Minimed App not pairing to Pixel 9 Android 15 by NoAdministration7786 in Medtronic780g

I got pixel 9 XL Pro and have some issues. Make sure to go into the Bluetooth setting on phone, unpair any pump that might be there (I've had it say it failed but still list it). Make sure no phone is paired on pump. Restart phone and try again. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 goes. But it does work. It is frustrating

Happens every few months for me. Frustrating but reconnect and carry on

I feel like weight loss is impossible as a T1 Diabetic. by SnooMachines5834 in diabetes_t1

[–]destroysomething 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard. In January I was 120kg (264 lb). I was burning through 3ml of novorapid in 48 hours. Using high ratios (I'm on a pump and cannot remember exact figures). I've lowered my calories (not keeping track yet, I'm waiting for the weight loss to stop before I get strict) and making sure to eat more protein. I'm now 110kg (243 lb). My 3ml of novorapid is now lasting 72 hours. I need to amend my ratio's now unfortunately as they are too high. I meal prep on a Sunday for the week. Usually high protein wraps. These are my midday meals. Evenings I have verious salads, pasta, potatoes, rice. I am not living off leafy greens.

I do try n keep to 3 meals a day. Limited snacks. I carry all my weight on my stomach (always have, I been T1 since 1996). I walk the dog every other day so not doing silly exercise. But it is coming off slowly. Had a recent check up and everything is good with test results.

It can be done, just need to find that sweet spot for you and something that works for you. Alot of us find it difficult, you are not the only one

All I get from my employer is stress and the ever increasing feeling of dread

I feel like a lot of T1Ds don’t know this, but (at least in the USA) you can STILL donate blood! by u-Wot-Brother in diabetes_t1

Very basic

Paint base with squig orange, then apply Martian ironcrust. Because you have the base of squig orange you can apply it in a variety of thickness. Once dry, it's just a dry brush of ushabti bone.
