Hi fellow Funky Diabetics! I am a type one diabetic and I would really like to make contact with fellow type one diabetics who are bodybuilders and in to weight training. I am keen to give this a go and I would like to ask some questions about diets, training plans and diabetic safe and effective supplements. If you have can and are willing to share some advice on this please do get in touch. Many thanks in advance.
