Alan S replied to LavanderBlue's discussion 'Discouraged, for real. Can't do this anymore..'
"Glad to meet you again. Around where I live there are no diamonds or sheep, but lots of bananas and sugar cane; not the best location for a type 2 in that respect. On the other hand, there are also lots of macadamias, avocados and cattle. And lots…"

Alan S replied to TheOneType's discussion 'finger pricking?'
"Compared to the amount of testing you do, I'm small fry. I am type 2. I used to check 20 times daily when I first started nearly ten years ago, but that dropped quickly to 8-10 and nowadays I vary from none to half a dozen depending on whether…"

"G'day furball; nice to meet you again in a different place. Correct me if I'm wrong and you're not the furball I knew :) Unfortunately LavanderBlue has not posted again since Dec 28. We're all a bit concerned. Cheers, Alan, T2,…"

"If it makes you feel any better, the lack of clear distinction pisses off the T2s too. But not quite as much as the ignorant minority of T1s who moan about being confused with T2s because they didn't cause their own diabetes. I didn't…"

Alan S replied to Kitabparast's discussion 'Nutrition values for Indian/Pakistani foods'
"I don't know of any specific books on that cuisine, The best advice I can offer is to test at your peak after each meal; pretty soon you will start to learn which foods to avoid and which are OK. When I was in Rajasthan I found that I could eat…"

We were in Sydney (Roseville & East Lindfield). We loved it and were very sorry to leave. We were there for almost 8 years, my boys went to the local schools, and they both played rugby with our local club. We cheered for the Wallabies in the few World Cup matches we got to watch here in the US.

G'Day Alan. I'm glad you like my Avatar. We're Americans by birth and Australians by choice. My son was dx'd while we were living there.

I do to and ppl don't like what I say. I saw on one post where I said "once A diabetic always a diabetic" and u backed me up on that one. It's my feeling that that's the way it is.
