Thanksgiving Quick Tips!
The U.S. celebrates Thanksgiving on November 24, 2022
This Quick Tip is prompted by Thanksgiving, but the tips here apply to all food-oriented holidays, and there aren’t that many holidays that aren’t focused on food!
LOTS OF FOOD! All kinds of food … all day! If you’re new to T1D or Looping, spend a little time before the festivities begin and create a ‘cheat sheet’ with the carb, fat and protein counts for the foods that you’ll most likely be eating (and eating again).
Here are some great tips on managing Loop so that you can eat, maintain great control and just enjoy the day.
These tips show the Loop interface, but the concepts can be translated to any closed-loop system.
