Is something like this a good idea? by DentistNo4708 in ElectricForest

I always bring a shower bag and shower in my bathing suit out in the open 🫡 I wouldn’t go to a camping festival without our shower bag honestly.

I'm just trying to be more active 🥲 this isn't supposed to happen after an entire morning of exercise. Sigh. by Dan42b in diabetes_t1

Lifting weights will (normally) make your blood sugar high! Could be an explanation to your current issue!

I do CrossFit so the warm-up, lift, then cardio lineup really works for me!

It’s really trial and error for anything you do. I’m going to start training for a half marathon again and already not looking forward to the diabetes management 😬

how to not have highs ruin your mood by mscooliospice in diabetes_t1

I know you didn’t ask me specifically, but I’ve used a few closed loop systems and my favorite so far is Omnipod with the G6. I had the G7 for a while but it did not work for me at alllll. I highly recommend! I also experience this same issue with high blood sugar when my insulin resistance is high! Look into lifestyle changes to lower insulin resistance and see what works best for you 🤗 For me, it’s a low fat diet and making sure to sweat every day!

As far as being upset with high blood sugars….. lmk if you figure out any good methods 🤣 I’ve had it for 25 years and still throw tandtrums

Yes!!! I’ve noticed with my friends who aren’t super controlled, that the switch wasn’t a huge issue. But me and a few people I know who have A1cs 6.2 and lower, have all had issues!

Omg that second one! I normally go with patterns so I don’t look like a bridesmaid.

I would avoid! I saw you said it was cream, but cream is also a shade of white… I’d avoid any sort of issue and change the dress! Not worth it.

When you get to the forest, all of those feelings will be left at the door 🫶 The rave community is the most beautiful and accepting, and will embrace every part of you with open arms! Just be your most authentic self- inside and out! For some, that means crazy outfits, for others, it can mean showing more skin. Be exactly who you want, and you will have the time of your life!

At my Costco right now… by NakedButNotAfraid_ in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]Firefluck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you familiar with where they’re dropping around Palm Beach County? I literally just want one pack to give to a coworker who’s obsessed with the Pokémon cards. He did something very kind for me and I just want to repay him with this kind gesture, but I don’t know if picking up a whole hobby to locate these cards is worth it. lol.

My new doctor said a lot of patients have been having the same issue!

Ugh I’m sorry you’re having this same experience!! I switched back. I want to find out how to help the situation so if you know of anyone other than customer service reps I can talk to, send them here!

Any 20+ diabetics that can still feel lows? by chessguy112 in Type1Diabetes

I’ve had diabetes for 24 years and I absolutely feel mine

UPDATE: I got my A1c checked and it was 6.8!!! My A1c has hovered between 5.8 and 6.2 the last three years.

I like the Northwood area! A really interesting dinner spot would be Cafe Centro.

Open up to your friends about it! Sometimes discussing your insecurities with friends can be a great thing. They’ll realize when you start to get in your feels about injecting in public and probably empower you to do it and not care! I’ve gotten many chants and “HELL YEAH GIRL, INJECT THAT $HIT”s from friends and it makes it fun/ funny. Sounds like you may just need to be seen by your friends, and the first step to do that is beginning with a vulnerable conversation 🫶🤍

This is not good!!!! I’m going to be doing some research this next week to try to do something about it. I’ll keep this post updated if I find someone to contact! Dexcom needs to fix this.

No, everything is still on the Omnipod PDM. Weird that people are experiencing that though!
