I've seen a couple of photos of them put on the area just above the top of the breast, slightly to the side I think, towards the underarm. It might work for you, because it's an area where there'd be less movement during physical activity.

The choice of evening meal as an example, was only done because it was the easiest meal to describe, the method of avoiding spikes was not specific to that time. However, I eat a lot of fruit, because I'm a ten a day person for fruit and veg, all those bio-active compounds have probably served...

Shame about the wrong insulin, but well done for surviving the trip with all those 9-10 year olds.

Morning everyone, This being human and having type one diabetes, is all a bit too exciting for me sometimes. My trial and error game, when I'm trying to fix the midnight hypos isn't going too well. Tonight I'm going to try the last of the four options, lower novorapid for evening meal, and...

In other words, we're humans. :)

Good to see you back @smc4761 I was wondering where you were. A week of good blood sugars is very good progress, if you can do it once you can do it again. After a week the gremlin will always come and mess things up, it's just what happens. But you can chase the gremlin away and get back to...

I can't offer much advice on this, except, perhaps http://www.douaiabbey.org.uk/becoming-a-monk.html

Good morning everyone, with @karen8967 on holiday it's a bit quiet round here. Not much to report, I reduced my Levemir dose last night by 1 unit, because I just didn't want another midnight hypo, it was ok, I didn't get the hypo, but I needed to do a small correction at 2 am, and 6 am, which...

I'll take this opportunity, while we're talking about @Knikki wedding, to remind him that I did point out to him that one of the thread rules is that if you get married you have to post a photo so that we can all go ahhhhhh. It can be soft focus, vague outlines, taken from an obscure. or...

It was 100% below target, and now you've extended it even further. I tend to focus more on the above target, and worry less about hypos, they are mostly collateral damage in pursuit of keeping the above target down, in my view. Though don't want them to be too serious, but...........

@Knikki has casually thrown in this getting married thing a couple of times before, I think he casually mentioned looking at menus for his own wedding related event, a few weeks ago. But this very important life event doesn't get many mentions.

Morning all, new sensor was far too low yesterday, so I had to rely on finger prick tests. It was a day of quite good blood sugars, but because libre was showing me in the 3s all day, I had to rely too much on finger pricks, and had to do loads. Useful reminder of how much easier it is to...

Thank goodness for the good guys. Was she rescued by Flash? did he have jelly babies on him?

Morning all, new sensor last night, and it's not co-operating yet, reading too low, but blood sugars seemed to be ok overnight, not a beautiful straight, perfectly horizontal, line, though. As I write this it's just moved from showing 3s to 5.3, which is closer to reality, I think. Maybe it'll...

I think you're being a bit hard on yourself. 24 is an age when there are a lot of other things to think about, it's the point where you seriously start entering adulthood, and have a lot of things to worry about, like career, where you're going to live, relationships, and just sort of who you...

There's a 1 missing at the end of the number, this is it 02920 748251 link here http://www.cardiffandvaleuhb.wales.nhs.uk/clinical-research-facility That's my good deed for the day, little bits of incompleteness like that annoy me, and have to be corrected.

Sometimes people just want reference points, to give context if the OP asked for the information, then presumably that was why.

My target is 4 - 7.8 I've been in the range 84% last 7 days, but that was a very good week, it's not always that good. Over the last 90 days it's been 79% in target. How do you improve your ability to stay in range? I tend to micromanage mine with small corrections, but when I first started...

Morning, Blood sugar is fairly predictable at the moment, within the fairly wide parameters of predictability set for T1D. It's not doing anything very weird at the moment, so I'll take advantage of that for the short time it lasts. Last time I got a new blood glucose monitor I was given an...

That sounds good!
