You'll get used to it soon, I promise, it all seems so complicated at first but you get accustomed to it quickly and then it's second nature, I didn't believe that 12 months ago when people said it to me but these days it's just something I have to do to keep the day on track 🙂

You look pretty steady most of the time so I think you probably need to work on your mealtime doses. We need some before and after tests - just before the meal and then 2 hours after, then we can start to see what needs changing. As I said before, you can't do it all at once, is there a particular mealtime that feels like the easiest one to start with? If you can start to get good habits just at breakfast time, or dinner time, then it will eventually be easier to start to get back in to good habits with the other meals too.

Remember - baby steps 🙂
