[QUOTE="LooperCat, post: 1843823, member: 468055"] I have always loathed breakfast, and wasn’t diagnosed until 24. My parents insisted I eat it before school, even though I was actually retching trying to get the stuff down. And then I spent a few happy years at university not eating until lunchtime, which suited me just fine. Then along cake T1, and it was hammered into me that I had to eat soon after waking to soak up all the insulin. Forced myself to do it for years, and resented every bite. Can you tell I’m not a morning person? Anyway, two decades on, I’ve finally got my basal right, which means I don’t eat until late afternoon if I don’t want to. Breakfast isn’t essential, but getting the basal right is. I’ve got a 15 year old son myself, and know just how stroppy they can be in the mornings, although he’s not T1. You have my sympathy!
