Not sure about you but the almond milk (3g carbs/100ml) doesn’t spike me. Semi skimmed milk would a lot which happens to be one of my favourite drinks The non-sweetened almond is undrinkable and I’d rather drink black (which is what I do mornings and evenings due to intermittent fasting)

Ok 200g is a decent amount, I’ve been a bit above that having had breakfast but I will stop but might still land at about 200g. I’m not going to go back down the low carb route for a while - I want to concentrate on getting back into a good fitness level, say half marathon level. I have my 1st...

That’s for all the replies. All good advice. Good to know it’s sound to keep going as I am but I would look to tighten as I become experienced in the future. Being technically minded and data driven I don’t think I’ll be at risk of burnout chasing my tail but I can see how it can become...

That’s really good going, do you try and stay low carb say below 120g or further? I don’t usually eat breakfast but as I have high cholesterol I’m having oats in the morning so it’s adding to my carbs per day. I’ll drop it next month sometime as I’m seeing my weight slowly creep up. (Also...

Wow quite impressive to stay that tight - something to aim for! In time. Yes newly diagnosed, I’m not getting stressed about it just interested in a general concensus here. I’m putting in quite a bit of time and effort early on so that with experience the management of this barely registers...

Hi all, Since coming out of hospitable last month the DSN set limits of 3.9 -> 10.0 as my target range. I’ve been pretty pleased with my % time in range and then realised it’s at the widest range possible What does everyone use? The 3.9 I’m ok with but thought the 10.0 might be a little high...

Hi all, I would really appreciate some guidance here, I bought some typeonestyle patches but aren’t impressed at all, they just catch the libre2 adhesive (I didn’t recognise that when buying), my wife bought some that cover the whole sensor which looks reasonable but do not know the brand, they...

Not sure if this is suitable for you but I’m finding higher fat/protein I.e. meat plus oats or other carbs gave me a high value well into the next morning, however, I assume this encourages weight gain. However I think your proposal of changing to a pen that delivers 0.5 sounds a better idea...

Hi, I’ve been diagnosed for about 3 weeks and have been experiencing odd cramps in fingers and feet. Is this something others have experienced with T1D or only when newly diagnosed? My BG is typically in range, diet is quite good and fitness I guess on average not bad. Oh and drinking more...

Hi @Antje77 , No it out a dampener on the hol memory tbh but we’re trying to not let it ruin what was a great holiday, we still did everything including several dive trips. I have dependants and I’ve had to come into this with a Ill get on top of this attitude. Thanks for the link and reply...

Hi, Just to introduce myself here on this forum. 3 weeks ago I came home from Turkey feeling rough, no sleep for 30hrs due to travelling, driving 2hrs from the airport and unbeknown having covid I went to the doctors to be told to go to A&E, 4 days later in hospital having recovered from the...
