When eating only one egg causes so much trouble, be wise and eat two or three! :-D

If this could be an alternative: there are needles, where the needle is hidden from your view.

A little different view of mine: If you eat pizza all the day with a big coke and your by is worst, yes there is something wro... You could improve your diabetes handling. And LCHF / complete lifestyle change can be an option. But there are other ways, too. I am on insulin since my first day...

I have an insulinx. What I like: needs not much blood. Bolus calculator. Light. What I would improve: more finely graduated steps than just 0.5 for IE/BE, more different time zones for this And - there is no need to test the blood when eating and using extra insulin one hour after last usage -...

One test, one lancet, too.

Hi @amgrundy: since October no package for me :-/

I use it for lancets, needles and cellulose swab.

To have an excuse to eat it once in a month [emoji12] I use this: and duct tape on the cap when full.

I am using a key chain like this: http://www.diabetes-kids.de/artikel/diabetes-kids-notfallanhanger-2040 Hope they will find it in my trouser pockets.

At least there is a rotation pattern from DB http://www.bd.com/de/diabetes/page.aspx?cat=19104&id=31959

My question was about the statement "insulin is toxic to the cells". I found interesting theses, but no medical explanation. Toxic means "doing something biological harm to it". What is the damage which insulin makes to the cells? Without this, it is a thesis. Probably worth to make research on...

Dr. Fun has interesting statistics and hypothesis. But - I don't see the whole hour - there where no medical proof or explanation in it. IMHO.

Here the same, 3 month. But they said it would be not so quickly.

There are several possible explanations. Shame. Or the feeling using a test stripe is more about having a test you can pass or fail instead of monitoring/metering.

First time ever I read this: toxic? Do you have any source of this for me?

Is it hungry all the time like needing more energy or the watching TV and need something to snack hunger? For the last one I tried tomatoes (with cottage cheese) and cucumber.

Would be useful to know what your medication is.

I did not say everyone here says always that LCHF is the only way. But sadly I was able to find many quotes where it was and where a non LCHF way was blamed. See the quotes above. http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/index.php?posts/1027346 And these are still there, even if I misunderstood...

Apparantly I only dreamed to read this: "ultimately you have to step back as a worried bystander in the same way if he was an alcoholic or drug user" (BTW, I am sure you wanted to write " who did not connect non LCHF with drug or alcohol addiction at all. ") and you obviously have an issue...

I do not indent to blame indiscriminately all addicts, (perhaps a problem not to be a native speaker) But eating not LCHF is not like being addiced to anything neither carbs. And more important, to me many phrases here sounds like blaming: He is choosing his likes over his health it depends...
