Bum and bottom of the back are also good alternative sites if he’s not using them at the moment, my thighs are getting too slender now. My tummy is hit and miss with bumps after injections as I’ve shrunk around my belly As well since going low carb.

Get some good old sambucol down ya Phil.. I swear by them when I’m not feeling too tip top and maybe getting a bug.

Good morning all you lovely people :) 5.3 for me today, off to a wedding today. Will be armed with my Lidl protein roll, emergency mini blocks of cheese and a couple of my homemade no added sugar peanut butter and Choco cookies just in case I get hungry. Then a little graze on the buffet...

Great stuff. What a fantastic number to have..

Always, always make sure you have some dextros to hand. They are a god send. Jelly babies used to be my go to hypo treatment but have returned to the trusty dextros. So easy to dose once you know how to treat a hypo. Also very good at not causing a spike after as you only take what you need.

Hi @lalacakez ive noticed a few of your posts this morning. Some are quite concerning, you seem like you have the drive to change your diabetes. I noticed what you are eating also on one of your posts. If you want to lose weight and gain good control of your diabetes check out doctor Bernstein’s...

Depending on what approach you are following snacking inbetween isn’t really advised unless your sugars are dipping, that means your out of balance with your insulin or meds or not eaten enough at your last meal. A proper balanced meal with enough protein and carbs will keep you energised...

6.3 for me this morning @ 0600. Slept threw the whole night. Nice 2u of novorapid and a bit of toast of London to wake my brain up happy with a bit of comedy.

Good morning all, 4.9 @ 0547 for me this morning. Wonder if we still have the snow from last night. Too dark to see out my window at the mo. I hope you all have a lovely week peeps. ;)

I’ll second that, I’m slim don’t need to loose any weight. Type one and insulin dependent, have been following a low carb lifestyle now for 7 months. I use dr Bernstein’s approach and if anything I’ve gained more lean muscle, I am stronger, faster in the pool and on my bike, loads more stamina...

It will be a shock to the system, at least it has been picked up on and you got the right medical care needed. Make sure you come back and introduce yourself properly if you haven’t already. This site takes a lot of the pressure off being diabetic and the info here is priceless and saves so much...

5.1 at 6.26am looking forward to a nice relaxing day today.Yesterday was back st swimming. Was thinking about that swim 22 for diabetes U.K. and it’s a hell of a distance. I’d need at least 2 visits a week and slog it out hard. Something definitely to think about. I hope you all have an...

That’s the same pen I use. I have a spare I could send and probs say I lost one and get it replaced. Because they should be free to you also. We live in the same county. Pay the same taxes. That sounds like a joke though. That’s disgusting, I would not be sitting with any rep from a pharma...

I will be ringing his secretary later to see if I can get in and see him. He’s helped my family in the past when my dad had his terrible accident and we needed help with his rehab that was a shambles and became a valuable friend to have. I’ve also tweeted the pm. Included our local council...

I’ve just had a look at the profile of abasaglar, it’s the same as lantus, gets in its stride after about 2-3 hours. Sometimes I find having a nap can have a rising effect on my sugars upon waking. You could of been tired which can put more pressure on our systems.

Same weight as before, no change here. Can fluctuate up and down a couple of kg depending how well my sugars have behaved and if I’ve had to have correction doses.

It’s a possibility, although I don’t know the profile of abasaglar. I know that levemir says it’s 2 hours before takes effect.

Can get them on amazon too, think they are about £1 more on there though so I get mine when I go to town and keep a stock in the cupboard. Really good as soon as you get the start of a sore throat or cough. Good immune boost. Secret is black elderflower with zinc and vit c.. :)
