We Are T1D : Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes: 2 Wins, 2 Breakdowns & a Massive Comeback (Our Most Honest Episode Yet)


Listen Later

This week, we’re diving into 2 wins, 2 breakdowns, and one massive comeback in our Type 1 Diabetes lives. If you’re here for perfect graphs and flawless time-in-range, you’re on the wrong podcast. But if you want honesty, swearing, laughter, and actual real-life T1D chaos — welcome home. ❤️

In this episode, we talk mental health, time-in-range battles, Libre vs Dexcom drama, night-time spikes, morning glory (yep, still a thing), and why sometimes the biggest win is just not rage bolusing yourself into oblivion.


We also bring back Win of the Week and admit which one of us is addicted to crisps. Again.


In this episode:

  • 😅 Mike vs Freddy Krueger blood sugars

  • 🧠 Jack’s mental reset and climbing out of a rough patch

  • 💉 Basal timing, morning injections, and CGM chaos

  • 🥘 Bacon rolls, snacks, and late-night biscuit demons

  • 📈 Time-in-range face-off (someone wasn’t happy…)


🔥 Quote of the Week:
“If you didn’t miss us, you’re not listening anyway — so it doesn’t matter.”


We’re also bringing back Listener Wins, and this time we want VOICE NOTES — WhatsApp, Instagram, email, or carrier pigeon. If you send one, there’s a genuine chance Mike will post you a T-shirt he definitely hasn’t printed yet.
