I think it is unfare to say there are two kinds of people with diabetes who do this.....i had a roast last night for the first time in months....also had a maki dees today...just one burger...........but i eat very well all and most of the time and as you said you have to have treats every now and again....but all in all i think we are all in the same boat, but maybe some don't or have not come to terms with there diabetes....it's a fine line which a lot of peeps find hard to either adjust to or just cannot change lifestyle 🙂

There are an awful lot of people who get very poor information (or no information) as well Whilst some people clearly don't care, I think there are many who simply don't know because things have never been explained properly to them.

I agree alan....but i truly think even those how you put it do not care.....some of those are and in self denial? we all react different to what we are told or what we have lets face it it's a life changeing condition....and 100% agree with not been explained properly....if it was not for you and all the other members on here i would be a mess and have no way of controlling the big D....thankfully you are all here for support and genuine careness......something money can't buy 🙂

I had a doughnut for lunch the other day at W. It had a caramel filling.

BG was 4.7 before and went out for two hours and it was 4.7 again.😛

Sounds good tez...I think everyones replies are of good information...I do treat myself but thats got to do with beer going to the amex on a matchday and having a good day out...I have never met a real live diabetic so maybe in not a weird kind of way we could have a meet on a home game soon....

Hopefully you might be able to get to the London meet in November, then you should be able to meet a few more live diabetics 😉

Chase people with big needles, scandalize the pub by injecting in public, eat nothing but salad and water... 😱

OK, maybe I'm fibbing a little

You've forgotten the Birmingham meet in September. 😛 If Northerner can get to that from Southampton, and Hazel from Glasgow, anyone can. 😉

Both will be at a Wetherspoons, so I'm looking forward to having some J?gerbombs.

Minimum 5 hour round trip with a 3 year old - thanks, but no thanks!

But yes, Birmingham is an option too
