Pardon My Pancreas - Type 1 Diabetes with Matt Vande Vegte

Other times, it's just nice to have different options to manipulate blood sugars...

That's right, I said manipulate blood sugars.

In today's episode, I share how I was able to actually reduce my insulin needs in a pinch, which allowed me to set myself up for my best Ironman 70.3 race yet.

I spill ALL the secrets on this one with:

1. weight loss
2. insulin resistance
3. blood sugar manipulation
4. and MORE!

Check it out if you're ready to "think differently" about your diabetes management 😉

My LEAST favorite way to learn - the HARD way. Unfortunately I had a pretty rough go recently that left me in a not so good place mentally...

And the lesson that I learned actually was discovered by my wife, Lisa.

We were on vacation in Hawaii a few weeks ago and things were not exactly "peachy" with my blood sugars...

I tried my best to hide it so that it didn't impact the family, but after a few days of extreme difficulty.... They started to notice.

The last thing I wanted was to be a burden to them on vacation...

And it took learning this one lesson to ensure that I got back on track - physically, but also mentally, in order to enjoy life with T1D again.

I hope you enjoy this vulnerable episode.

I recently shared some extremely vulnerable information during my book launch event that shook some attendees...

I opened up about some of my past, some of my "behind the scenes" challenges, and even some of my private life during the interview.

And while it was initially only meant for that core group of Renegade Warriors that were LIVE with me on the book launch event...

Many of them reached out after and thanked me for opening up about some pretty dark experiences I've been through and said that they too had dealt with it.

So as a celebration for hitting Bestseller in less than a day...

And more importantly, to share my vulnerable dark moments in the hopes that it gives others a glimmer of hope for themselves in their journey with type 1 diabetes....

Today's episode is a compilation of the interview questions from my book launch event that cover:

1. Why I wrote the book and who it's for
2. The hardest chapter to write
3. My favorite blood sugar formula
4. Tricks and tips for exercise and type 1 diabetes
5. And so much more.

I hope this helps you out, and I truly hope you enjoy as much as those who attended did.

Did you know that juice is no longer considered the best way to treat low blood sugars?!

In today's episode we went down the rabbit hole of rabbit holes on everything glucose, metabolism, low treatments (and why you've been making life more difficult than necessary), and so much more.

We even went into some behind the scenes stuff that I know you'll love, as this was initially meant only as a private training for my clients!

Enjoy, learn, and happy blood sugars!

Completing an Ironman with type 1 diabetes was... challenging to say the least.

In fact, there were a few occassions where if an aggressive decision I made went differently...

I might not have finished the race at all.

In today's episode - by popular demand, I walk through, step by step, moment by moment - every blood sugar, insulin decision, and strategy I used in order to complete 140.6 miles of endurance triathlon in what I can now say was the hardest day of my life.

If you enjoy diabetes details, you're gonna love this one.

Ultra-Endurance Athletics, just like real life with diabetes, require the skill of adaptation.

A few days ago I completed my first ever Ironman race.

Over the course of the 140.6 miles of mental and physical battles, I encountered a FEW diabetes disasters that required me to think on my feet..

And ultimately make some decisions that were quite dangerous and could have landed me in the hospital.All things considered, I'm lucky to have finished...

So in today's episode, I share the details on how I pivoted in moments of frustration, uncertainty, and complications with type 1 diabetes that I ran into during my Ironman race.

Ever wonder why blood sugars aren't cooperating after a meal? In today's episode I discuss the exact method I use to identify exactly how much insulin I need at meals in order to stay in range...

And it's easier than you think!

The unfortunate truth is that our medical system is often outdated...And in today's episode I share a story about a conversation I had with a client who hadn't been given updated information in over 30 YEARS from her medical team...

And how this simple switch led to her nearly eliminating after meal blood sugar spikes.

7 site changes, 2 vials of insulin, 1 meltdown... What do you do when diabetes doesn't follow the "rules" anymore?

I'll be transparent - I had a hard week with diabetes.I made it work... as we all do... but it was a tough one.

What made it even tougher is that it ended with me heading into my biggest Ironman training block ever...

100 miles on the bike, 10 miles on a run.

And believe it or not... blood sugars......... still didn't cooperate.

They did, however, give me a really interesting lesson through the disaster (as they always do it you're willing to listen to them).

In today's episode I walk through the enormous amount of insulin needed to stay in range during my century bike ride...

As well as the distinction discovered through my training block that allowed me to "recover" my diabetes management amidst the chaos.

Give it a listen for the lesson, stay for the ridiculous story.

I canceled my next triathlon, and you should cancel your medical team...

Pretty shocking, I know! But there comes a time in every journey where you might need to "question everything" and hit the reset button...

And in today's episode, I share exactly what that looked like in my life right now...

As well as what you can use to know IF it's time for you to switch gears and update your diabetes management strategies.
