Here Goes...

So where do I begin? Well, my name is Emma and I live in Falkirk, Scotland. I live with my husband Allan and my three fur-babies (Stookie, Sheldon and Skye).


I am a MASSIVE food lover. Always have been. However... on 21st December 2022 (just a few short weeks ago) I was diagnosed as Type 1 Diabetic. WOW. It absolutely knocked me for six. So, I thought that I would start this blog as a way of documenting my journey with Type 1 as a food lover. I don't even know if anyone will read this but it'll be good to get my thoughts out of my head and on to the screen. If you are reading this - hello!

They always have the same staples such as Steak Pie, Lasagne, Fish and Chips etc and then a few other different things. We hadn't booked but managed to get a table straight away - it was very quiet for a Friday evening but I suppose that has to be expected on 20th January. I'm still a tad wary since my diagnosis of ordering "draught" fizzy drinks in case they don't give me 'diet' when I ask for it so I opted for a Diet Irn Bru as it comes in a can. For my starter I chose the Salsa Nachos. I was that hungry that I ate them as soon as they arrived at the table without taking a picture - I had been checking my background insulin (Levemir) in the afternoon so had nothing to eat from breakfast (around 8am) and this was now around 6.30pm. This was my first meal using Fiasp insulin...
