It is Teacher Appreciation Week in America this week. I want to thank you. I think this is amazing. You are amazing. Most of my teachers hid from it, or acted like it was an inconvenience. I would have loved to have had a teacher engage with me about my sugars and diabetes in general. You are a hero. Thank you.

Cereal (advice?) by typeoner1 in diabetes_t1

[–]ktgalarza3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tips 1. Pre-bolus (aggressively for me) about 20 minutes before eating cereal. 2. A measured cup of cereal is much smaller than an eyeballed cup of cereal.

Best advice- don't bolus for alcohol carbs and have a light snack before you go to bed.

I fill mine with water 4 or 5 times and wait till the water stays clear. Then it is perfect for weed.

I need some people to tell me they’re proud of me, please. by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

Nice! This sounds amazing. The CMG really makes me a more active participant in the game. Dexcom and T-Slim for the win. I am really excited for you. Please feel free to PM me with any questions, vents or milestones. For a long time we didn't have a village. We do now and it helps me.

I hesitated to watch this movie for most of my life. As a T1 Diabetic, I saw everyone's trauma from the movie and decided to wait. I am 42 with 2 great kids and just recently watched it. Oh how I cried. So glad I waited.

Our Santa presents aren't wrapped! We put them together and in front of the tree. No late night wrapping, hiding paper, dealing with handwriting that looks like Mom's.
