@Scott-C i second (or is that third ... or fourth) your sentiment.
I have been contemplating suggesting an alternative to daisy1’s introduction message to highlight the difference between the types. For now, I sometimes just jump in, welcome the victim ... I mean new member... and remind them about only 10% of people with diabetes have type 1 so expect only 10% of a all encompassing diabetes forum to be relevant to type 1.
Perhaps I should also mention that 10% of the discussions on the forum are not relevant to people with type 2 but perhaps that sounds too passive aggressive... or maybe just aggressive.
Can I supplement your rant with my own micro rant about the comments regarding exercise not being any use for weight loss? Anyone would think exercise is a complete and utter waste of time (and energy) and the only possible reason for doing it is the misconception that it causes you to lose weight.
I would never suggest anyone needs to do as much exercise as I do but, unless you have a medical condiction which completely prohibits you from moving your backside from the sofa in front of the tv (whilst reading the Daily Express), there are benefits of exercise as this website explains here.
One of the benefits of exercise for me is taking out my frustrations. I think I better get back on the treadmill.
Maybe the fruity flapjack cookies have cured me! Now that would rile the low carbers, must do a thread about it...
Many apologies if I’ve banged on about it here and annoyed people. I
You realise that, as a diet controlled, low carbish T2 I shouldn’t be anywhere near them let alone eating them, but have you found the Tesco Granola Slices yet? Not sure what effect they will have on your BS though!!!Well, I'm a happy bunny today. For the last seven days, my T1 buddy has actually been playing by some sort of rules for a change.
Corrections aren't randomly dropping me more than intended, meals aren't shooting me sky high.
Apart from a couple of modest dips to just below 4, a couple of 8s and 9, and one brief visit to 11, I've been 96% in a 4 to 8 range for seven days now. Hurrah, and lashings of ginger beer!
I have absolutely no idea why it's decided to take a vacation to Stable Land but here's hoping it will carry on.
Apart from tweaking my basal a bit, I've not made any major changes, although I've recently discovered Tesco Finest Fruity Flapjack Cookies, so, who knows, maybe the oats in those have some sort of low gi buffering effect.]

DIY ing all done.
Granddaughter in tears. Last night her mum got an electric organ out for her to play with/ on. Well by 10.30 this morning we had a full rendition of ....heads, shoulders, knees and toes..... My daughter decided to video the achievement and post it on to Nanna for when she got up from bed. The playing of a “ b “ note instead of a “ d” at the end broke her heart and caused floods of tears. Spent the next 10 minutes explaining about Rome then reverted to more simple examples of things taking time.
Fortunately the grandson decided to have a go on the organ. On listening to his rendition of heaven knows what we all decided that the granddaughter had nothing to worry about.
@Scott-C . I think that rates as a perfect week. Long may it continue.
@helensaramay . Can almost smell your bread cooking. Cardio day for me today. Enjoy your workout
What are you making? Assuming it’s not to fix the piano.Organ playing all done for the day. Impromptu deep theological discussions with 5 and 9 year old church regulars after church. As well as, um, dismantling the piano so we could inspect the inner workings thereof. (It's OK, I can put it all back together again, though there was some consternation from a couple of newer to our church people who don't know me very well, yet.)
Blowing a massive hoolie here too, and has been all day. I was sure I was going to get blown into the reservoir I was walking past earlier as I was walking off my usual Sunday morning higher than desirable levels.
However, I've just remembered I've got to go back and check the children's work cupboard as I blithely agreed we had plenty of the red insulating tape, cocktail sticks and tin foil for next week. Well, I'm pretty sure we do... I know I looked in the bag when I was last in that cupboard and remember thinking we'd be fine. Still, I've got plenty of time to sort it if I'm wrong. (We had a red insulating tape crisis some years ago and I bought enough to last us until I retire as organist, in about 20 years time or so, as it seemed there was none in the whole of this city that year.)

No apologies needed, Mel!
You have always been totally moderate and balanced in your approach, and understand it is one option amongst many, all of which are viable.
It's the numpties who insist on their way being the only way to the exclusion of all others who bug me, and you are patently not in that category.
First post in this thread, Queensland bananas are great that why we are called banana benders amongst other names.And Queenslanders (like @Tipetoo ) would be outraged that bananas were maligned"!!
You need to join the “Libre Line Art” group on Facebook with thatWell had another interesting day with the graph below, ignore the numbers as it seems that Etch Sketch is reading anything between 2 - 3 points out.
