[QUOTE="kaylz91, post: 2175119, member: 358175"] Personally I chose to give up when I was diagnosed which I actually found very easy considering I'd been drinking at least 4 cans of lager and a bottle of fruity cider every night, it just wasn't worth the hassle to me, some find they need to bolus for it, others find they drop whilst asleep after consuming alcohol so need to take carbs on board without insulin after a night out, my team advised spirits with a diet mixer but making every 3rd or 4th a full sugar mixer to save me from dropping, I think after diagnosis I had about 5 cans lager spread over 2 months and thought I cant be bothered with this game anymore, I haven't touched alcohol coming up to 3 years in January and honestly feel so much better for it, cant even stand the smell of any of it anymore, you do what you feel is best for you though :) xx [/QUOTE]
