    Room 101

    Room 101

    Lol! I hate having my hair cut so much that I don't! When it gets to the point that it's too long to easily bundle up into a clip, I grab it into a bunch and chop a couple of inches off. ( yes, contrary to popular belief, I am a girl. :) ) Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    What Pets Do You Have?

    I'm between dogs at the moment. - The hours I work, it just isn't possible. :( I do get to baby sit my brothers border terrier when he and his family are away, but I miss having a dog full time. :( Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Movies,

    Hiya, - never too late, - we do it every September. Thanks for the reply! I know the Vikings horn part, it's really distinctive, but the average age of the audience is about nine, so I'm not sure they'll have seen it. There's a bit of a competition amongst the brass teachers as to who can get...

    protein drinks for meal supplimenting

    Hiya, I tried the whey protein one I found in Tesco, as it was low carb. Didn't find it good at all I'm afraid. It sent me shooting up into the high teens. Made me feel really ill. I gave it a good shot, different times of day, different days with different amounts of inbuilt stress, but no. Not...

    Black Friday!

    Solved the Christmas Jumper dilemma. - a black T shirt, on which I have written "Dear Santa, I can explain everything....." With a stylised angel with a wonky halo on the back. :)

    The usual suspects (lightweights) are wimping out.

    Big mistake!

    Big mistake! I'm sorry, I don't see why this mistake is beachbags fault, even partly. Yes, she's been off the radar for a while, but I'm not surprised. - wouldn't it knock you off target if, for some reason, you couldn't get your BG. To behave, no matter how hard you tried. She's right. This is...

    Black Friday!

    Don't worry, no one pushes me around. :) - turns out the bowling that's been added to the night out was a gift to the music service from a parent of one of the kids we teach. How kind is that??! (There are 30 of us and we teach over four and a half thousand pupils a week. :) ) Sent from the...

    Black Friday!

    So, Black (party) Friday approaches. Still haven't decided whether to be designated driver or get Dad to play taxi and have a few drinks. The guys are nagging at me to have a drink but, when you consider that the one nagging the hardest is the one who went head first through a car windscreen a...

    Really stupid question

    - I'm not totally positive, but I think Statins are to help correct a cholesterol issue, not reduce blood sugar. - I might well be wrong, but if I am, I'm sure someone will correct me very soon! :) Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Really stupid question

    Those tablets sound great! - can I have some please?? I'm no expert, but I take Metformin. The tablets alone don't seem to make that much difference to my actual blood sugar readings, although they do have other benefits (and some less desirable side effects). I'm pretty sure you're s'posed...

    Black Friday!

    Have bought battery operated LED fairy lights. They don't get hot and there are no bulbs to break. - The boss has decided that Christmas jumpers are in order. - I don't do Christmas jumpers. I don't mind SOME of the patterns, but why do they have to be such an unflattering shape? - Me and my...

    Type 1 & Type 2 and this Forum

    I think that quite a lot of T2s would be reluctant to shout about it. Given the attitude of the media in general, and a quite sniffy, dismissive attitude that occasionally floats in from people who really should know better. It is true that GPs don't have to give test supplies to T2s unless...

    Type 1 & Type 2 and this Forum

    Sounds an awful lot like the makings of a two tier system to me. If the forum is changed so that our "status" has to be displayed alongside our names, I for one will be leaving the forum. - Why would anyone want to offer their opinion if they are going to be dismissed because of their...
