| It's not just part of the sickness. Since the adoption of the pyramid, diabetics are being told by dieticians that a carb is a carb is a carb. Check out the diabetes diet wars in the other threads. Always eat your veggies first! |

| It's a hard thing to accept that what you eat could harm you so much or kill you. I know it took me a long time to accept that I'm the one that's gotta get control over this. I thought I didn't care but evertime time I got a 200-300 or higher reading I was actually scared to death. You either accept it or you don't , but I want to see my kids grow up and have kids much more than I want a pizza. |

| I have been a Type 2 diabetic for about a year no. When my Dr. told me he said get back on that low carb diet and stay there. I've brought my blood sugars down to normal. Fbs 80-95 in am with no medication. |

| Unfortunately, I think some patients may view their insulin injection much like a shot of pencillin. Eat, take the insulin because it reverses any negative effects of the food. I happen to personally know someone with this mindset, sad but true. I have not been able to convince him otherwise. Susan LCE Member since 01/02 341/285.5/185 |

| It's sad when people are in denial. As for me, I got tired of my fingers going numb because I was trying to eat like everyone else. I got rid of the wheat, went low carb, medical problems leave. Good to feel my fingers again. |
