On thing I love about my pump, being able to get it out of my pocket and type in the dose just looks like I'm playing with a phone

I always find them a bit too dry but can stomach them if they're the tropical flavour. But when needed I'll get down anything even glucogel which I find to have a horrid taste/texture

Maybe not the right attitude but its once a year I don't go daft but if I fancy something I have a little bit of it. I like chocolate so I have a few miniature heroes or whatever is about just don't go daft is my advice.

I'd say as with sweets if just treat them as a treat when you do have sweets or alcohol have the proper thing and enjoy it.

As a 'treat' I don't think a McDonald's breakfast is awful. I go for a sausage and egg McMuffin, the egg is just a normal egg, granted the sausage won't be anything like you get from the butcher, instead of a hash brown I go for the fruit bag then I have a black coffe as my drink.

Re: Would you prefer to be on insulin injections or on a pum I was offered a pump 10 years ago but being a teenager and self sonscious refused. I've now had mine for 18 months and my quality of life has improved massively. Previously hypos were part of my everyday life and I'd never gone a full...
