[QUOTE="miss e j, post: 16973, member: 6166"] Hi Justine, Two comments about the survey: 1. When asking what medication people take, you assume insulin is taken by injection - some of us (and there will be more in the future) use a pump - an important distinction. 2. Re a "diabetic diets" or "healthy eating plan" this really only applies to Type 2s. Many type 1s have had/are having carb counting and dose adjustment education (and if not the should be!) which allows type 1s to eat a normal diet - ie what they like, when they like. Obviously it is best to eat healthily, but having done the dose adjustment course, I can skip meals, or eat cake if I feel like it. I think you need to be aware of this for your masters - google DAFNE for more info. So the questions about following a diet plan I didn't feel were relevant at all for me - I ticked yes, because I plan and eat what I like - as long as it's vegan! Cheers, emily [/QUOTE]
