I had my first appointment at a new endo office yesterday. I had the best experience ever, and never imagined there was a place like this even out there. The NP was very thorough, they drew labs, did…Continue

"I was the other way. I kept going hypo. It was over the weekend, and I just kept eating and eating to cover the lows. Monday I contacted my CDE and she adjusted my settings. If the pod hadn't been my first pump, I probably would have just…"

"Great question. Once you've lost what you want, eat more protein & then keep your protein at that level. Here's a good protein calculator http://www.phlaunt.com/lowcarb/DietMakeupCalc.php."

How and when do you stop losing weight?

I've been eating low carb for a month now, approximately 30-40 grams per day. I've lost seven pounds so far, which I'm very happy about. I'd like to lose about 5 more, but really don't want to fall below 120. My question is (and I never thought I'd have to ask this, lol) how do you stop losing weight once you've hit your goal?

"I'll be curious as to whether or not they have the program for the Omniopd. I usually just given them my meter. I love it and can't seem to give it up, even though there's a meter built in. I'll have to ask about that. I have an…"

"That's what is frustrating to me. I do wear a CGM, so I can clearly see that it's not going low in the middle of the night. I guess I just don't understand the point, lol."

Hey TG, I've been away for awhile and just saw your invite. I remember you asking a lot of questions about the pod, so not sure if your on it but hope it's going well and talk to you soon. ~Schmutz

I'd be happy to chat about my experience with the pod anytime! For me, I had the pod very quickly once I submitted the app (about a week). But my husband has great benefits and I'm sure that helped the process! Hope you have a great holiday weekend :)

Hi Tiffany! Thanks for the friend add! I found TuD when I was searching for OmniPod reviews. I started the pump back in January and LOVE IT! I know that you've been looking into it. I hope you find the right pump for your lifestyle :)
