Hey Diabuddy thank you for listening to show, send me some positive vibes with your favorite part of this episode.In this episode, Coach Ken sits down with Kelly Schmidt, diabetic dietitian and longtime Type 1 diabetes advocate, to have a deep conversation about one of the biggest topics in diabetes right now:With medications like Ozempic and other GLP-1-based therapies becoming more common, there are a lot of questions:1. Are these just weight-loss medications?2. Can people with Type 1 diabetes benefit from them?3. How do you use them safely?4. What happens with food, muscle, digestion, and long-term health?Kelly shares her personal experience using GLP-1 medications since 2017 and explains why these medications are about much more than weight loss. The conversation explores how GLP-1s impact appetite, digestion, hormones, inflammation, and blood sugar management.Ken and Kelly also discuss the difference between single agonists and dual agonists, why the “strongest” medication is not always the best medication, and why having conversations with your healthcare team is critical when deciding what works for your individual needs. The episode also dives into some of the biggest concerns people with Type 1 diabetes have:Can GLP-1 medications worsen gastroparesis?Do they cause bone loss?How do you protect muscle while using these medications?What role do protein and strength training play?Kelly shares practical guardrails around using these medications, including the importance of adequate nutrition, resistance training, and building systems that support your health—not just chasing a number on the scale.This episode is an honest conversation about a rapidly evolving area of diabetes care and how people with Type 1 diabetes can ask better questions, understand their options, and make informed decisions with their healthcare team.

Hey Diabuddy thank you for listening to show, send me some positive vibes with your favorite part of this episode.In this solo episode I dive into one of the most important — and most misunderstood — concepts in diabetes management: SUSTAINABILITY.After reflecting on my own recent challenges with blood sugar fluctuations, stress, sleep, nutrition, and routine, I break down why even people who “know what they're doing” can fall out of alignment — and why that's not failure, it's reality.This episode challenges the obsession with A1C and Time in Range as the main metrics of success and instead how reframing the conversation around blood sugar stability, mental health, flexibility, leads to longer diabetes stability. 

Nick and Jonathan talk about what they'd like to see in a potential new Browns coach. Then, Ken Carman of the Ken Carman Show with Antony Lima joins the show to defend an argument.
