Introduction

Hello! My name is Katie and I recently graduated from Sonoma State University in May and moved back home to San Diego. I love spending time with fun-loving, energetic people and learning from them and their experiences.

Has Diabetes affected your life? Share your experience with us!

I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes about three and a half years ago at 20 years old. I just graduated college and would love to take a year or so off to travel a bit, but sometimes I feel held back because of diabetes. I have everything very under control and check my blood sugars extremely often. I am trying to monitor and still get used to exercising more intensely, like I used to before I was diagnosed, without my blood sugars dropping too often. I would love to talk to people with type 1 diabetes that has done the things, or wants to do the things, that I hope to accomplish in the future :)

What would you like to experience from this group and how often would you like to meet?

I would love to meet and relate to others with type 1 diabetes for mutual support! I have actually never done any "meet up" yet, this is the first group I joined. I think that it would be nice to meet up about once a week, I guess!
