I ❤️ 🐧s ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ...and @expressionmedtape tape to help keep my Dexcom on ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There’s a discount code in my holiday gift guide blog post, link in bio 👀

My first Dexcom sensor lasted 17 days! How long do yours usually last? 💪 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I was hoping it would last longer, but maybe this next one will! 🤷‍♀️ Either way, 17 days is a long time and more than I ever got out of my Medtronic sensors. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Click the link in my blog to find out how to extend Dexcom G6 sensors 💓

How cute is this holiday card? ❤️🌲 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A special shoutout to @t1dchick for sending me this lovely holiday card ❤️ It’s people like her that make me love being a part of this community. She shares everything about her life with diabetes and radiates a positive energy. Truly a beautiful person, inside and out! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Use the holiday season to tell others how much they inspire or impact you! Leave a comment here ❤️ (The holiday card is from @myabetic)

Know how to extend a Dexcom G6 sensor? 👀 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ See my newest blog post to learn how. It’s actually really easy! Link in BIO.❗️ And thank you to @coolreeree where I originally saw the directions! 💓

Interested in giving low carb a go? Need some ideas? 👀 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I bought this cookbook #everydayketogenickitchen from @fooddreamer Carolyn Ketchum and absolutely love it. She has everyday low carb foods that won’t make you miss the “regular” stuff, and it’s all pretty easy too. 🍪 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I also love that the book is FULL of pictures 📷 I love seeing what I’m about to make. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Also really cool, Carolyn is a HUGE supporter of the type 1 community and is truly making an impact on so many of our lives. So a big shoutout to her for creating these recipes to make it all feel less daunting 💓

I recently switched from a Medtronic pump/CGM to @dexcom and MDI (vial and syringe) 🎉 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What questions do you have about this transition? Anyone else thinking of going pumpless? 🤷‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m LOVING it so far 💓 Here’s the report from the first 11 days with the G6! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I also wanted to share my report details because I want you all to know that GREAT control is possible also without a pump! People always told me a pump would help so much, etc. but the truth is, no. It’s all about how you manage the disease, it doesn’t matter how you choose to administer insulin.
