How’s your (blood sugar) weekend? 💓⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m loving #tresiba so far! No painful, red lumps like with #levemir . And it’s so stable! I was taking 3 shots of Levemir and with Tresiba I’m only doing one (so far, time will tell). ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tonight I’m going to a #keithurban concert in Minneapolis, MN 🎸 Any other KU fans out there? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #t1dawareness #blogger #t1dblogger #diabetesblog #type1diabetes #type1strong #type1diabetic #type1life #type1awareness #t1d #t1diabetes #diabetic #diabetes #t1diabetic #type1 #typeonegrit #lowcarb

What long acting insulin do you use, if you're on MDI?💉 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I had to switch from Levemir to Tresiba. Levemir was giving me painful, red lumps under my skin even though I only ever injected 6 units in one area at one time. 👎 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It was a fight with my insurance company, but I was finally able to pick up Tresiba today. I'll be writing a blog post about this situation soon! ✏️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #t1dawareness #blogger #t1dblogger #diabetesblog #type1diabetes #type1strong #type1diabetic #type1life #type1awareness #t1d #t1diabetes #diabetic #diabetes #t1diabetic #type1 #typeonegrit #lowcarb #tresiba #basalinsulin

Can you tell that these pictures were taken over a year apart? 🤷‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My @myabetic handbag hasn’t aged a day! And this is a true testament of the quality 💕 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’ve ever thought of getting a @myabetic bag, let this be a great time to do so! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I wrote a blog post last year, my top 5 fav things about this bag. All points still ring true! Link to post is in my bio 💓 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #t1dawareness #blogger #t1dblogger #diabetesblog #type1diabetes #type1strong #type1diabetic #type1life #type1awareness #t1d #t1diabetes #diabetic #diabetes #t1diabetic #type1 #typeonegrit #lowcarb #diabetesfashion

Have you heard of @vialsafeinsulinprotector ? 💕⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They make a protective “case” to prevent insulin vials from breaking when dropped. And they were kind enough to send me a few samples! I must say, I’ve never dropped a vial or broken one, so I never thought of the idea to store them this way, but it’s GENIUS! 💡⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I keep my Levemir in the fridge and don’t need to be afraid of it falling out, or that the vials in my purse slip out and shatter. They actually stay secure in my purse because it’s a non-slip like texture. 👌⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This product is something that I never thought I’d need, but now that I have it, I feel 12866x better about keeping my vials safe (esp because insulin is outrageously expensive)!💲💲💲⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They also have a Columbus Day sale going on, check out their Instagram @vialsafeinsulinprotector !⠀🎉 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #t1dawareness #blogger #t1dblogger #diabetesblog #type1diabetes #type1strong #type1diabetic #type1life #type1awareness #t1d #t1diabetes #diabetic #diabetes #t1diabetic #type1 #typeonegrit #insulin #insulinvial
