    Monin sugar free syrup

    I just love to treat myself with a luxury coffee. Since Costa is at the end of my street, this kind a got out of hand. I noticed spikes in my bg after enjoying my latte with sugar free gingerbread syrup and dips in my empty wallet. So I've bought a bottle of this syrup via Amazon. Hello comfy...

    Cleo 90 infusion set

    Anyone else here using the Cleo 90 infusion set? I am happy with the system, from sharpness of the needle to the plastig thingy but it is quit difficult to remove the inserter and leave to sticker on my skin. Do you recognize this and how do you manage this?
