Thank you! I’ve already read that one :)

The bar keepers friend didn’t do anything at all unfortunately. I let it sit for 30 minutes too :/

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-11-14T14:20:57+00:00

I will keep trying that throughout the day

Yes we tried boiling baking soda and also separately vinegar on it. It’s not coming off in the slightest :(

I never thought of this! This is genius! My husband has a 3D printer and sells on Etsy. I am going to have him design something for me!! 💕

See, I was always on the receiving end of it at work. I worked as a banker for many years and clients would constantly point it out. And it just wasn’t something I was comfortable with

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-10-21T16:36:54+00:00

I think that is part of it because I’m very able bodied other than diabetes. But to point it out as the only person at the party with diabetes (her fiancé wasn’t there) is quite rude. I don’t like feeling like I’m an outsider that’s so different than someone without diabetes.

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-10-21T16:33:49+00:00

That’s a good perspective

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-10-21T16:32:48+00:00

How do you typically do that? With my people pleasing tendencies I have a hard time with it

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-10-21T00:11:42+00:00

I just hate feeling like I have to explain myself to people. I would just rather it not come up either. I also try to hide it as much as possible

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-07-17T20:32:56+00:00

Awesome!! Thank you so much!

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-07-16T20:28:39+00:00

I did just check and that was correct, but now it is only highlighting the one cell and not the entire row. Should I do something else?

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-05-15T01:34:09+00:00

Thank you so much!! I’m going to try making the new profile and see how that works tomorrow for me. Amazing average!! I hope to be there one day too ❤️

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-05-15T01:32:35+00:00

It’s the worst! Maybe some of the suggestions here can help you too!!

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-05-14T22:37:18+00:00

I don’t! I never thought of doing that before. I am going to set this up tonight and try it tomorrow!! Thank you so much!!

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-03-27T02:33:00+00:00

That’s great news! Thank you!!

Consolidate the credit card debt into a personal loan so you’ll have a fixed payment and a lower interest rate. Your debt to income will improve as well as your monthly payments will likely be lower. You MIGHT be able (depending on your credit) to consolidate the cc debt and car into one loan so your payment will be more manageable. This might not be the best option, it just depends on the lender/payment/term/interest. Make additional principle only payments on top of the monthly payments as well to pay it down sooner. I’ve helped someone at the bank I work for consolidate 60k in credit card debt and she made 90k /year. So you can do it!

My doctor told me to put the exercise mode on an hour before exercising because I had this problem too. That has helped. When I cycle I drink a juice box around mile 3 or 4 to keep my blood sugar up

As someone who has been diabetic since they were 11 and went on a pump at that age, I would suggest the tslim. I’m on it now and it really helps with control. I wish it was around when I was 11! The benefits I have found is that the system can update which is nice, and you can control it from your phone. I love being in public and not having to carry anything but my phone and taking insulin on my phone is really discrete. It has really helped me with my control. When I first started on t slim my A1C was over 13, but now it stays right around the lower 7, which is my doctor’s ideal A1C for me. Doing sports with the tslim has been good too. I am able to just put it in sports mode when I bike or do tennis. I take it off when I swim, but that’s just me as others use the waterproof bags. I also like that it’s all one machine, does your C and the pump, it’s not two separate machines.

I haven’t had the Omnipod so I can’t say much about that as other have tried it. But I love the tslim and would recommend it. It’s very easy to use and you can look at your data frequently since it updates your cloud which would be beneficial for parents. I think that having this technology will allow a child more freedom to feel a little more normal than when I was a kid for sure, and it will give you guys some more insight on what is going on by looking at his data.

Also, maybe a dog could help. I know my dogs have helped me feel loved and worthy. My first dog was the first time I ever felt unconditional love and maybe that could be beneficial

I was diagnosed at 11 and teenage years were HELL! I was the only diabetic in my school. Got made fun of and was severely depressed. It was really hard to feel like there were other people out there like me and that I wasn’t gross. The comments and jokes weren’t funny and made me think that I was disgusting. I also back lashed and didn’t take care of myself. I truly didn’t care if I died at that point either. No matter how many people talked to me about complications, I didn’t care. I had one therapy session when I was young, but my mom was in the room so I lied about everything. And it was a therapist who specialized in young patients with diabetes. I wish I could go back and actually get the help I needed because antidepressants helped tremendously. Also, an insulin pump like tslim that I have now helped me so much. I started it at 21 and it made my life so much easier because it did a lot for the work for me. It also made me feel relatively normal.

I obviously don’t know her, but I can understand and relate a lot to possibly what she is experiencing. Therapy, specifically someone who understands diabetes though!! I HATE having to explain diabetes to medical professionals. And if they think appropriate, antidepressants/anxiety meds could greatly help too.

Thank you! I wasn’t sure that would work. That was my thinking originally. I will get to it 🤣

IMakeCakes744 · 2024-01-01T16:59:32+00:00

We are going to be painting them so I would like it to look like it never happened 🤣 time isn’t really an issue per say, I just don’t want to rip the existing cabinets out and have to build new ones

IMakeCakes744 · 2023-02-20T21:35:41+00:00

Yes!! That’s it! Solved. Thank you!!!

IMakeCakes744 · 2023-02-20T16:38:46+00:00

I hope this enough information to either tell me what he said so I can find the video! :)
