Is Butter a Carb? | T1D, Nutrition, & Health Conversations

09. Potlucks, Barbecues, and Cookouts—OH MY! T1D strategies for enjoying summer food without blood sugar chaos


Listen Later

Food-centered events like barbecues, potlucks, and buffets can feel so overwhelming with T1D.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the three strategies that can help you approach these events with more confidence, less stress, and (hopefully) more in-range blood sugars.

We'll talk through practical tools you can implement TODAY like how to use a plate to your advantage, why it’s not always about perfection, and how your everyday relationship with food plays a bigger role than you think.

Whether it’s the 4th of July, a weekend at the lake, or a simple summer dinner with friends, you deserve to enjoy the food and feel good in your body.

Mentioned in this episode:

  • Episode 4: How your relationship with food affects diabetes management

    • Hunger/fullness scale (Google it, print it, use it!)


    If you enjoyed this episode, it would mean so much if you left a review or shared it with a friend living with T1D.💛
