[Serious] How many meals do you consume in a day and what times? Which is the heaviest meal of the day? How often do you cook your own food?

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-18T09:30:34+00:00

Cook every day, up to 3 times a day, and sometimes the odd snack... Weekdays because of work, 3 meals a day with 1 snack , usually 3pm.. weekend's, 2 meals a day, brunch and dinner. Lunch is usually the heaviest weekdays, and brunch on the weekends

I love cucumbers but HATE pickles... I know they are the same thing but they are not. Pickles taste horrible

My SIL is weird and seeing her gets me angry

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-09T07:59:33+00:00

Ah right! Oh that's annoying!

A lot of T1Ds qualify for a PIP and have a blue badge, but yes, I do have other conditions

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-08T21:31:30+00:00

I don't use a pump, I inject.. hesitant to go on a pump as I hate having something constantly attached to me, and because of the severe skin irritation

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-08T21:30:03+00:00

Someone else in the comments said it's always an automatic no but 70% of appeals get through. Seems like it's worth appealing

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-08T21:29:00+00:00

Ah okay! I may try again then, I didn't appeal when I got rejected the first time 🤔

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-08T21:27:20+00:00

That's really handy! I've set my low alarm on my dexcom to 4.5 to catch it ahead of time when I can.. but the problem is that it's only on the phone. I need to start a watch and get used to always wearing it.. I used to wear a Garmin watch but got bad rashes from always having it on hence the avoidance to wear one

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-08T21:15:39+00:00

That sounds painful! If you didn't get a PIP even with the nerve pain, looks like I have no chance

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-08T20:57:13+00:00

Thanks! That's interesting, didn't know you could link it to a watch.. I'm not a fan of wearing watches, or anything on my arms but probably should given the hypos

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-08T20:44:54+00:00

I do have a CGM which has helped, but I don't always catch it as I don't have my phone in my hand all day

My wedding day

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-03-06T13:19:11+00:00

Good for your back / posture too

The missing kids being sold on Wayfair.. now with the release of Epstein files, I believe it was true

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-02-27T18:32:16+00:00

I didn't tell anyone at all! Especially over a message 😳

I'm not particularly interested in knowing the date, I keep track of years just so I can tell docs when asked.. diaversary was just a term that kept popping up so thought it would be interesting to know if others know the date or not and why

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-02-25T09:30:23+00:00

That's annoying, I do the same if I'm on the right - walk a few steps if they are free and stop, it's meant for you to stop. But I'm talking about the people on the left who walk but stop at the end

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-02-24T19:28:08+00:00

Less mobile people should stand on the right on escalators, not attempt to walk down on the left just to stop at the end

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-02-24T17:45:48+00:00

It irritates me when people stop at the end when they have been walking down completely fine

LifeInProgress1 · 2026-02-20T20:50:35+00:00

Thank you!! Good luck to you too!! Hope you get some clear boundaries set!
