@Pipp
I found this in one of Pipps posts and thought that this was great......

I think it was Kate Moss who once said "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels". I would say "nothing tastes as good as diabetes reversal feels".

I'll let you know when I get there..........
 
My dear departed mum, who had a tough life, had a mantra when faced with a difficult problem.

"We will find a way, or we will make a way".

A legacy that has made me doggedly determined to never give up on something I believe in. (Or alternatively, a right pain in the rear)!
 
I like this!

"I'm not a complete idiot, there're still some parts missing!" Unknown

Errrrrrrrrrr.......
 
The problem with living up to people's expectations, is that you have failed before you start!
 
Cheers, at risk of annoying some people I have got there.
Not smug though, just being vigilant so diabetes doesn't sneak back uninvited.

Had a very sharp reminder that I have diabetes today. Work colleague came over. Thought would leave earlier so held off eating till left. Bs then in low 4sbat 9:20. Ate but felt dizzy. Took hour to get back to mid 4s. Then dropped so ate to choccie fondant choccies for hit of sugar. Straight up to 5.5. Banging headache and just want to sleep. Now 9 1 an hour after eating 2 chocs. Going to drink water. Feel like ****!
 
Oh, dear.
I remember how scary that can be.
I think I am fortunate that I have the time, after years of putting others first, to concentrate on my own care now.
Hope you feel better soon.
 
"It's impossible" said pride
"It's risky" said experience
"It's pointless" said reason
"Give it a try" whispered the heart.

my work mantra after being shafted by someone who lied.
 
From my dear departed mum
In very cold wet horrible weather

It isn't fit for man nor beast,
Only women and kids

Another one, during school holiday
It isn't rain, it's liquid sunshine

Or
Mens' feet are ugly, so ugly it makes their arses look nice

Some might say I have a slightly odd attitude to life but here are some of my favourites.

High fliers might soar like eagles, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

My karma ran over your dogma

As con is to pro, is Congress to progress (I may be from the UK but it still hits a note)
 
No one can go back and make a brand new start.

Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending
