I do not currently use a CGM yet but am extremely interested in learning more about it. I am scared to invest a lot of money into something else and not entirely sure if I will like it or not. I am excited about the new pumps coming out with all the new technology!

I am on the Animas Ping and really like it. The glucometer is a remote and meter in one. It's really convenient. My endo has the Minimed and loves it. I talked to an Animas rep at a JDRF walk in April and he said that they are going to release a new pump by Dec this year with a glucometer inside the pump so you would only…

Is anyone on the Animas Ping? I'm on that and actually have liked it so far. It's expensive to be on but is competely helpful. Yes I do want to throw it across the room at times but all in all, I am glad to be on it. Ask me that about 2 years ago and I would have a totally different repsonse for you. :)

That is a great way to describe it. I've a Type 1 for 17 years and it does make you feel weird when you get so low. I had one instance where my blood sugar was somewhere around 35 or so and my husband had to call 911 because he had no idea what was wrong with me. He had no idea what was wrong with me but that I was…

Thanks Frank2884. I am on the the pump that communicates with the machine. It's by One Touch also and called the Ping. I've been using it since 2009 and really like it. You are right that getting on the pump is expensive for all the supplies and infusion sets. insurance companies will cover a percentage but you still have…

Hello everyone! My name is Jenna and I have been a Type 1 for almost 17 years. I am 27 years old and just recently joined MFP to control/maintain my weight, but more so, to drastically bring my glucose numbers or A1C as close to 6 as possible.I have also been out of control or what they labeled a "brittle" diabetic for…

Welcome on board! This site is great, I am new too and have only been for a little over a week Please feel free to add me as a friend! Jenna

You could try one of the places below: Target Sears Marshalls TJMaxx Loehmanns JCPenny's One of those places should have a NICE suit that you like, It could definitely take some time to find the "right" one for you as far as fit. Marshalls had a pretty selection the other day that I looked. Good luck!

Welcome! I am brand new as of last Monday! Please feel free to add me. Everyone has been very motivating as they are working towards their personal goals. I wish the best of luck to you!

I would not worry about her. She is just jealous! Her bf probably commented on how much he LIKES your booty. Take it as a compliment and don't listen to her. Be proud. Girls are catty as we all know. :)

Thanks me too. That's funny b/c I get called Gina a lot. Oh wow that is impressive about your daughter. My younger brother is 25 and was diagnosed 2 years after I was. We were both 10 years old at the time of being diagnosed. I will admit that I have some work ahead of me when it comes to my glucose numbers. Is your…

Thanks. I am looking forward to starting this program. :)
