Just a goal,

I want to get bikini ready now...but I don't have money to be spending on a gym membership and I don't really want to take an Hour+ out of my day for something that might not work. So between my in home certified personal trainer (i call her mom), my already generally okay looking figure,  and the Internet as team beachbooty camp.
I have every intention of looking good my May 18th. I'm hoping I can do this. I used to be a cross country,  track and field runner, but then I went into my party every night drinking part time alcoholic stage and we all know how much that can hurt the body.
If anyone has an at home 0 weight workout they love message me or leave a comment I'll check it out ;)

I entend to start today my healthy breakfast 🍳 wish me luck.

I'm back, I'm Crazy, I'm Greatful

         Alright so today on instagram a said I was going to get back into this blog FULL SWING! 

Let me start by letting everyone know my A1C came down from a 12.3 to 7.9 and I still haven't figured out how to express how grateful i am for that.

How did i do it you ask? 

Easy!

         I did what doctors and dietitians have told be to do or my parents to do for me since my diagnosis at the age of months. Starting with test more than twice a day, I know it's bad but really i would test my blood as often as I'd brushed my hair and teeth. I know its wrong but I'm doing better now with 4-6 tests a day. (i know some people do as many as 15 daily but I still haven't gotten to be that extreme. Who knows maybe one day I will.

The Second Thing I did ? 

        Started using an insulin pump!??!?! Why did NO ONE ever actually tell me how FABULOUS these little beauties are? I've fallen in love with this technology, I've been on my pump for...well nine months now. It's done wonders at first i was afraid i gain a punch of weight on it but i haven't my first day on my pump i weight 108lbs and today I'm 99.6lbs witch means contrary to popular pumps myth you are not garmented to gain weight. 

The third and final reason my A1C has dropped? 

My AMAZING support team witch consist of my families dog Whiskey who's always there to give me love and cuddles and my amazing handsome boyfriend who has personally given be every juice box for the last 3 years and given me every single site change since my pumping started. (I'm still affraid of doing iit myself) .

I hope all of you are doing great... if anyone actually reads this that is, 

If there are any readers let me know 

Multiples

Is it just me or do you guys find as diabetics we have multiples of everything! Multiple doctors, appointment, testers, disorders? This post is more of me venting than anything else so I apologize in advance.
I personally think alot of this owning ten of everything becomes a serious pain in my a**. Maybe it's just me but personally I have at least 4 doctors appointments a month. I always have 3 or more blood testers in my bag. Plus the strips for all of them. I have extra sites and an insulin own incase something goes wrong. Am I the only person with this problem, the only person so tired of it? What am I supposed to do? Someone help please!

My body, my profile...

My earlier rant on instagram.... I apologize I'm to lazy to retype that small paragraph

Learn about me....

Alright let me start my blogging adventure with telling you about me.... 

1) I don't know how to blog so bare with me, this may not be very good.

2) I am a type one diabetic, I was diagnosed when I was two years old in September of 1997

3) I was also diagnosed with celiac (gluten intolerance) or commonly known as an allergy to wheat. in September of 2013.

4) I have been in DKA (Diabetic Ketone Acidosis) over 23 times in the last 5 years.

5) Because of how often I was hospitalized I ended up dropping out of high school. (I am finishing it now)

6) I don't have an endocrinologist, it's not a money problem.. i just live in a town that has a population of under 8000 people. I don't have an endo available to me. 

7) I started using an insulin pump June 2014 and I haven't been in DKA or even really had a high blood sugar since i started pumping.

8) I am a proud Canadian so i read my blood sugars mmol/L

9) My insulin carb ratio is 1:13 in the mornings till supper and for supper it is 1:12.

10) My mom is a personal trainer/ zumba instructor/ and yoga instructor. I do love yoga and zumba but I've never been good in a gym. I'm better in group classes.

11) I used to run track and field, cross country, and mini marathons but that was before i went threw the hospitalizations and I never really got back to it.  

Anyways please criticize, but don't be to harsh. Like i said this is my first time blogging. please go follow my instagram: pumpsandpiercings and don't forget to keep looking for my posts. I promise these blog posts can only get better.
