When i was finally admittidly and told I was reallya full blown diabetic after years of being " borderline" I was happy. I mean i still dont get depressed over my diabetes.
I was one in a million as my own drs said. I embraced it accepted it and so the testing is just something else I have to do like brushing my teeth or putting on glasses.

I try to encourage those that I meet or come to me for consultation to take up the same thinking. Its just a part of you. You take care of your teeth, eyes and eat.. this is just a poke and you can still do what you want and eat in moderation everything in the world!
unlike what I am doing right now eating homemade spring rolls..........moderation exercise afterwards.. moderation.. exercise....
