    Type 1 - Snack, flavouring and sweetner ideas???

    I'll look at the carb Killa products. I know if them. I assumed they still weren't great. I'm not a fussy eater, did you ever come across the any other proteins or non flavoured proteins that are good. I wouldn't care about taste even if it is awful

    Thank you. That was very interesting to read. I haven't been managing or educating my BG as well as I should the past 6months but you're giving me lots of things to consider, to read up on and to talk to my diabetic nurse about. I try manage things myself with my limited knowledge without...

    Type 1 - Snack, flavouring and sweetner ideas???

    @Antje77 Hi there. I was looking for general snacks throughout the day when I don't have any insulin in my system. Snacks I can eat late at night or between meals if I'm hungry and snacking.

    That double cream and cocoa seems like a tempting snack for me!!! I do tuna and mayo as a snack already! I love it (I'm not fussy). I'll have to do some chipolatas or chicken breasts to snack on. I was travelling a lot during summer and moving around (I'm a teacher) but now I will have a lot...

    Hi all. I was diagnosed with T1 just over a year ago. I've a huge appetite and have always been bad with portions but i would generally have a good balanced diet outside of that.

    URGENT! Sugars dropping with no insulin!!!

    Thanks for getting back to me Jo! Don't think it's the heat! It's winter here so is only around 25°C and days are short. I played a weekend rugby tornament in Belgium a few weeks ago where it 30° and I was fine. I had such little insulin in my system that the amount I was eating my sugars have...

    Hi all. I am 25years old and have been diagnosed with T1 for 13months now. I went through a long honey moon phase needing no insulin, but now I take 12units of lantus per day and 2-3units of novorapid per meal usually. I use a dexcom g7 and Freestyle meters. I travelled to Zimbabwe to...
