[QUOTE="Robyn@29, post: 1307747, member: 342525"] I think this is a really good question. At the moment i barely see it as a part time job... I was only diagnosed a month ago type 1, and actually apart from the 5/10 mins before a big meal that I've never had before where I have to work out my carbs, I hardly think about it. 90% of the time I'm within my BG target, and when I'm not I know the reason (running around at work or not resisting the biscuit barrel) has anyone else's attitude changed since diagnosis? I read all your stories about struggling with your BG levels and see all the meme's on Facebook about what it's like to live with diabetes, but I don't feel like that at all. I'm aware of the "hunny moon period" and am getting a bit scared about when this ends... Any advice from anyone's who's felt like this, will it change eventually? I will always remember what my diabetic nurse said to me tho, while I was in hospital attached to 3 drips, trying to bring my BG down from 40... "you control it, don't let it control you..." seemed like wise words at the time... T.I.A Robyn [/QUOTE]
