  • 10 things I wish I'd known sooner about living with type 1 diabetes

    10 things I wish I'd known sooner about living with type 1 diabetes
    Dec 18 2025
    I know what you’re thinking… surely there’s more than 10 things?

    You’d be correct.

    But if I really thought about all the things I wish I'd known sooner about living with type 1 diabetes, I’d be here forever. Because trying to wade through the chaos that is managing this ridiculous chronic illness is a constant learning curve.

    Type 1 diabetes a never-ending game, a quest that is impossible to complete - and one that we’re often left to figure out alone. Despite the best of intentions from loved ones, and even if you have access to amazing healthcare teams, 24/7/365, it’s us.

    And we don’t know what we don’t know - until we’re forced to confront it for the first time with critical urgency and a double down arrow…

    BUT! I have found that are certain things - tools, information, perspectives - that I’ve gathered in my almost thirty years of living with type 1 diabetes that have helped. A lot. And I’d quite like to go back and give them to my younger self - because she had a tough time of it for a while.

    So whether you’re newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes or you’ve been doing this for a while, hopefully there’s something in here for you.

    Dec 11 2025
    ‘Think about the 20% of things that make 80% of the difference.’Last week I spoke about my own experience of using a tubed vs tubeless automated insulin delivery system to manage my type 1 diabetes. But for a full breakdown of the current hybrid closed loop systems on the market, I knew I had to call in some expert help.John Pemberton’s wisdom and knowledge was made abundantly clear in his recent episode of Type 1 on 1. The diabetes specialist dietician, diabetes technology consultant, diabetes educator, type 1 diabetic and founder of The Glucose Never Lies spoke candidly to me about why he dedicates so much of his time to building an online resource to help people living with type 1 diabetes.This episode is a special focus on the four main automated insulin delivery (AID) insulin pump systems currently on the market, using John’s helpful superhero personas to take a deep dive into each one, and highlight the most important features among this almighty line up.Spoiler: They’re all great, and there is no wrong choice.But if you’re curious about insulin pumps and haven’t yet been able to find a way to compare them all, this one’s for you. The automated insulin delivery systems we dig into in this episode are:Tandem Control IQ: Control and flexibility aka Spider-ManCamAPS FX mylife Loop: Highly adaptable and strategic aka BatmanOmnipod 5: Sleek, simple, and futuristic aka Iron ManMedtronic 780G: Powerful and aggressive aka The HulkDISCLAIMER Nothing you hear on Type 1 on 1 should be taken as medical advice.

  • Omnipod 5 or MyLife Ypsopump Loop? My real world insulin pump experience

    Omnipod 5 or MyLife Ypsopump Loop? My real world insulin pump experience
    Dec 4 2025
    Trying to figure out which insulin pump might work best for your needs as a person with type 1 diabetes isn't always easy.

    With more availability comes more choice, which is a great thing. I've now used both the Omnipod 5 and MyLife Loop Ypsopump CamAPS hybrid closed loop systems, so today's episode is a little deep dive into the two based on my real world experience.

    I chat through some of the similarities and differences as I've found them, from exercise to tubing to changing the pump and alarms, speaking from my personal perspective about how they both fit into my lifestyle as someone living with type 1 diabetes. If you're considering one of these insulin pumps, or a hybrid closed loop system in general, you may find this epsiode useful!
