Hi, Biggestgerbil here.
I am T2 and don't know how long I have had it for. I get the feeling that it has been with me for more than 25 years but was only diagnosed about 5 years ago.
Why biggestgerbil? My wife ( ladyfriend at the time) used to breed gerbils for a couple of local pet shops. If you know anything about gerbils you will know that it is hard to stop them breeding. Sort of mini-rabbits. She used to call me her big gerbil (nothing to do with breeding prowess) I am 6' 2" tall mand tip the scales at 310lbs so I became the biggest gerbil.
When I was first diagnosed I panicked and gave up alcohol, sugar and related products. Now, I can't stand to have sugar in coffee etc. But I still eat one Bounty per week. Ah! simple pleasures...
Regards all
