[QUOTE="Cashers12, post: 1414516, member: 294253"] I went skiing for the first time in January. For the first 2 days I found it tough. Falling over so much meant my body was working hard so I was burning through sugar. Those first couple of days she just needs to keep up her carb intake especially. I had mars bars and glucose tablets in my pockets. After I got the hang of it more and wasn't falling so much I found I didn't burn through carbs anywhere near as quick. I am on treshiba long acting insulin and reduced that by 50% and with my fast acting went from a 1:10 ratio to a 1:15 to help me out for the whole trip. Definitely keep the meter on an inside pocket. They really don't like the cold. Kids pick up skiing so much quicker than adults so I'm sure she'll have very little problems. Good luck!! [/QUOTE]
