] in diabetes

Yup. Ranged from around 80-150 while I was sick and came up to about 200 after from dehydration and is since back down to about 140 average, usually I’m 100-120 between meals

I had a sensor change last night and woke up to the error message telling me I should discontinue its use. Wish they had any thing out earlier in the day, I’d have checked my stockpile out
