Hey there, esteemed TuDiabetes community members. I'm looking to connect with a few PWD's who are living with type 2 diabetes for a dLife project I'm working on. If you have type 2 diabetes and you would be interested in participating in a writing project for dLife.com, please drop me a line at morrone at dlife dot com.

Thanks for your time, and I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

This blog isnt about anything really! I am just on the computer and want to feel like I am doing something useful. In actuality it is great when I keep up on my typing because when I go back to my data entry job at the IRS I will not have lost any of my speed.

Oh I did do something productive today. I went to my Diabetes basics class and learned how I am supposed to eat. The dietician gave us some great meal plans to go by. I tend to do so much better on a diet if I am give some…

Despite being very anxious that it was up, my 10/31/2007 HbA1C result was 5.4%.

Needless to say, I am thrilled. Will see the doc after T-day.

I have always known that my food weakness is anything sweet. I am coming to realize that this is going to be my hardest struggle in my journey to a healthier me. I did soooooo good throughout the day yesterday and today. Well last night I was at a quilting all nighter and there was a box of cream puffs that would not leave me alone. They were downright malicious in the way that I was unable to focus on anything else for longer than a few minutes. I would focus on what I was making and then…

I know that I may need to add another type of insulin to gain control of my after meal #'s. I have been researching Humalog and think that this may be the one to talk to my doctor about. Right now I'm on Lantus and Glucotrol XL. Can Lantus be used with Humalog?

I am going to say it again... I love reading everyone's blog... I am learning from it, discovering new things is one reason why I make time reading blogs. And funny how I envy everyone because you could express what you feel/experience/think so clearly. On my part, Most often than not, I am having a hard time understanding some blogs when someone uses idiomatic expression (LOL), I can't grasp the meaning!~ well, it's understandable since english is not my mother-tongue, and we don't use it…

I was a 'blue water' sailor doing time on USS Bennington CVS20 1965, USS Truxton DLGN35 1969 - 70 and USS Enterprise CVAN65 1972 - 73. We were in the Gulf when the war shut down and did not get back until May or Jun of that year. Most of my time I did as a reactor operator on the Truxton and Enterprise. I got out in Oct of 1975, probably the biggest life mistake I made. Things would be alot easier now if I had stayed and retired.

I look back on my Navy time as a really good time. My…

I used to dread going to the eye doctor. I'd put it off until my prescription became really ineffective. Until reading signs became a problem and movies were a blur. A visit to the eye doctor meant those hateful lines of letters and an undeniable feeling of failure. The doctor, so close to your face you can smell him, asking you "Number one,…
