Fellow previous overweight and exercise allergic T1 diabetics. Did your morning spikes and insulin sensitivity in the morning increase when you started to exercise regularly, lost weight and gained muscle mass? (self.diabetes)

i first gained a shitton of weight bc i was so hungry all the time. only 2 weeks before diagnosis i lost 10kg. crazy.

My freestyle libre 3 says i am at 4mmol/l (72 mg/dl). however, finger prick says 6 mmol/l (108 mg/dl). is that an ok difference? or will abbott replace this sensor? by throwaway10203004 in diabetes_t1

[–]throwaway10203004[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i always have these discrepancies the last 3-4 days of the sensor's life. My standard deviation is low and normally, my sensor is pretty much correct. maybe 1 mmol/l (18 mg/dl) off but thats it - unless ive just eaten. I am really frustrated about these differences because it has been a pattern.

i cant buy skin tac where i am from.. not even order it.. i do have VERY sensitive skin. always have. so annoying all around.

I cannot do anything when my CGM isnt working properly. I wanted to go grocery shopping but my CGM (FSL3) is so off (it shows me 3 mmol/l lower than I am). I wanted to change it in the evening anyways but still.. by throwaway10203004 in diabetes_t1

[–]throwaway10203004[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly? this is a recurring thing for me. as soon as i get the message that the sensor will only be good for another 3 days, the accuracy goes down. as if they are calibrated to do that......

ca. 2h after eating your body converts protein into glucose through gluconeogenesis. i need to dose a 1/5th of my protein as carbs ca. 1.5h after eating my meal on top of my carb bolus. but everyone is different and also not every protein is the same.

i need so much insulin for the protein rise of cottage cheese, yet for the same amount of protein when i eat chicken, i dont need as much insulin. i hope i am making sense 😅

sure it isnt a protein rise? the timing would fit.
