How to Navigate Food and the Holidays with T1D
The holiday season can feel like a landmine for people with T1D. You want to enjoy all your favorite foods, but you also want to keep your blood sugar in range. Doing both at the same time feels like an impossible task.
That's when things start to get stressful. You start feeling out of control, and you may even want to give up on even trying to manage T1D until after the new year.
Living with T1D during the holidays can be complicated. So I brought in an expert to help you navigate food and the holiday season with T1D.
