Hi Everyone! To introduce myself...

- What is your name? Rhiannon
- How old are you? 31
- Are you male or female? Female
- Which country are you from? UK (but I'm not very patriotic.... Would love to live somewhere else!)
- Which city/area do you live in? London
- Are you religious? No, not at all. But each to their own. We'll all find out in the end!
- Pick three words to describe your personality. Annoyingly-happy / positive, free-spirited, stubborn / driven
- Do you have any pets? Yes - lovely 6 month old kitten called Ziggy.
- Microsoft or Apple? Microsoft
- Which sport(s) (if any) do you like/play? Love hiking, hula-hooping and... Swimming but I never do it as a sport. Just for fun.
- Do you get angry easily? No, not generally. I'm very calm!
- Do you have any tattoos or piercings? If so, where? Yes, a tattoo on my shoulder and the standard ear piercings.
- List your five favourite musicians/bands. Honestly, I hate this question because I'm not super passionate about specific artists / music genres - I like emotive music but equally will enjoy singing to absolutely anything. But as an idea my favourite song is Hurt by Johnny Cash. I wish I could have seen him when he was alive.
- What would you say your favourite music genre is? See above! I love a really wide range...in terms of who I have seen - mainly rock /metal because that's mutual ground with my husband. Last band we saw was....Cult of Luna
- What is your favourite flag? Is that a thing??
- Ever gone camping? Yes - favourite camping place Algonquin Park in Canada
- Ever been in love? I hope so... Married for 2 years, together for 8 :)
- Ever used fake tan? No but I am as pale as anything.
- Which countries have you visited? 44 countries and counting. Huge travel fan. Hit me up for itineraries and tips!
- Favourite city? Currently trying to relocate to Halifax in Nova Scotia because it is perfect: on the coast, surrounded by outdoor spaces, near to quirky towns and villages, big enough to have decent jobs but small enough to walk around.
- List your five favourite TV programmes. The Office US, Parks and Recreation, real-life crime / injustice shows like Making A Murderer
- List your five favourite films. Again, love movies but can't really choose favourites!
- Are you wealthy? Comfortable / worry free but very frugal naturally so that's probably why. Grew up poor so it taught me not everything is about material possessions!
- Do you work? If so, as what? Yes, I'm a construction project manager
- List the subjects you study/have studied. Degree in Structural Engineering and Architecture and before that I studied maths
- What do you like most about yourself? I'm very empathetic and see things from multiple points of view
- What do you like least about yourself? I'm pretty critical and stubborn.

Hi @Guinea Pig Mum ,

Welcome to the forum.

If by hypoglycemia you mean low blood sugars? Please by all means start your own topic/thread.?

I know of at least two on this forum who know how to combat it.

Don't be shy. Fell free.!

Hi
Just told week ago that I have diabetes type 2...my lifestyle and diet I was living not surprised but still a hard thing to hear.
Instant shock into stopping all sugars. All I seem to be doing is researching and trying to learn how to read food labels.
2 big questions I have at the moment is
For a diabetic the carbohydrates is the information that you need of a label?
Is there a max on carbohydrates a day or a recommended amount?
My name is Frank and I have no doubt I am going to have a million questions for ye all. For now I am 43 male from Ireland lover of live sport music and fishing. Favourite bands iron maiden and machine head so I guess you can call me a rocker at heart. I suffered from depression and eating unhealthy was a crutch to deal with it.
I suppose the one question other people I guess ask when first diagnosed is what nice things you can eat....I will settle for is there a ice lollies out there that could enjoy on a hot day.
Hey fellow rocker here ☺️☺️
