    How do I get pump supplies???

    Anyone using an Ypsopump?

    Type 1 and Weight Loss

    Hi! I do carb count (very closely) and I'm on a pump. I find that when I lose even the smallest amount of weight my basal rates need adjusting because my levels go down regularly, which obviously means I have to eat to get them back up. I should have also mentioned I follow a very healthy diet...
