Re: Please post the good things about diabetes why do you li
For eg:I actually like the routine
I like the free medical card
I like the free nutritionist
I like that I can manipulate insulin and use it to my advantage
I like explaining to people that I have diabetes and how it all works
I used it as a chat up line on many occasions and it gets a rely good conversation going
I like how it makes you disciplined and keeps you head I focus with reality I also enjoyed it during party years whenever I felt sick or bad but as long as my sugars are right I'm ok just like in the gym if I feel low in energy ill test my sugar but if its not my sugar and its just me feeling tired then I know it's ok to push even harder its like a little man saying well your ok here man but stop ****** about and get back into it
Just wondering if anybody else was happy with diabetes because diabetics give diabetes such a hard time sometimes if you want to live strong and healthy you must except you diabetes and be friend him ,
I prob sound like a nut case to some people here but sure how and ever :-D[/quote]

"Hi I'm a diabetic...I'm good in bed"
"Hey!.. I'd love a babycham (I'm a type 2 Diabetic)"
"Hmmm,..Somebody smells nice..Oh! It's me. I'm a diabetic"
"When this baby hits 88 mph you're gonna see some serious s****! And I'm a diabetic"
"The force will be with you..always..as will diabetes."

I thought we did this thread already... :roll:
I don't like anything about my diabetes - it's a bloomin' nightmare from start to finish.

I have mulled and mulled but nope, can't think of a thing. Agree with previous comments- a similar post to this got a smidge out of control. Its obviously a contentious topic and touches a raw nerve.

I like the fact my diagnosis gave me the kick up the backside I needed to get a bit fitter. I go to the gym, twice a week (well OK not for last two week as I've had my gallbladder out and got another three or four weeks before I can get back in there) and in the last year lost about two stone. I've found that since I lost weight, my BS are normally under 6, and at my last visit the nurse said to try and keep under 6.5. I eat a much healthier low carb diet and I can honestly say that I feel 100% better than I did a couple of years ago. I know it's hard to be positive for some people and it took a while to get used to the diagnosis, but I hope it gets easier for those of you who find it hard going. :thumbup:
