Here’s my one big piece of advice for the week…

Don’t go on social media and compare yourself to anyone posting anything!

I am getting pretty sick of facebook posts in some of the diabetes support groups where people say something along the lines of ‘spiking’ to 8 or 10 after meals, or worrying because their A1C has ‘gone up a bit to 6’. Sorry but fuck off.

I am looking forward to the day when the highest my BG spikes is 10mmol. Try adding 7 or 8 to that number. And an A1C of 6?? Miracle of miracles!! How many lows come with that A1C?

Remember (and I will also try and do this) that this is your own journey. Your body is completely different from every other body out there.
