“Surprise! I’m still diabetic” that was great 🤣 I feel like I’ve used this line so many times in my life having to remind people that I live with it every moment and it doesn’t magically go away with diet and exercise 😅
Good to see you back, my daughter- 8 years old got diagnosed with T1D last September and your videos really helped me a lot during the past few months. Please keep posting.
I’m so so sorry for your daughter’s diagnosis…and thank you for sharing with me that the videos have been a source of support - being invited into your home via the videos and helping in any small way is a huge honor for me. I’ll keep posting ❤️
It feels like Christmas whenever we get an Andrea video 😂. Congratulations on all your achievements last year! I'm hoping for a house tour video at some point!
Love your uplifting energy and all the info you share! Congratulations to you and David and it's OK to take the time you need to care for yourself. I am a 53 year diabetic still using pens and Dexcom but wanting to try an Omnipod 5 or Mobi...(no tubes please!)? Updates on your Omnipod use and how you pair it with Dexcom would be helpful to hear and see .
Thank you so much for these supportive words! I will definitely continue to make content about my Omnipod experience, because, like you I was in the exact same position - no tubes please! I love the no tubes but I think currently tslim has the better algorithm. But will continue to make more content around it all for sure!!!
Wow! I was so surprised I was 2 minutes late for the old 3pm/10am/9am ct time slot. Welcome back! My main question is about transferring your diabetes care back to the US. I remember how it was for u during COVID when u were at your mom’s for an extended time and fretting that your care was across the pond. By the way, happy birthday [again] yes I know u told me in your LIVE last year “Marina,my birthday is February 5th.” And knowing my math that’s 2/5/86 You’re a little over 4 years older than me
Thank you Marina! I thought you might notice the upload time being the usual ☺️ I'm definitely going to make a video about my transition, which is still very much ongoing, but I feel like I have enough information to speak to it from my experience. And thank you for the birthday wishes!!
Wow! Congrats! I’m surprised you came back to the US. Can I ask how you are managing now with having to use private insurance? If that is too personal, I understand but I’m always jealous of other countries’ healthcare being. T1.
OMG I am just editing a video on this very subject right now! I'm going into all the details about this, because I think it's of value! I hope to have it up either this Sunday or next! In short...it's been a NIGHTMARE 😂
@@ShesDiabetic yes! I agree! I started a new job last year and have a high deductible health care plan here in Kansas. Yeah, it’s a lot. Trying to manage everything, and get the stupid coupons, and pay for it….I feel like it’s almost a full time job. 🤦🏼♀️ I can’t imagine coming from another country after you have been abroad for a bit.
May the Lord Jesus bless your marriage & your health, your new home and keep you both safe & well. Congratulations from northern Michigan, the mitten state!!
So true!! Much positivity to celebrate, and I feel very very lucky for this!!! Thank you for the warm welcome and wishes!! And I love your name by the way! 🐶 ❤️
How is the change of medical plans effecting you? Eli lily just announced a big reduction in the price of insulin and I think that is going to help us out a lot. Also did you switch yet to the G-7 Dexcom?
@@ShesDiabetic glad you saw it. I now in my first few days of tandem pump and dexcom 6. How magic it all is!!. I need to rewatch how to wear the pump in bed
I’m in a position that you are in, I want to vlog and share my story. I’ve been diabetic for 31 years. It was a struggle at first, being homeless and not having insulin was hard. I lived on the streets with no fridge or protection. Now 30 years later I’m stable at 6.9%, which I thank dex G5. Now I’m using the G6, it was a absolute game changer for sure. My insulin was also changed to Ryzodeg 70/30. I feel a lot better and put the weight back on, which is so hard to loose. Im 46 and experiencing another change in my life. I’m new to the channel, and would like to see stories with the Diabetic community. I am always watching videos to see where technology is at. I can say you do look happy and healthy. Q&A I would like to know 1) how did you manage your sugars when moving? 2) what was the menu at the Wedding? 3) what is your go to snacks? 4) what do you do in a situation when you have low sugars? 5) How did you feel after trying Dex sensors? It is a learning experience for me as life goes on. Being a t1 for 31 years, life has been up and down. I’ve had my fair share of hospital stays. Been in a few comas for unstable sugars, and have had infections. Now I am doing well and eat regularly and don’t exercise much. My body won’t let me and that is a struggle. Don’t hesitate to ask me questions, I am here for another one. Advice, or advice given is openly excepted. I appreciate your vlog, and so glad your ok ❤️🦋
Would you consider making a video comparing the experience of living with T1D in, say, five different countries where you might have followers from whom to gather information? (*since you have followers all over)
Hello Andrea, congratulations on your Wedding. God bless your new church. Although I don’t know him at all and also you until couple of days ago through watching few of your videos, Davids are always unique! 😊. I am T1D since 10 years ago and I am 42. I am in the process to move from the insulin pens to pump and need help. Are you still using Tandem? Why you dumped Medtronic? Is it because of the dexcom sensors ? Which pump would you recommend now? The new Medtronic or Tandem ? Thank you.
*Andrea!! Why NYC??* 🤒 Why not Florida!! People are FLEEING the Blue states in DROVES!! I will be Praying for your Safety there!! Anyway, you are simply Amazing that you can go through all those changes! moving! marriage! etc.! etc.! with type 1 diabetes! I guess the G6 and the Tandem take real good care of you! If I may ask, what were your highest and lowest blood sugars through all of your excitement?
I am here after i came to know you are behind The Voice of Female Nomad from Ghost recon Wildlands i just completed the game it was awesome. And You are Such A ❤ vibe 😊
It's soo awesome to see you back Andrea!🥰🥳 Very Happy for you and David!❤️ Missed you a lot 🥺 also yes we want a video on your wedding and diabetes management!
Happy to see you back and that things are going well! I'm new to your channel (not new to DM1 though), and I'd like to know your exercise routine, if you haven't already covered it. Thanks!
My fiancé has T1D(LADA) and tbh I'm very scared of how it will affect our life together... She works out about twice a day and eats food in very small portions... And injects insulin in the morning and at night... Some people on UA-cam advise on doing intermittent fasting but doctors in general do not seem to prefer doing anything that involves fasting... And she has been following conventional medical advise... What are your thoughts about fasting and working out in general for a T1D?
Welcome to New York. I’m from Queens New York myself. Hope you’re doing well. So nice to see you again. ❤… Congratulations on your wedding. You look Fabulous 😬
Disappointed that one of your changes wasn’t being cured!! Marriage and NY (and endlessly plate spinning?) really suit you, you look great! Congratulations on it all.
WOW! girl, what a year. so good to see you again. one question; did you transition to the Dexcom G7? since it hasn't been released in the US yet, how will that work? Welcome to America
Thank you! It feels great to be back! I haven’t transitioned full time to the G7, no. I was trying it out in the UK because I’m part of the Warrior Program there, but again, not full time just yet. I’d really want to switch fully only when it connects to the tslim x2 since I use that basal iQ system and it relies on the DEXCOM G6 (only) right now to do that - so though I’m tinkering with the G7, no official moves have been made (though I do love what I’ve experienced thus far on the G7!!!
Nice to hear from you Andrea. I was really sorry to hear about your Dad. But it sounds like you have lots of very positive news too! Are you still pursuing acting? If so I look forward to seeing you in something soon. I feel like I will point at the screen and yell 'I know her! She's diabetic!' :D
How was it going back to being a diabetic in the US opposed to the Uk . Im in the Uk my daughters t1d. Also would love to see and hear about your wedding. Also how is your mom xx
*Andreaaaaa!* So happy to see you back on and very glad it was just normal life changes keeping you off UA-cam. \ Congratulations on your marriage! Sorry about David's finger. My diabetes hasn't gone away either. What the heck?! P.s Your house looks so fancy.
Fantastic to see you again and congrats on the wedding. Looking forward to upcoming videos. Any chance of some cooking ones?🤣 The oat cookies go down a treat, especially with my son!!
Just yesterday, I was talking with my wife about your videos, and I literally said, “I think she’s taking a break from videos… she probably has a lot going on!” It’s good to see you back on UA-cam again!!
Great to see you back Andrea and to know that you are well. Congratulations to you and David on your marriage. I look forward to your videos - they are always very informative and so well presented. Best wishes for new life in New York.
Ah!! It's so wonderful to connect with you! And thank you for all the good wishes on all fronts! It feels so good to be back and I look forward to connecting more!! Thank you for this encouragement!!!
My daughter just got her insulin pump and I see you use the same cannula insert. On our 3rd changed we ended up with a bad insertion and the tube was bent over and not inserted so, no insulin for her. In your experience what causes this and any prevention tips would be very helpful. Thank you in advance.
Just love how real you are❤. I read in Time or some mag that the top 3 most stressful life changes to make; 3. 1st home purchase, 2. Move, 1. Get Married. And each one of those are super stressful all by themselves. Glad you are taking care of you, meaning you two. Take all the time you need. Would love to have you back soon, but you can never get the time back. Hang in there and congratulations on all of it.
I found your videos when I was first dx'd 4 years ago. Your relaxed demeanor always calmed my "diabetic nerves" 🤭 Congratulations on your wedding & move to NY! I'm on Long Island.
I'm engaged, and trying to figure out navigating numbers. Also will be moving to England next year from Canada for 6 months for school! Alllll of this insight you mentioned would be sooo helpful!
Congratulations !🎉 I am very happy for you I miss your videos to the point that every time I go to UA-cam, I go to your channel to see if you upload a new video. I wish you great blood sugar, but don't forget us, we miss you 😭🧃
Oh thank you so so much for these kind words. I miss you guys too...I PROMISE! I'm trying to work to make shorter videos so I can release more of them because currently it takes me so so long to shoot and edit a video because of their length, I promise, I'm working on it! I'm not going anywhere, and you are equally as important to me - if not more! Believe me!!
Thank you for all this love!!! It is a lot lol - it’s actually a perfect way to describe it 🤣 It feels so good to be back - thank you for this warm welcome!! 🤩
Great to see you and congratulations on the wedding, move etc. I'm hoping to get my pump by the end of the year and your videos definitely help. Need to curb the comfort eating though 😔
Thank you!! I SO hear you on the comfort eating front, there are so many times when I'm stressed and overwhelmed that all I want to do is eat carbs and pasta and bread and just...ALL THE CARBS to feel that safety...so please please please know you are not alone in this at all!!! ❤️
Yay a new video! It's so wild to me, that I googled you years ago because I liked your performance on Homeland, and then found out you're diabetic too and have been following along ever since!
Congrats on all the things! Way to make it through some of the top life stressors all in one year! My son was dx two years ago and our biggest hurdle is still swagging a meal. I use my scale all the time and we don't eat out much, ir is just easier. But a video on guessing carbs counts would be cool. Also, not sure if you went through your teenage years with T1 or if you were diagnosed after but if you did what is the best piece of advice for helping a teenager without stepping on their toes? Glad to see you back!
Oh Oh OH! Firstly, I'm so sorry for your son's diagnosis - it's never an easy time, but I'm sure the last few years in particular have come with their own challenges, that's for sure. I LOVE your video ideas...THANK! YOU! I've made a few videos about carb counting, but never guessing which is what I do 99.999% of the time (not at all always with success) but I could give it my best shot to explain! And also - the teenage advice video - I LOVE THIS IDEA. I'm going to for sure add this to the list - thank you - that is such a fabulous video suggestion!! Wishing you and your son all the very best and thank you so much for all your kind words and support! ❤️
Do you know if there are any cool tricks to rember if and when you took insulin? I'm 55, and have had a horrible time remembering if I took the shot (no pump). After 34 years, it has gotten REAL hard to keep track. You are still young, but you might know older type 1s that are starting to forget. I use a lot of helpful reminders, but they don't seem to work anymore. My A1Cs are good, but it has been an average of the rollercoaster ride of both highs and lows. Glad to see you back.
I don't use a "smart-insulin pen" but I believe they keep track of when you took your last injection and also keep track of insulin on board. You may want to ask your endocrinologist about getting these.
Congratulations!!! I’m so happy for you both. I kind of figured you were busy with life but it didn’t stop me from checking occasionally or missing hearing about how you manage your life with T1D. You just don’t know which tips and tricks might be helping someone else. Will you be getting the Dexcom G7 when it integrates with Tandem? Thanks for sharing. Glad to see you back. Happy furniture shopping😊
🐁Hey Andrea!! Congratulations on 1,2, and 3!! I was worried when I hadn't seen posts for such a long time. Your enthusiasm is very infectious, and you smile is contagious. I look forward to more videos on how you coped with the stress of all of this. I have been T1D for 58 years, dxd age 12. I think your videos are educational and inspiring to younger diabetics. How is the G7 working out? Take care, and looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Mike Chapel Hill NC
Went through that about 25 years ago, shortly after my son was born. International moves ... I got used to it, and so did my wife as we both had multiple moves in the previous 5 years including (for my wife) europe-US-europe. Marriage was the easiest part - no family or friends invited, no rings, no party: just got in front of the officer at the commune with all the international paperwork, and it was done. Building the house in Switzerland was another matter, complicated by having to deal with the young child as well and all family living 800km away, but we now got 2 more houses now... one learns by doing. And yes...I'm still married with the same ❤person who made me move to Switzerland. T1D makes us stronger than others I believe.
You are a rey of sunshine! Congratulations on your wedding day... And many blessings sent your way!!! And congrats on your new homeownership journey!!!! I'm glad you are back!!!

Hi Andrea, it's your Type 1 Diabetic buddy here. Welcome back and glad to see you back I have missed seeing you which always cheers me up and wondered what you been upto. Firstly congratulations on marrying David and the house move to NY, wow alot has happened in one year it can be very stressful arranging a wedding and moving at the same time as well as exciting which can play havoc with your Diabetes which is extra challenging if your a Type 1 Diabetic 😅. Good to see you again and thank you for updating us on what has been going on in your life, I will look forward to a house tour lol and more videos of updates on your wedding and other stuff. See you soon 😊 👋 🇬🇧 Sarah 💜 xx
So Happy to see you again! Hope NY is treating you well. Looking forward to more videos when you get the time. Take Care, Kelly from the Outer Banks of NC.
Lovely to see you again. Wow lots of things happening. I’m hoping you’ll share how you managed your diabetes through it all. Stress and lack of a routine wrecks havoc on my numbers. Also I’m just curious…..was there a reason you moved to NYC?
I had wondered where you had went to Andrea. Congratulations to you both. Well done, good luck and keep going. Great to see you back, life is treating you well and all is good. Now more videos please.
Nice to hear from you and I’m glad everything is well. Congratulations on your wedding. Hope your blood glucose is ok. I’m finding it a little difficult but with the Libre sensor I hope it can settle down.
I'm going to be married on 13th may this year and in one week getting my first insulin pump (omnipod dash) so ... i would be very interested in this type of video 😍😍😍
Congratulations on everything! 🎉 I'm a recent subscriber with gestational diabetes (amateur, I know 😄) and I have learned so much from you and other T1D content creators on how food affects blood sugar levels. Thanks a lot! Would love and watch any content of yours, since you seem just so lovely, funny and compassionate 😊
I found your channel oddly enough during the time you were on your hiatus! I love your content so much! Glad to see you're back, congrats on the move, and your wedding. ❤ Glad to see whatever new things you get up to.
I can’t wait to hear more about how you managed your diabetes (and tips and tricks!) during your wedding and an international move! I’ve missed your videos 💕

Thank you!! I'm looking forward to making more, I've missed you guys SO MUCH!!!!
Has it been easier to get your diabetic supplies in the us? Did you find new doctors/ how do you like them?
Congratulations Andrea!!
Thank you Frank!!
I found your videos when I was first dx'd 4 years ago. Your relaxed demeanor always calmed my "diabetic nerves" 🤭
Congratulations on your wedding & move to NY! I'm on Long Island.
Oh thank you so much for sharing this with me - that means a lot!!! And hello to my fellow Tri-Stater!!
Congrats on the wedding!
Thank you!! 🥰
Congratulations on your recent marriage and move!! Wow what an exciting time. I too am a type 1 diabetic.
Thank you my Diabuddy!!! 💙
I would love to see videos about you being an actor and dealing with diabetes.
Congrats on the move! Hope you’re enjoying NY so far 😊
Thank you!! I really am!!!
I'm engaged, and trying to figure out navigating numbers. Also will be moving to England next year from Canada for 6 months for school! Alllll of this insight you mentioned would be sooo helpful!
Oh my goodness - it's like we're trading spaces! Freaky Friday!! 😅 I'm so excited for you move and all your upcoming adventures!!!!!!
Congratulations !🎉
I am very happy for you I miss your videos to the point that every time I go to UA-cam, I go to your channel to see if you upload a new video. I wish you great blood sugar, but don't forget us, we miss you
😭🧃
Oh thank you so so much for these kind words. I miss you guys too...I PROMISE! I'm trying to work to make shorter videos so I can release more of them because currently it takes me so so long to shoot and edit a video because of their length, I promise, I'm working on it! I'm not going anywhere, and you are equally as important to me - if not more! Believe me!!
Happy to see you back!❤
Thank you!! I'm so happy to be back!!!
Congratulations on everything!!! 🎉🎉🎉 It's a lot lol 😂. Welcome back!!! 😊
Thank you for all this love!!! It is a lot lol - it’s actually a perfect way to describe it 🤣 It feels so good to be back - thank you for this warm welcome!! 🤩
Great to see you and congratulations on the wedding, move etc. I'm hoping to get my pump by the end of the year and your videos definitely help. Need to curb the comfort eating though 😔
Thank you!! I SO hear you on the comfort eating front, there are so many times when I'm stressed and overwhelmed that all I want to do is eat carbs and pasta and bread and just...ALL THE CARBS to feel that safety...so please please please know you are not alone in this at all!!! ❤️
Terrible disease, I am also type 1 and to control it is a daily striving. But let's keep up the fight.
God bless us.
It really is a battle, but we're up for it - let's keep fighting and have some laughs along the way hopefully! ❤️

Thank you!

Thank you again! 😀
Where have you been?
I was getting worried
Yay a new video!
It's so wild to me, that I googled you years ago because I liked your performance on Homeland, and then found out you're diabetic too and have been following along ever since!
Oh how neat! Thank you so much for taking the time to Google me!! And for following along here too! Such a pleasure and delight to have you here!! ☺️
Congrats!
Thank you!!
Hello Andrea ,
So good to see you are OK , and to hear your wonderful news. Congratulations to you and David , lovely wedding photos.
❤️
Thank you so much Rex!!! It's so lovely to hear from you too!!
Congrats on all the things! Way to make it through some of the top life stressors all in one year! My son was dx two years ago and our biggest hurdle is still swagging a meal. I use my scale all the time and we don't eat out much, ir is just easier. But a video on guessing carbs counts would be cool. Also, not sure if you went through your teenage years with T1 or if you were diagnosed after but if you did what is the best piece of advice for helping a teenager without stepping on their toes? Glad to see you back!
Oh Oh OH! Firstly, I'm so sorry for your son's diagnosis - it's never an easy time, but I'm sure the last few years in particular have come with their own challenges, that's for sure. I LOVE your video ideas...THANK! YOU! I've made a few videos about carb counting, but never guessing which is what I do 99.999% of the time (not at all always with success) but I could give it my best shot to explain! And also - the teenage advice video - I LOVE THIS IDEA. I'm going to for sure add this to the list - thank you - that is such a fabulous video suggestion!! Wishing you and your son all the very best and thank you so much for all your kind words and support! ❤️
Do you know if there are any cool tricks to rember if and when you took insulin? I'm 55, and have had a horrible time remembering if I took the shot (no pump). After 34 years, it has gotten REAL hard to keep track. You are still young, but you might know older type 1s that are starting to forget. I use a lot of helpful reminders, but they don't seem to work anymore. My A1Cs are good, but it has been an average of the rollercoaster ride of both highs and lows. Glad to see you back.
I don't use a "smart-insulin pen" but I believe they keep track of when you took your last injection and also keep track of insulin on board. You may want to ask your endocrinologist about getting these.
@@anitastokar98 I will ask her about that. Thanks!
Busy!!
Just a tad! LOL! But all good things!!
Congratulations!!! I’m so happy for you both. I kind of figured you were busy with life but it didn’t stop me from checking occasionally or missing hearing about how you manage your life with T1D. You just don’t know which tips and tricks might be helping someone else. Will you be getting the Dexcom G7 when it integrates with Tandem? Thanks for sharing. Glad to see you back. Happy furniture shopping😊
🐁Hey Andrea!! Congratulations on 1,2, and 3!! I was worried when I hadn't seen posts for such a long time. Your enthusiasm is very infectious, and you smile is contagious. I look forward to more videos on how you coped with the stress of all of this. I have been T1D for 58 years, dxd age 12. I think your videos are educational and inspiring to younger diabetics. How is the G7 working out?
Take care, and looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

Went through that about 25 years ago, shortly after my son was born. International moves ... I got used to it, and so did my wife as we both had multiple moves in the previous 5 years including (for my wife) europe-US-europe. Marriage was the easiest part - no family or friends invited, no rings, no party: just got in front of the officer at the commune with all the international paperwork, and it was done.
Building the house in Switzerland was another matter, complicated by having to deal with the young child as well and all family living 800km away, but we now got 2 more houses now... one learns by doing. And yes...I'm still married with the same ❤person who made me move to Switzerland.
T1D makes us stronger than others I believe.
You are a rey of sunshine! Congratulations on your wedding day... And many blessings sent your way!!! And congrats on your new homeownership journey!!!!
I'm glad you are back!!!
Fabulous! Oh congratulations on the move, getting married and purchased a home. How wonderful 😊❤
Thank you so much Mel!! 🥰
@@ShesDiabetic you so welcome ❤️🇦🇺

I would actually love to make this! Are there any questions/topics you have that you’d specifically be curious to hear about? ❤️
@@ShesDiabetic positioning pumps/ cgms around the wedding dress..and dealing with a possible adrenaline response on the day..but also managing a lot of delicious food...or anything wedding related really 😀

Lovely to see you again. Wow lots of things happening. I’m hoping you’ll share how you managed your diabetes through it all. Stress and lack of a routine wrecks havoc on my numbers. Also I’m just curious…..was there a reason you moved to NYC?
I had wondered where you had went to Andrea. Congratulations to you both. Well done, good luck and keep going. Great to see you back, life is treating you well and all is good. Now more videos please.
Glad to hear from you again; glad all is well. God bless, again.

Good to see you back! Now let's get you back with Carey for Season 9 of Homeland!
Congratulations Andrea, on all that exciting news. Wishing you & David every happiness in your future life together 🥰
Congratulations on everything! 🎉 I'm a recent subscriber with gestational diabetes (amateur, I know 😄) and I have learned so much from you and other T1D content creators on how food affects blood sugar levels. Thanks a lot! Would love and watch any content of yours, since you seem just so lovely, funny and compassionate 😊
Hi Andrea. Nice to see you back and congratulations
Thank you so much Kimberly!!!
Don't worry. Getting by is what happens to most of us at certain points in our lives. Not sure how the "very productive" people operate life.
I MISSED YOUUUUU! I love your wedding dress!
OMG! Congratulations with all of your new endeavors. I am so glad you are back. You look great, can’t wait for new videos!
I found your channel oddly enough during the time you were on your hiatus! I love your content so much! Glad to see you're back, congrats on the move, and your wedding. ❤ Glad to see whatever new things you get up to.
i felt so good seeing you on my main page 😭😭😍😍 I'm so happy for you!! thank you for dropping by and sharing :)
I want Alien Isolation 2 so bad! Please tell me there's something being worked on lol :D
Congratulations on everything 🎉 Great to see you back 🥰
Thank you so much Emma!!! It feels great to be back!! 🤗
I can’t wait to hear more about how you managed your diabetes (and tips and tricks!) during your wedding and an international move! I’ve missed your videos 💕
How is it adjusting to getting your diabetes supplies here vs where you came from.
