@SpaceBoyfriend@cybre.space Hi, followed because your gender description in your bio is fucking amazing.

Also hi I'm Sparrow. :3

@erinbee Absolutely! I used garlic/ginger/green curry paste/lil soy sauce/lemon juice, plus salt/oil/pepper

And for dessert:

This weird nonsense!

Lookit me, livin' wild, mushrooms in my cocoa~ https://awoo.space/media/2R_N8uEcqwYQP5z3liU

Side dish:

Baby carrots! Hummus! Basic af!

(Sorry for the unsexy picture, I ate my plated version real fast)

Main dish: roasted cauliflower, oyster, & shiitake mushrooms

So I'm tryna keep my daily carb intake low because I'm diabetic and shit.

Anyway, lookit what I had for dinner tonight!

@Johannab

That happened to my dad! *Extends hand* Nice to meetcha, I'm Sparrow. :3

Kay, I met my fitness goals for the week. Now to convince my body it's bedtime, even though I just went for an extremely refreshing jog in 44 degree weather.

In the past two hours:
8 pm: 559 (highest BG since I was diagnosed, holy shit)
9 pm: 460 (still incredibly bad)
10 pm: 296 (STILL incredibly bad but okay, I can jog now)

Jsfc. Sorry Okinawa Boba Tea, but I think I''ll have to avoid you next time.

Lmao I subscribe to both Yoga With Adriene and Chris Fleming, and I almost clicked on Chris because I wasn't wearing my glasses and the Gayle getup is very Yoga Mom

@sam

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, my plan is to do pretty much the same, use keto recipes to give me more low-carb options.

I found a website for low-carb vegan eating, so I figured I could combine recipes from that site, vegetarian keto recipes, and other high-plant, low-carb recipes for a more balanced (less eggy) diet.

My goal is to eat less than 156 carbs/day, so I can take the same amounts of fast-acting insulin as my long-acting prescription.

Wow I went on reddit to read about how other Type 1 Diabetics handle losing healthcare, and

Oh god.

The state of healthcare in the U.S. is really, REALLY scary.
- 18 y/o "aged out" of health care in Texas
- One kid got fired from his job for "going to the doctor too much". He used vacation time to do pump training.
- That one report of a 26 year/old dying alone in his apartment because he ran out of insulin.

Just...

I think my goal is not to do a full-on keto diet, but to drastically reduce my carbs. Ideally I want to take the same amount of fast-acting (humalog) insulin/day as I do long-acting (lantus).

Right now I take 13 L/day. 13 H (at 1 H/ 12 grams carbs) comes out to 156 grams of carbs/day. Which is WAY less than I eat now, but enough that I can still reasonably cook vegetarian meals around.

Add me if you have #t1d! I really like and appreciate having a web of diabetic friends online I can talk to and commiserate with.

@sam Tell me how it goes for you! I'm vegetarian and frankly addicted to sugar (I know) so I'm scared to try a keto diet. Do you think it can work out for someone who doesn't eat fish/meat?

Wish some of y'all lived closer by~

I'd love to host game days, serve y'all some healthy snackage, or chill out to music/cartoons and knit together. :3

Welp, my blood levels are super high, so I just treated with insulin.

Soooo I'm gonna do some gentle yoga and test myself in 2 hours, and *then* do a night jog. I know it's setting myself up for a late night, but I really wanna meet my fitness goals for the week, dammit.

@rey It's really tragic. :(

tbf, I tried an okinawa tea with crema, when I normally just get black tea at 30% sweetness, so it's partially my fault.
