6 or 3 daily meals ??

Good afternoon guys !!(or days, according to the haha ​​region)

Let's see you, since I debuted they educated me with 6 meals a day to avoid hypos by mixing insulins etc ... that is, mid -morning collation, snack and dinner.

The truth is that I am better, since I am better physically, I do not arrive so hungry to the next meal and well, I have the metabolism somewhat more accelerated, but digging I have realized that currently with the insulin pump it is notnecessary, as well as as you know there is a glycemic peak of 180/220 at the time that is more than well, but they are not the same 3 peaks of those a day, which 6 do you understand?In addition, my frustration comes when I am a job and I can't even breathe, much less stop eating something ...

What happens?

Well, if I don't do them very thin and sick (it's a way of speaking haha)

Well, my hemoglobins are correct (5.5/6%), I want to say correct, because to be perfect I should not have a hypo and any hyper, but of course, then I would not be in this forum and I would not be injected with our precioushormone...

And now my question ... what would you do ??

It is perhaps the doubt that assaults me the most and the one that limits me the most, both physically and mentally ... it is difficult to live with this and take it, that I am going to tell you ... but well, I hope I do notYou judge although for some it seems a question of question.

(Another thing I have thought is for example in mid -morning and in the snack, it takes nutThere are those who throw a series in conditions ...)

A hug to all !!!!!

There are no mandatory meals.Do the ones you want and come good.With the insulins before, they made peaks, you had to take mid -morning, snack and reef, but now, with the rapids or with the bomb, you can adapt the meals much better to your rhythm of life.So take advantage of the possibilities of the pump and live the freest you can.

Some told me 5 meals Another endocrine told me that is old, when you need since I said, I am not used to breakfast, or eat so many times, I make the decision that as some say one thing and another I do not trust, I follow my normal life and I take the sugar three times and as I have a sink eating and controlling me, above that this is a continuous depression that does not have criteria I am already tired.

I eat twice a day.Sometimes one.

En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?

I have breakfast at 11:00, about 15:30 and Ceno at 9:30 p.m.Only as it has been under 90 and I anticipate that I am going to fall in hiccups because I am exercising.Don't go hungry between meals.The fewer intakes less punctures.
