    Bad Tummy

    I dont use metformin. It makes my tummy upset, too. It is the possible side effect, as its written on the prospectus.

    Work and low blood sugars!

    Weirdly, that feels like you do not need to get insulin, looking at how less intake you are having. That less amount of insulin and having low bg in couple of hours suggest your body produces enough insulin. Are you sure you are T1?

    What have I done!

    Ah, don't worry, we all passed the same roads. I have lost my patience many times, no biggy. You keep dieting, you may find yourself in the same weight for three weeks despite the diet. Our bodies with diabetes loves to keep the fat. Just keep yourself in the boat of healthy dieting. You will...

    Good carb ideas.....?

    As the sugar level is important to get balanced, I prefer regular sugarcubes. Very cheap, pinpoints the problem and helps you keep away from extra fats and carbs. If you eat carbs or sweets or cakes, you get other nutritions that are not that healthy or needed for your body at that moment. Your...

    Living high. Type1.

    As T1 for 15 years, I suggest you not to drop exercising. You should, instead, readjust your insulin intake according to your lifestyle. First time I was diagnosed, put to a hospital for a few days to calibrate my insulin intake. Since I did not do any exercise and sat all day long, my bolus...

    Weights vs Carbs

    We're on the exact same boat! Don't look for very special nutritions, there are some other things you can do to have and keep the body mass. I do 3day cardio-3day weightlifting, shifting to one another everyday. Does miracles! Little tip: you must get much more protein into your muscles. Whey...

    Any sweet at all?!

    I stopped sweets on coffe and tea for a long time ago. I add regular milk into coffee, feels nice, smoother. Tastewise, sugar tastes very bad in hot beverages, now! Funny, but true. I, also left all types of sodas. Thankfully there is no Dr.Pepper in Turkey (addicted forever in the usa) else Id...

    Viagra and Type 1 - Yep I said it !!!

    Well, thats allright. At least I now know that one should take the pill at least 48 hours intervals. Though, I didn't needed that much of use of the pill, was just an experiment I did for my own. That was three years ago, and not using since. The point here is T1 s may use the pill as...

    Vitamins and Supplements

    I never got a good result from those pills. I know that taking a vitamin like C for example is not same as taking it from a lemon or an orange. It is because orange has more than C in it, and has extras to make C work in your metabolism in full function. If you only take vitamin C that has...

    Viagra and Type 1 - Yep I said it !!!

    I tried it a whole week everyday, one pill at a time! Nothing bad is happening. No hypo, really start to see things a bit blueish at darkened rooms after three days. I guess once a day for 7 days start to lose its productivity a bit, but may be it was me losing my appetite for that lady for some...

    Depression

    Hi there, We all get depressed time to time, whatever the reason is. The catch to me is to find a way to motivate ymyself about the things I like to do, such as exercising, hobbies, meeting with loved ones. This idea may be cheesy, but it is very effective on getting out of blue. I get depressed...

    Test strips restriction

    There is a catch to using strips; If you are in control of what you eat every meal, you generally get the same result every time. So, I know what happens what I eat, how much I eat, when I eat (after a week of trial and measuring bg) I only use one strip at nights, before bed. If I overeat for...

    I hate my weight!

    Are you sure you want to lose 30 kg? or lbs? tha seems too much for you, looking at your avatar picture. I do not think that is a healthy choice. I guess you do not have that much fat in your body to lose like that. You better check your BMI and get advice from pros.
