Always tell someone where you are going and what time you will be back and I pack a flashlight when I hike also a map too a paper one not on your phone
I’m type 2 diabetic. I haven’t come across many videos on hiking with diabetes. This was so helpful! Thanks for sharing. 💕
Maybe a waterproof jacket and a broad brimmed hat for sun protection. Happy trails.
I’m in Australia and in addition to what you have mentioned (minus bear, human and insect spray) I bring: hat, mirror or CD to attract planes in an emergency, maybe a compression bandage for snake bites, power bank for my phone for emergencies, maybe a hiking pole, a small hand towel, pen and paper, a plastic bag for rubbish if I’m stopping for a feed, electrolyte tablets (plain water is too bland for me).. I think that’s it. If I go in summer sometimes I will take a spare top and a cooling towel for my neck but winter here is the best time for hiking.
Shannon Maloney did not mean to dislike your comment I apologize, I meant to like it lol
You need to practice with the Go Girl before you try it outside. Practice in the shower. Then practice in the bathroom. Your brain and muscles are trained not to release your bladder standing up, and it's harder than you may think. I've also found that even if you have to drop your pants and squat, the go girl can help you direct the stream away from your feet.
One of my favorite activities. I tend to go alone with my dog. Another thing to remember is to always tell someone where you are going and when you will return.
Hey janica well have a safe hike I see you got all of your Essentials that is great well have fun take care.
I love your videos 🤓 I was diagnosed a year ago... thanks for sharing this !!!
Pretty much water glucose tabs Thermal blanket and emergency pancho plus a basic syringe. Used to carry alot but after many hikes (including the AT) is was just extra weight if you are on maintained trails. Lighter made me feel better on the terrain. Hike your own hike and have fun. Trust your instincts
You are an inspiration. thank you!
Wow, we always have to think of so much stuff! Even when I have everything I feel like I’m still forgetting something.
Great timing we are going camping soon!
more food options would make for a nice video.
I'm going camping in a few weeks and this was super helpful!
Yeah, it definitely will be a help to me in the future.
I pack 8 snacks 2 sets water camelback Lunch 1 Low treatments and my glucogen ie glucogon sunblocks and decrease etc insulin pens hair ties in wrapped toilet tissue
have a great weekend Diabuddy
"People Spray!"
Lol love in Alaska, definitely got the bear spray.
Welches fruit snacks are the best
Have you reviewed Afrezza? If so what were your thoughts?
Where in the US do you have grizzly bears?
👍🏻
Always love your vids!
You can take Tylenol with the Dexcom G6.
Does your T slim connect to your cellphone
I will send you a Hug for free Don’t forget your bear spray
How do you keep the Insulin cool on a hot summer day while out hiking?
Using a Frio is best for keeping insulin cold. Check Amazon.
awesome cool 😎 😎😎 😎 😎
I have diabetes type 1 btw
Would bears be attracted to anything diabetics carry such as glucose tablets or insulin? How about lows--would your smell be good to a bear who would want to eat you?
Bears are scared of humans and will not challenge you for your food... while you're awake. Food smell is not a contributing factor to daytime bear encounters. Read up on what kind of bear etiquette is recommended in your area.
don't forget snacks in case your blood sugar levels drop while hiking
Kelvin Morris she did mention her fruit snacks
And yes Bear spray
You say reservoir so odd lol. I’ve never heard anyone pronounce it that way. I say “rez-erv-wah” 🤔
yeah, i pronounce it as "rez-av-war"
Meeting Dr IGUDIA CZcams channel was the beginning of a new life for me after using his herbs medication in curing my Diabetes disease.
