Type 1 diabetic

Hey guys! I decided to try IF for weight loss. I’m currently on ozempic and was wondering: if I go low and take sips of Gatorade to bring my blood glucose back up, is that considered breaking the fast? I always carry the small 80 calories cool blue Gatorade bottles with me in case I go low. Also, any advice would be appreciated! I’ve lost 100lbs on ozempic and I’m struggling to lose the last 50lbs 😭

I don’t know if I would mess w your sugars like that. Type 1 is already hard enough, then to add IF, that’s a scary road. Especially if you live alone, don’t do it!

But if you’re stubborn..😜 Ive heard anything under 50 calories, you’re still in a fast. However, I think Gatorade would be a quick burn and then you would just be sipping all day. You’re probably gonna face that w any fast acting sugar. I would think you’re gonna have to do a fast acting w a slow acting so your sugars stay up. Also you can’t take a hypoglycemic, I don’t know my friend, but I’d be interested to hear how it goes, even though I advise against it.
