When I was healthy I also had poor eating habits I used to eat a chocolate bar and a cooldrink for the whole day. but the days when I ate more made up. But with diabetes I easily loose 1 or 2 kg a day

Before diabetes I used to brush everyday even twice a day. After I had diabetes for 3 years I stopped caring because I felt like diabetes is going to kill me anyway.

On average I brush 2 times a month I can't even remember when I started doing this my teeth still look ok but my gum line has receded and my teeth have been loose for years especially after getting diabetes

Before I got diabetes I was always thin but healthy strong and very active running and cycling, maybe that's why I'm still quite sensitive to insulin

How often do diabetics have to brush their teeth I brush mine like twice a month and all my teeth are loose and my gum line is receding

I mean sometimes I take for example 2 more humalog but then it's higher than I estimate sometimes I take 1 unit and then it's lower than I thought it would go

Cycling usually brings levels down if there is lantus or humalog in the body but I never inject humalog before I once injected 3 humalog before cycling and I almost died had to drink 3 litres of cooldrink.

I mainly just eat brown bread sometimes even just 4 slices for the day sometimes 1 egg and some meat... I never eat fruit or vegetables
