Hmmmmm. definitions! When I read 'We are all different' on a thread, I usually translate it to mean....'I won't do that because....' If I write 'we are all different' on a thread I mean..... 'I know some of you won't want to do this so I'm saving you the bother of telling me so' I suppose that means I'm indifferent, right?

‘We are all different’ tends to be invoked rather often in forum threads, but people often use it to mean very different things. I have noticed the following different senses:
1. We have different types of diabetes, or were diagnosed at different times, or are at different stages of the condition’s development.
2. Our individual systems respond in slightly different ways to different foods (i.e. some foods spike our BGs whereas others seem to take them without ill effects)
3. We have different lifestyles/jobs, which means that certain types of diet or medication are more feasible for some of us than for others.
4. We have different combinations of medical conditions which means that certain forms of diet/exercise/medication may not be as appropriate/possible for some of us as they are for others.
5. We reserve the right to make our own individual response to how we balance out the risks of diabetic complications and possible side-effects of medication, with how we like to eat and live, and how far we are prepared to change and disrupt our diet.
