[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 1001033, member: 88961"] I've done lots of flying since diagnosis. I just get on with it. I make the best meal choice I can, and figure the portion sizes are pretty modest, so little will happen. I don't eat the sweet options or the pretzels with drinks, and to date, have passed on the ice creams available a while before arrival at the other end. It's one day, once in a while, and I tend to think the less stressed I am over things, the better I will cope with whatever is thrown my way. If I send myself on a sugar or generalised carb binge I am less likely to take any little glitches in my stride, so I just don't go there. To be honest, I usually have quite a bit to get done whether arriving "there" or here, so don't want to create a slef induced sluggish state I can easily avoid. The only time I got a bit stressed was when I had over-stayed my entry stamp by a few days, but as I was leaving the territory I had over-stayed, they didn't even mention it. I've been back since, without repercussions. I could apply for citizenship the other end, but it seems like more hassle it's worth. It's not a passport I would ever use for travel anyway. [/QUOTE]
