Type 1 pumper here. Always open to new friends :) A1C has always been decent until last fall... I had a personal high score. I started on Dec 5th, lost 24.8lbs, average insulin in Dec was about 100 units, now I'm averaging 53 units/day. What has helped my glucose the most is the logging / weighing of everything and…

This is a very dangerous statement. Insulin does not put weight on. Failing to have a way to utilize glucose causes you to lose weight. High glucose causes damage to almost every body system... Heart, eyes, feet, kidneys... The list is goes on. I appreciate that you said to check with the physician, but that statement is…

Great job taking steps to manage your diabetes. I am a type 1 and I love MFP; I enjoy the premium version and think it is especially helpful for those of us managing diabetes.

This way I have something available that is small but will take care care of the urge, but not mess up…

Thank you everyone. He started the same time I did. He's kind of taking his own path though. He's not logging his food, just trying to be more careful.

I love the premium, but mostly as it helps me count carbs quickly. Type 1 Diabetes

Diabetes sucks. Became Type 1 (it's actually not 1 or 2, but I'm closer to 1... I have an insulin production problem instead of usage problem) at 23 when I ended up needing 90% of my pancreas out. However, it is not the end of the world and you can control it. The fact that you are already using MFP and considering your…

I am checking my sugar a little more often. This helps because I am more likely to go low as I am using my insulin more efficiently with exercise... and because I do not want be forced to eat before what I had planned. As far as for weight loss... Yes you absolutely need to log and count those calories. Your goal should be…
