Need fast-acting hypoglycemic snacks for Type 1 diabetes? As a T1D for 26 years, these are some of my go-to picks when my blood sugar drops and I need a QUICK boost. Think high-sugar, fast-digesting (acting) carbs that work immediately... because treating a low isn’t the time to wait! I always HATED glucose tabs and I don't want to be eating candy everyday- so these are some great and delicious fruity options. They help bring levels back up fast and safely and are perfect to keep in your bag, car, or bedside for peace of mind 💙 Shop my must-haves below here on LTK + stay prepared wherever you go.

The best preworkout, recovery, and muscle building stack! Everyone should be taking these two supplements. Creatine is awesome if you're lifting weights and your goal is progressive overload and EAAs are great for recovery and getting back to the gym faster and stronger. I've been taking these for a LONG time and I genuinely love these two brands.

Another hot summer day! ☀️🕶️
Calls for a lightweight, casual outfit because it's too hot for anything tight today... stay cool my friends!

Dare I say this is the color of the season and it looks good on everyone! 💕 love this workout jacket!

Something I have been LOVING has been my grip socks! I use them at the trampoline park with my kids and on my rebounder at home. They are great for Pilates workouts too! Here are some favorites below ⬇️ (these new ones from ALO are so pretty! 🩵💕)

Red Sorrel or Hibiscus Tea is great for us and there are endless benefits to drinking it! Here are just a few and a few trusted brands... I love that it's caffeine free and it's a great tea for overall beauty 💕 enjoy!

Gym girls know that hair can get gross post workouts. I love spraying this vitamin infused hair perfume in my hair before and/or after leaving the gym. It smells so good and it's a great way to feel refreshed.

#LTKselfcare #LTKfitnessgoals #LTKdayinmylife

Get ready for a breakfast date with me! We are keeping it simple with minimal makeup, just some shimmer drops, mascara, lip tint, and some messy natural hair! I recently got this curly hair brush and it is LIFE CHANGING. When I brush through my hair the waves stay in place and don't get overly frizzy. I also have been loving this hair perfume that smells incredible all day long! Simple products that enhance your natural beauty 💕

#LTKgrwm #LTKmomlife #LTKselfcare

Korean skin care I'm obsessed with! Should I get Botox? Probably but this skincare keeps my skin firm and beautiful in the meantime 💕 hydration is key in your late 30s ladies! I love these 3 products together!

#LTKmorningroutine #LTKselfcare #LTKmomlife

There are TONS of benefits to drinking dandelione and chicory root tea! Did you know this organic tea has natural detox properties in it? It is caffeine free but gives you energy, helps PMS symptoms, supports liver and kidney health, great for gut-health and digestion, helps improve insulin resistance (and blood sugar), and lowers your inflammation and oxidative stress. It's also a safe diuretic so it's great for women during their cycles (if you get bloated- you know what I mean). I love the taste and benefits!

Great for the changes in weather lately! Today I woke up with a cold and these are amazing, you can take 3 a day and it helps you feel better faster. 💕

Field day but it's chilly! 🥶
This is the most comfortable and "cute" outfit I came up with. Old navy jacket, Lulu leggings, and my go-to hat. 🧢

May favorites! Things I've been loving 💕

This lights out cream by Karuna - it's thick, it's hydrating, and my skin glows in the morning.

12% AHA body lotion is a must for these chilly days! My skin loves moisture but also needs hydration- this covers both and helps redness / bumps from KP.

Jojoba oil for hair and body - I use this everyday! Ends and mids of hair will eat this up (high porosity hair must have).

Self tanner but non toxic- this color is subtle and natural. I put it on my body and just clean the palms of my hands- next day you look like you got a glow up! 💖

One thing about me is that my nails are always done. I love these press on ones because they come in so many beautiful colors and shapes. I don't like them too long or dramatic just a little bit of length and they last weeks! Use paint on glue to make them last longer - they don't destroy your real nails either. Your welcome! 🤗

#LTKselfcare #LTKmomlife #LTKdayinmylife

I'm growing out my blonde hair and this hair oil has been a game changer. It's very hydrating and keeps the split ends away! I do hair trim myself and add 1-3 drops to my ends and mids daily. Game changer for high porosity hair (hair prone to frizz and dryness- your hair looses moisture easily).

Tip! Use a hair leave in and then a couple drops of the oil on mids / ends. I'm

#LTKMothersDay #LTKmomlife #LTKselfcare

I needed a new daytime moisturizer that firms my skin and this one is not dissapointing! I also love the collagen SPF 50. Korean skincare always amazes me! My skin is glowing and the healthiest it's ever been since using medicube and other Korean Skincare 💅💕

#LTKBeauty #LTKstorytime #LTKselfcare

If you're working out I highly recommend creatine and EAA - essential amino acids and BCAAs - branch chain amino acids. Not only does this duo help muscles it also helps your recovery and if you're a T1 like me- that matters!

#LTKfitnessgoals #LTKdayinmylife #LTKSaleAlert

Want to increase your muscle and get fit but you're not a gym person? I get it! The gym isn't my favorite so this is what I have used for the past couple years to build muscle and even do cardio at home. Message me if you have any questions on Insta (@thriving.diabetic). All links are below, enjoy!

No gym? No problem! There are endless benefits to buying a rebounder. I use my (almost) everyday and I have been using it consistently for 10 weeks now. I've noticed less inflammation in my body, and I'm feeling more energy! I also noticed slightly more definition in my waist and around my knees. This is a great, low-impact workout and you control how intense you want it to be! I love turning on fun dance music and getting my heart rate up to 150 but sometimes a light bounce for circulation is great too. This is a MUST HAVE for anyone living a healthy life style!

#LTKOver40 #LTKfitnessgoals #LTKActive

The perfect button up that everyone needs! Wear this unbuttoned to the beach or boardwalk or buttoned up and styled with jeans. It's one of my favorite pieces that I own. Similar styles below ⬇️

All my favorite things I have been loving this spring. Starting with something I use every single day- electrolytes and minerals in your water will keep you glowing and hydrated! For skin, I love this SPF and self tanner that is non-toxic (I use it twice to get a nice glow and it doesn't stain). This hair gloss by Ouai makes my hair beautiful and shiny and I need to use it more often- it does wonders. These press on nails are inexpensive and take minutes to do a full set- so easy and perfect. Finally, this blush will make you GLOW all day long and it's perfect for spring. ENJOY!!!!

My current supplement stack and WHY I take these vitamins:

COLLAGEN- keeps skin firm and beautiful
MULTI- fills my nutritional gaps
IRON + B12- if you don't eat meat, this is great for energy
MORINGA- reduce inflammation and helps keep my blood sugar balanced
SPEARMINT LEFT- balances my hormones and eliminated my hormonal acne (A MUST HAVE for me)
HAIR COMPLX- I take this if I skip my mutivitamin to keep my hair healthy (anything hair vitamin works for this, I couldn't find the link for this one but it's on Amazon)

NEW finds I love at Abercrombie! How gorgeous is this sweater, it also comes in another color too (tagged below) and there are some great finds for springtime and summer.

Basics I wear on repeat! 🔁 As a busy mom, diabetic, teacher... I love basics I can just throw together. Plain black shoes, and a black zip up is key... oh and also a hat I can throw on when my hair is a mess 👍🤣 these are my favorite basics that still look nice and put together even though you may not be.

#LTKActive #LTKfitnessgoals #LTKdayinmylife

Sports moms know it only takes a few basic pieces to look stylish. Find an outfit that you can wear to workout, take a nap, hop on a flight, cook dinner, and go to endless games in. For me, it's a fun and bright color of lululemon leggings with a basic zip up workout top! I also always have a huge tote or bag with me for snacks (for type 1 diabetes and for kids), water bottles, SPF, and game schedules! I will wear this outfit on repeat all season long and mix and match with other active wear I own. If you love sports mom gear- stay tuned! 😎
