Happy birthday, and so good to see both yours and Raffi's smiling faces on the beyondtype1 IG feed!
Aww thank you!
I’m 48, diagnosed June 2019 with T1 late onset LADA. Currently I keep to a low carb diet and bolus when I need to (personally my ratio is 5 mmol per unit for prophylaxis or bolus 1 unit per 10g carbs from personal experience of insulin sensitivity). I work in pharmacy for NHS England and always found Diabetes a boring subject... Not anymore...!
Hope you had an amazing birthday xx :)
Happy belated birthday Michelle! 🎉 I hope you had a beautiful and wonderful day 🤗
Happy Birthday Michelle! I loved the vlog!
Happy Birthday 🎂🎉🎁🎈🎊
AW Happy Birthday to you & Matt! I'm so happy you & Raffi have each other! You're both so kind & awesome! Thanks for giving us all the realities & hope! Hoping you have good bg's! 👏💗
Thanks Miranda💖! Matt says thank you too ☺️!
@@MichelleLord Awe you two are incredible people! I'm just happy you got to hang out & have a great time! 💗💖💖👼
Thankyou for sharing. Happy Birthday, and all the best for your wedding day.
LOVED this vlog ! Raffi is such a kind person and was so nice to sing Happy Birthday to you to wake you up ! I'm so glad you had a good birthday and remember that you are SUCH a cool person !
Thanks Dave!! Yes, Raffi is so sweet! And so are you! I cannot wait to use my gift card soon ☺️
Michelle Lord thank you ! Enjoy 😌
Happy belated birthday!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! LOVE YOU
Thanks so much girl 😘! Love you too 💞
So happy for you! Sounds like many good things on your horizon. Enjoy your time off, can't wait to see pics of your wedding.
Also, good for you for finding the pre-bolus stuff and using it. I am always SO afraid to pre-bolus, afraid of going low or afraid that i'll forget to eat! LOL. Which is silly because how could I forget to eat, I love food! LOL.
Thank you!! Yes prebolusing can definitely make me nervous, and I actually have gone low from waiting too long, but with practice it is super effective :)
Happy happy happy Bday🤗🎂
Happy Birthday 💕
Happy Birthday!
Really enjoy your videos Michelle. My 4 year old is type 1. I like how you always show your levels, it's really interesting to know. A 4 year olds figures can sometimes be like a roller coaster.
Thank you 💙. I can only imagine how hard it would be to control a 4 year old's blood sugars, and I'm sure you are doing a great job :)
College is affecting my sugar so bad! I was taking a stressful exam the other day and my pump kept vibrating which was super inconvenient and it was in my bra so I raised my hand and asked if I could press a button on my pump and my bio teacher asked me to move behind her desk where no one could see me that way I didn’t gross anyone out. My pump was also easily assessable so it wasn’t like I was going to flash anyone. Lol that comment alone affected my sugar and I bombed my exam because I was so distracted by the comment. Ugh. Lol Happy Birthday!!!! ❤️
Happy birthday!!🎉🎈My daughter will be 29 in Nov.
Happy birthday 🎂🎉 🎊
Hey, feliz cumpleaños ( a bit late for I’m watching these out of order). I love the books ‘wait for the bend’ theory that you’ve mentioned in and in a few other videos, it really makes sense unless I’m eating something high in fat, like an avocado. Also a huge congrats on finishing your thesis, I know how grueling that work can be so kudos to you kiddo. 👍
Thank you!! Oh yes, I would never want to do "waiting for the bend" for a high fat meal. That would definitely lead to a low haha.
Looks like you had a great Birthday, thanks for bringing us along! PS I also feel about 18. I'm soooo far from that already though :P
Haha I wish we could all just stay 18 😁😝
Can you do a what’s in my closet or clothing haul sometime? Your outfits are always gorgeous! ⭐️
Aww thank you so much!! I am planning on getting some new clothes for spring, so I will try to do a haul for that :)
Hope your day way beautiful. Wow my sugars bounce every day. Stressful job makes it sooolo hard
Little does Michelle know that she already has a full time job: keeping her interstitial fluid sugar levels between 4 and 8....
Haha omg this is SO true!!! 😝
Happy birthday 🎉🎊
Hej! Grattis på födelsedagen!!! 😉 🎂
Tack så mycket!!
Amazing...ㅠㅠㅠ I really really enjoy your video... oh~~~good~~
I know I’m late, but this was a really entertaining and relaxing to watch. It’s about 6:30 in the morning and I just woke up, and I’m 40 mg/dl aha.
This really helped me chill, thank you!
Happy birthday! XOXO
You aren't late haha! I'm so happy my vlog helped you relax while waiting to recover from a low blood sugar 💖
Glad to hear aha, and thank you again ! ^^
I often have hypoglycemia (non-diabetic) and find out that taking 1-2 glucose tablets throughout the day really helps me get through the day. Do you know if it is bad to take glucose tablet on a daily for diabetic and non-diabetic?
I love the fact that he sang to her in swedish🙏 Happy birthday michelle🎉🎉
He is the sweetest Swede ☺️! Thank you 💖
Happy Birthday!! I just recently found your vlog, and I love it. I’ve been T1 for almost 20 years, and I’ll be getting the pump T-slim, next month. What kind of diet would recommend to help shed some awful poundage, lol!!! Help, thank you!!
Also, I use the freestyle Libre CGM
Thank you ❤️! I honestly can't recommend any diet because I've never tried to lose weight, but I think eating a lot of fruit, veggies, and whole foods is key! I have really made an effort to stop eating processed foods over the past 2 years and I feel like that really helps as well :)
Hi! I also have type 1 and I’m really struggling with the motivation. Whenever I want to try and pick up checking my blood sugar and to bolus after meals. Anyone any tips? I really need them 😶
Happy Birthday ❤️ not sure if you have Walgreens. So I’m in USA😂 they have glucose gummies! I can’t stand glucose tabs 😖
Thank you 💞! No we don't have Walgreens here! Glucose gummies sound so good!
Så, Raffi is Swedish?? I live in Norway, and my 4 year old grandson has type 1 diabetes. I find your videos so helpful! THANKS!
Dose it hurt to have a pump I’m get my frost one soon please answer my comment
Happy bday
Happy birthday I’m a type one didactic too 😆
Michelle I have a question: when you get low, do you feel physically hungry, mentally hungry or both? Just curious.
Happy birthday, even though it’s a little late.
Happy Birthday I forgot your name my birthday is on September 21 I’ll be 75 n how are you doing I hope and pray that everything goes good for you and wish all the best ❤️🌹🎉🎁🎈🍧🎂🍷
Happy Birthday!! Quick question, so I just started on the dexcom 6g. Like literally just started using it yesterday and I have an iPhone 6 and I wasn’t going to use the receiver, I was just going to use my phone but on my phone it constantly says that the signal was lost or if I close out of the app it says that it can’t read my blood sugars because the app was closed out. So I ended up using the receiver, but I was wondering if you had any tips on using the dexcom with my phone and any tips about the signal loss and closing the app out. It was saying it even when I had the app still running in the background it would say that the app was closed and it can’t read my blood sugars. I would appreciate any tips! 😁👍
Hi! I don't have the G6, but I know for the G5 I always have to have the app running in the background. If you close the app, you will no longer get blood sugars sent to your phone. That's weird that you are losing signal even with the app open. I remember something like this happened when I first got my Dexcom, and it worked itself out in a day or so. Perhaps it is just a technical glitch? You could also always call Dexcom tech support :)
You need to allow "background app refresh" for the Dexcom app in phone settings.
Michelle Lord thank you! I’m new to the dexcom so I’m still learning. I will see if it works itself out. If not I’ll call tech support.
ProNoober8 thank you! Do you know how to do that? I have an iPhone.
Can you make a full video for pre-Bolus ing? I read sugar surfing and loved it but I’m still having trouble with the pre blousing concept, anyone have any suggestions?
I honestly haven't fully gotten the hang of "waiting for the bend" myself, and I would hate to give the wrong information that would affect someone's well being. I will try to include some more of my prebolusing techniques in my vlogs as I learn what works for me :)
I'm on master degree and I agree with you on the fact that university is really time-consuming. Few hours are left for other activities: I would like also to enjoy life. I'm evaluating whether to apply for PhD, like you, or not. 🤔
You have a nice husband to be I’m so happy that you going to be with him I hope that you don’t leave us you made my life better I love watching you and listening to you because lately I have been depressed with my Sugars because they have been so high I couldn’t believe it my Daughter wanted to take me to the hospital but I’m stubborn and didn’t what to go it’s a shame what Diabetic have to go through there really no cure for but I hope that someday that there will be Goodnight 🌙.
Feliz cumpleaños guapa! 🎂🎉
gracias ☺️💖
I have socks that are 30 years old... just saying. Great channel. Keep vlogging... I'm a T2 but get a lot of info from you. Thank you.
Haha😂 ! Thank you so much ☺️
Hi Michelle! Happy Birthday!! so belated ...sorry! now you are even older than 29! well, some days older, don't freak ; ) got used to it already ? : ) don't worry you do look 18 - ask Raffi! - he will confirm - for all the years to come, if he is smart : )) Hey guys, all the best to you both!
okay, going along with the narrative: ... Michelle, I wish you best success for the upcoming thesis defense!! Make sure you prepare appropriately for the viva, not just relaxing time from now till then ; ) right, the wedding coming up, okay good excuse ... : ) ... Wow, the SCARY 'Halloween' scar : )) ... if Raffi did not freak out by this sight - well, he seems a tough guy ... and a very nice one, indeed : )) - then everything is fine, I guess, and you should not worry at all about anybody else's look ; ) ... Thanks for the good advice regarding pre-bolus injection technique for food as this issue of doing the right timing with the appropriate dosage has been keeping me upset for most of my diabetes life and I was most of the time more afraid of hypoglycemia than of high values (a questionable strategy by itself, I know). Lately it became even more challenging by finally trying to take into consideration also the correct calculation for the ever so complicated fat/protein unit and its effects on the blood sugar. ... What a lovely birthday party day!!! Thanks for having invited the rest of us and sharing it online! Best wishes and lots of love to you and Raffi and your families! Andreas
In my experience the food side of things is easier to deal with. Stress and hormones are my nemesis! If we could all live in the middle of a forest just listening to birds we'd be an eternal 5.3!
Enjoy your 'me' time before life gets hectic again.
Omg, right?!? I have the same problem with stress and my menstrual cycle, it took me more than a year since diagnosis (got diagnosed at 33 in 2018) to kiiind of figure out my factors during the month (It's still a lot of guessing lol). Stress is really a BIG factor, it keeps my blood sugar super high for hours and then lets it fall super rapidly. 🙄 Your idea of forest living sounds heavenly btw!
@@blibz I'm 17 years in and I still haven't made sense of it!! It's all a constant learning curve. Every time you think you're getting somewhere, your body shifts the goalposts again!
I completely agree! Stress and hormones are super frustrating. So many people don't realize how much stress can affect our blood sugars. I wish we could all live in the middle of a forest and listen to birds lol 😂.
Thanks so much ❤️
What is your fav flavor of glucose tabs I haven’t tried to many?
Good question! I think I like the watermelon best... but apparently there are also strawberry ones now that are pretty good!
There’s watermelon😍 I’ve only ever seen strawberry and grape I’ll have to look for them!
Your hair was beautiful in the plait and bun 😀
Aww thank you!
do you guys know swedish?🥰 you sang the swedish happy birthday song right?❤️
(im from sweden☺️)
and i hope u had a good birthday!!
Ella Yes, Raffi grew up in Stockholm and speaks fluently. I know a very small amount :). Thank you so much!
okey, thank you so much for the answer! hälsa Raffi!🥰
Plz make videos on how much insulin you take before you eat breakfast and lunch..also which combination of insulin you take...
Tejas sawant I take only Novorapid because I’m on an insulin pump, and insulin dosages are different for everyone :)
@@MichelleLord i like your videos very much...keep vlogging...and wish you very wonderful birthday

The day I came across Dr IGUDIA RUclips channel was the day I started living a more comfortable life again after using his herbs medication in curing my Diabetes disease
