I just worked out yesterday's intake, very roughly, and I had under 700 calories - no wonder I feel drained today!! Yesterday was a bit of a one off, but I must pay more attention to what I'm eating, I'd lost a couple of kg but I'll go into starvation mode and shut down if that's my intake :oops:

Honestly, I've no idea, never have counted calories and probably wouldn't have the patience. I know it makes sense though ‍

I have a question: I'm T1 and have been eating keto style for 4 days now. BG is fantastic (I'm also closed looping) but I hit keto flu yesterday - checked ketones and they were around 1.4. My question is whether it's totally keto flu that's making me feel rough, or am I just not taking in...

I've tried it, but wasn't sure if it was an urgent problem, as the pump still works. May give them another call when I get home..

Hi there, don't know if anyone can help. My YpsoPump is not connecting to the MyLife App - tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, now I can't sign in - gets to 'sync to MyLife Cloud account' and just hangs up till it times out. Does anyone have any work around that might help? Fairly...

Success!! Thank you

Thanks Barry, I'll have a look around.

I've been using the Juggluco app with Libre 2 for about a week, no real problems. Had a minor issue with alarm settings so stupidly thought I'd uninstall then reinstall it. Unfortunately, it's been removed from the Google Playstore (thanks Abbott!). Any ideas for any other similar apps? Needs...

Thank you for this, it's hard to know which option is the best. I'll probably stick with my current Samsung for as long as it chugs along, then have another think about it.

Thanks Ellie, I'll give that a try :) and yes, there is a reader, but I'd rather keep to one bit of tech to carry around if possible.

Definitely! I experienced different patterns over the years, firstly my sugars went up the week before and dropped to normal when my period started, then years later my sugars stayed the same before my period but dropped when it started. You'll soon start to see patterns, if you're able to...

Hi everyone, I'm looking into trialling the Dexcom G6 (self funded), but I refuse to pay 300 quid for a reader when I can use my phone. But ... I've just checked the reviews of the Android version and they're really pretty poor, seem to be problems at the moment, which will doubtless be...

Hi, I'm type 1 (almost 50 years) and I've just tested positive on a lateral flow, waiting for PCR tomorrow. I initially thought it was a bad cold, runny nose, thumping headache, hot and cold spells, but no cough or especially sore throat. Today I can't taste or smell anything. I've been having...

Thanks very much to both of you, very interesting to see just how much people's mileage varies! I'm 2 years into the menopause, I'm using Evorel and Utrogestan - felt an immediate improvement in mood (mainly taking it for brain fog and mood swings, I've been taking antidepressants for years...

A question for any Type 1 ladies of a certain age. I recently started on HRT after much indecision, and overall feel a million times better. For the previous 3 weeks I'd been low carbing and had got fantastic results. Libre showed in target for over 90% of the time. This continued for a...
