    from a podcast: routine is king right now, which you talk about but even if it's a simple as I must get out of bed before 7, keeping it simple, but consistent, check up on friends often! (call vs text)

    Couldn't agree more. Think a lot of people only see the chaotic side of me without realizing there is a lot of order to make this chaos happen.

    Hey Erik, if you are still experiencing dawn phenomenon, you might want to check out the automatic bolus branch of loop. It would automatically increase your bolus as your Bs increases. Just search for it on the loop FB group for more info.

    That sounds like a good project. I also saw a new branch got published so will have to investigate what has changed (or is it the auto bolus?)

    Which editing software do you use? Stay healthy. India and especially Bangalore has many Ayurvedic or herbal diabetic solutions. Please try to get them, please make use of this opportunity and God bless you. Following your diabadas site. Realy very nice, interesting and informative.
