I'm Charlotte, Australian, and I'm a 17 Type 1 Diabetic. I was diagnosed on the 13th of January, 2006. I've had it for 5 and a half years, and i can honestly say i have never had good control.

Just wanted to share my answer. It's either a tie between eating popcorn, a hot dog, nachos, and a soft pretzel when I had an incredibly low blood sugar before seeing a movie with family friends and no parents, and not wanting to be an inconvenience to them, and apparently pizza dipped into some sort of sugary dipping sauce for cinnamon bread. Both instances happened before 2007, and I have been a vegetarian for 4 years, have severe allergic reactions to most pizzas, and have always been a major health-nut. Not my proudest (or healthiest) moment.
