I just really love all your videos about Type 1 Diabetes. I just went on the Dexcom G6. It's amazing how wonderful it is and what a life changer it is. Living alone, after my husband died, I just needed something to tell me when my sugar is going low. I'm older and don't have the same feelings after being diabetic for so long! Anyway, thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing and helping us all out! All the best. . . . .
Thank you, my dad just got diagnosed with diabetes, so I'm trying to find yummy breakfast ideas that are good for him.
I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad's recent diagnosis - I'm glad this can be of a little help at least! Hopefully he finds it yummy!! ❤️
Hello Andrea ... My little daughter also has diabetes. She is only six years old and loves you very much. You are her hero. Thank you very much for the valuable information you shared. You don't know how much courage and morale you gave her...
I just discovered ur acc i got diagnosed a month ago n ive been going through terrible low events and im mentally depressed but ur videos gave me sm hope and brightened my day sm you also helped me alot thank you so much
Oh I am so so so sorry. Lows are the worst at any time, but particularly awful when they're new and you're newly diagnosed. It's completely understandable you're depressed. Please hear and know that. And know that you will emerge. Try to do one thing every day that makes you feel good - it doesn't have to be diabetes related, in fact perhaps it would be better if it weren't! Take care of yourself and know that the tide will turn, and things will become so much easier. Truly I promise you this 💙💙💙
Tysm for taking time out of ur day to reply and make me feel better im trying my best to adapt to being diabetic and being better mentally so far im wayy better than i used to be when i commented that tysm for listening and replying it means alot
I tried this !!!! I love it !!! Thanks so much for sharing x I was struggling for a better option breakfast looks like I found it .
I'm really into it. Took a bit of tweaking to find the recipe for me but it's my weekday breakfast now.
This is a game changer for me, by the time I woke this morning my sugars were 6.2 and already rising slowly. Had this for breakfast (using half a banana) took 1 unit novo rapid and by lunch I was at 6.6 only spiking to 8.2 in between. Usually I'd be experiencing a higher spike or be having to take a correctional dose with lunch.....and it tastes amazing, so win win, thanks for sharing 😃 x
YES!!! WIN WIN WIN!!! I'm so happy to hear this!!! 👏 👏 👏
I will have to try this!! I have made chia seed pudding a lot, but none have been successful 😂!! Thanks so much for sharing 💞
Oh I hear you! Sometimes it takes a little while to get the ratios right!! I've had many a strange combo myself 😂 Good luck and I hope you enjoy it!! 💕
Nice video, I want to thank Dr IGUDIA on CZcams who cured my Diabetes disease with his herbs medication
I tried it this morning. With bonsoy soy milk, a banana and few sultanas .
Thankyou, good and quiet filling, and best of all no Spike in levels 👍😊
Love the idea just the banana is a killer for me but it is so versatile
I hear you! On days where I know the banana is going to give me more trouble than it's worth I swap it out for blueberries or raspberries and that helps a great deal!
You always brighten up my day ❤️
Oh thank you so so much!! 💕
Been wanting to try chia seed pudding for so long, looks delicious!
Yay! I hope this recipe helps get you started! It's so easy - and I find it rather delicious myself! 😊
This is a great suggestion for breakfast. I have an active job and before my diabetes diagnosis i never ate breakfast so it was hard to find something that wasn't too carb heavy and would keep my BG from dipping before lunch. This chia seed stuff is awesome. It took some chopping and screwing to get it right for me but it keeps me full and my BG sustained but not spiking.
Yes - this was me completely before I discovered chia seed pudding! I almost feared breakfast because of the spikes, but with the chia seed pudding - nada! I'm glad this has been helpful to you too!! 😄
@@ShesDiabetic For sure, thanks!
_My protip to you: If you have never done so, stick your hand in a bag of chia seeds_ Feels nice lol
Great video, I'm going to try my chia pudding with almond milk, pecans, blueberries, unsweetened chocolate morsels, and cinnamon. Thank you again.
Thank you so much for help!
Hi Andrea, it is an amazing breakfast which I have never think about it. I will try this since my BG recently is getting high uncontrollably in the morning and mostly after breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Came here after seeing you in my favourite series Homeland. You were amazing! So sad that there are no more series. Excited to see what you do next on screen 😍
Just side note... In the UK, you don't deduct the fibre from the carbs on the label as what you see is the net carb already (different to the US system). Sainsbury's do a nice grain free granola.. It's just seeds and nuts.. It's by The Paleo Foods Co. Off the top of my head 5.9net carbs per 40g serving.
Oh my gosh - really??? I never knew that!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
I really like your videos. I have also T1D. P. S. You're so adorable.
Thank you so so much my Diabuddy!! 💙🙏🏻
such a huge fan love your films and love your work on alien isolation your the best stay strong :)
Cool! I will try it this week! :-) Thanks!
YAY!! Let me know how you like it!!
I tried the pudding and it was really very good. I put in more milk so it was a little loose but yummy
NICE!! Oh I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!! And good call about the extra milk - excellent idea! 😍
thank you so so so much for this suggestion i have been severely struggling in the morning with anything i ate in the morning and my sugars spiking so high and i did not know what else to try so thank you for this new idea
I hear you!! Hopefully this helps you out!! I think it will!
Great quick recipe! And looks delish. I have to try this. Thank you for the inspiration!❤️
You are so welcome! I hope you enjoy it!!!
Ahhh I need to make this! Your video shows how simple it is..time to get some chia seeds
Thank you!!! Truly I think you'll enjoy it!!! Wishing you a wonderful week ahead and happy making Courtney!!
I have made this many times. Thank you. But now that I think about it, I’m surprised the bananas don’t spike you. I have used bananas as rescues for low blood sugar.
Yay!! I'm so glad you've enjoyed the recipe!! Horray!! I definitely need to take insulin with my bananas - but combining them with the protein of the chia seeds or a peanut butter, for example, helps but those potential highs for me! Just my experience though - I know we're all different!!
Hi thank you, for the chia pudding idea😊 Was thinking about the carb counting. Do you subtract anything else from the fruits carbs or calculate different? I would think the carbs are much higher than 15g for the chia, banana and raisins cup. If I cover for 15carbs I would spike substantially 🤦🏻♀️
Banana (1 medium): 27 grams of carbs, 3 of which are fiber. Raisins (1 ounce / 28 grams): 22 grams of carbs, 1 of which is fiber
ceylon cinnamon works too
Hi Andrea, Annie here x
I had just bought some chia seeds last week and was wondering what to do with them. 👍
Can I warm this up once it’s set, either in the microwave or a pan?
Thanks in advance, all of your videos are super helpful. xXx 😊
Oh great timing and question Annie!! You know what - I've never tried warming them up - but just looked online and it would appear that you totally can!!! Now I'm going to have to try this because that sounds even more delicious!!! Great suggestion!! I hope you enjoy your pudding and thank you so so much for your kind words!! XxX ❤️
Thanks for sharing. Loved your vid. Take care and stay safe.
Thank you!! You too!
Hi, Andrea!
I'm from Brazil (Sao Paulo) and I'm diabetic girl.
You are so cute and I love your chanel. Thank you for your tips, recipes and all help for us.
Come here visit me in Brazil. Kisses. 😙
I’m a diabetic to! T1D
Thanks. I am going to try this
I hope you enjoy it!
Looks great, thanks for sharing!👍
You're so welcome!
Yum! Quick and easy.
Amen!! We all need that - right!
has anyone been following the bionic pancreas developments with beta bionics "ilet" system? It does both the insulin and glucose functions and is the worlds first complete closed-loop system. Looks amazing. The FDA have given it "breakthrough" status whatever that means so it is being fast-tracked through their process and is in either phase 2 or 3 of human trials. It basically means that this is the closest we will get to being normal before an actual cure. You can exercise and eat whenever and whatever you want and you don't have to worry about hypers and hypos as we do constantly today!! They are in the US and are talking to European companies as the founder of the company wants it available for everyone (he started the company after his little boy was diagnosed with Type 1 at 11 months old or something :(. I will move heaven and earth to get this!
I've read a little bit about it and I have to say I am very very excited too!!! This is such huge news for the community! I mean any step forward is good, but this is a huge step it would seem. The only hesitation I have with getting really excited about is if people don't have access it it due to insurance/health care coverage issues. One step at a time though, but I am very excited!!!
Hi Andrea,
Just checking if all is well, and that you are keeping safe?
Take care Rex
Hi Rex! All is very well with me, and I hope the same for you? Thank you for asking! 💙
Hi Andrea! Great to see you. I am a big fan of yours since I play the game you were the lead character in and I saw you in the Entebbe movie. Have a great weekend! +1 Subscriber 4 you.
Hey do you think you can do a video on how you adjust tour bolus abs basal? My diabetes team isnt open and I keep having severe hypos 🙄 any tips would be amazing xx
That's a great idea- thank you for the suggestion! Have you seen my Exercise Vlog? That sort of covers a bit of this topic, also my Day In The Life Video. I'm also working on a video on Carb Counting. Hopefully all these will help answer your question! If not though - let me know! Thank you again for the suggestion! xxx
@@ShesDiabetic thankyou so much! I will watch those right now! I love your channel ❤
U did same like me in the cup rather than a glass 🤣🤣
Oh that works well too! Nice!! 😍
This looks so scrumptious❤️ However is it okay to eat banana in the mornings? I heard diabetics should avoid bananas 😔
I don’t have a particular problem with bananas- I think they’re wonderful! But they do indeed require insulin for the carbs! 🍌
Greetings from Chicago. Great video. How many carbs did plan for this chia pudding?
Looks good! 😀
Yay!! I'm glad you think so!!! ❤️
Hi , I’ve learned a lot from your channel my four year old baby is type 1 since he was two . His lab result comes out normal except his triglycerides is 113 suppose to be
You were excellent in Homeland 😉. BTW I’m type 1 as well.
Thank you! And hello my fellow diabuddy! 👋
I've tried to make chia pudding before, but never measured the ingredients so there was too much liquid! I shall try again using your quantities.
I found your channel recently after looking for videos on the freestyle libre and I was like...hang on, she looks familiar! I'm going to try making your cookies tomorrow :)
Oh good luck with the new quantities! I've spent a little time trialing the measurements - so I hope this helps you indeed!! And enjoy those oat cookies too! I think they're a nice sweet treat without too much carb/sugar! Happy making AND baking!!! 😍💕
Thank you, the chia seed pudding was much better with your quantities! The cookies are really good too, I will try some add-ins next time. I should have said in my original comment, where I recognised you from was Homeland, I hope I didn't sound creepy!
This is an awesome and such an easy recipe and such a blessing for blood SUGARS!!!!!!! I usually use coconut milk (unsweetened offc ;))) , love the taste of that milk!! but never tried with so many nuts and bananas hmmmm will def def try that. I usually just use mangoes on top to eat it like a desert!! helps me a lot with digestion as well!! thank you Andrea.. big love and love your cooking videos
Ohhhh some great suggestions here - thank you so much for sharing!! And I too love coconut milk - maybe time to mix it up! And mangos on top - yes. please!!! Awesome ideas and suggestions - thank you so much for sharing!!! ❤️💙❤️
Thanks for the video, raisins doesn't increase the blood sugar in the morning?
So how much insulin did you take for this breakfast?
It's 15 grams of carbs so, 1 unit?
Please let me know
BTW, love your videos❤❤❤
It's helped me a lot with my BG levels and you've given me a lot of determination
Love you 😘
Thank you so very much!!! I took 1 unit for 15g of carbs, yes! Correct! But this is my individual carb ratio - we're all different! Definitely work with your doctor to find out what your ratio is! I'm so proud of you my friend!! Keep up the awesome, amazing work!! Love to you too!!! 😘
@@ShesDiabetic Oh My God
You actually replied
Thank you so much
It means so much to me
And thanks for the information about the carbs and the carb ratios
Will definitely work it out with my doctor
Thank you so much❤
@@adrijakiran9089 oh course!!! You are so very welcome!!! Good luck with finding your ratios and keep up the awesome work my friend!!! ☺️
How are you doing these days? Miss you!
Can you tell me if the manufacturer adds palm oil to your products?
No palm oil in these products that I've shown - none in the chia seeds, milk, nuts or nut butter. I try to really avoid palm oil and make sure my ingredients are as clean as possible. (ie just that ingredient, no unnecessary additives) - I hope this helps!
You okay Andrea? It’s been a few Sundays since this video
Yes
Can i put this in the freezer?
I’ve never tried it- but I can’t see why not!! Maybe try to freeze one and see how it defrosts? Let us know!! ❤️
Could you eat this before bed to avoid high sugar levels in the morning?
all those toppings I was told is a no no especially banana high in sugar, what gives.
Im here because alien isolation🤣👍👍👍
Yay! Welcome! :-)
Hello, Andrea! It is always encouraging to see you smile :)
While doing some web-research for my T1D niece I came across a book by Dr. Ponder called Sugar Surfing. Members of a forum it was discussed on had a rather positive opinion on it. What is your opinion on this book? It was also mentioned as one of the top 20 T1D books on some site.
Just an idea: maybe your channel can benefit from a book-review section if you feel like it?
Please stay safe on the outside and peacefully-joyful on the inside) It's a pity you are not as active on your FB page btw :))
I think a book review section is an excellent idea! I've not read Sugar Surfing but I've heard of it for sure and will give it a go!!! Thank you for the recommendation! One of my favourite books I've read diabetes wise is Bright Spots and Landmines by Adam Brown - it's such an excellent collection of thoughts and actionable steps for better blood sugar control - I highly recommend it! And I'll get working on that book review section - great idea!! 🌞
@@ShesDiabetic I am glad you liked the idea. I have more though if you are interested :D
i like it with some sugar free cocoa powder, it gives a nice choclity color and btw cocoa balances ur damn sugar level :)
OH YES PLEASE! Win Win WIN!!! Thanks for sharing!
Amanda Ripley from Alien Isolation?
Correct!
Thought it was, recognised it as soon as I heard your voice
Are the chia seeds whole or ground?
Whole! 😍
She's Diabetic Thanks. Trying it tonight!
I type 1 diabetes
Hello Diabuddy!
