Wow, where do I even start? After an amazingly interesting, fun and touching 24 hours on the Baltic Sea, there are so many impressions to take in. All the fantastic people I’ve met and that have inspired me. The success stories. All the incredible speakers. The community. The energy. The happiness. To attend the world’s […]
How do you feel when you find out that someone has been lying to you? You feel cheated, stupid and end up having trust issues. It doesn’t even have to be full-on lying, it can also be a few mis-truths, or not telling you the whole story so that you can’t put things into context. […]
Do you remember when you were little and your mom would make you these amazing, perfectly fried pancakes? Well, I do. And I’ve been missing them a little since I cut out grains from my diet, a good few years ago now. Throughout the years, I’ve been trying one low carb pancake recipe after the […]
Do you have to make shopping lists when you go grocery shopping, just so you won’t forget half of what you went out to get in the first place? Or, have you ever underestimated the power of a to do list, and missed to call that one person you really had to speak to? No? […]

Especially if you’re planning to travel far, across the oceans and time zones. Travelling with diabetes isn’t impossible by any means. I’d say it’s actually the opposite. You just have to know and prepare properly […]
Is there such a thing as eating too much fat? It’s been widely proven by now that eating fat isn’t bad for you. But just how much fat is too much fat? And especially on a low(er) carbohydrate eating plan? Let’s go back a couple of steps first… When you eat something, your body starts […]
Diabetes gets in the way of life sometimes. And the other way around, too. But that’s the topic of another story. Being such a big part of our lives, it would be weird if it didn’t mix in and mash up your plans sometimes. Sometimes we’re talking about interrupted sleep, another time it’s an unplanned […]
Diabetes Expert – that’s a bold statement! Being an expert, you have to be perfect, don’t you?
