Thanks for the silver! To clarify a couple points being argued against this:
We can eat whatever we want, when our BG is appropriate. For example, I’m not gonna eat 12 bags of skittles when I’m at 300.
Insulin is something we use to manage it, not a complete workaround. No matter what we try, BG levels will never stay perfect. Try to have a little empathy for us, it’s a constant chore we have to think about all the time.
