CB - did you read the Best Diabetic Diet. Hasn't the way of the diabetic diet changed. Thirty four years ago, you wouldn't dare consider even one cookie to hear your doctor talk. So, I guess we have come a long way. But, I'm still looking for them to come up with a cure!! Maybe in our lifetime! One can hope!!

Yes, bologna reminds me of summer camp, cookouts, goodtimes before we got fat and sick...one of those things we all had, other than cb, before the world went to Hell

Actually bologna is DELICIOUS with lots of mayo and white bread. So is a hotdog cooked on a fire. Kills a lot of exchanges when a person is on the exchange system and is probably a very poor use of calories but you are right. It is delicious

Bologna is best with lots of mayo and white bread. My 40 in Big Gut need it.

Faith, I couldn't get to the diabetes portion of that site! I checked the "diet-killers" portion and found some good tips. Restricting even lean chicken to a 3 oz portion does make sense for someone of normal activity levels. For others, it may be insufficient. Generally, though, it is gratifying to see bologna warned against. Thank you!

CB, and others that may be intersted, I found an interesting site. Go to www.dietpower.com/diabetesnutrition.htm. Would be interested to see what some of you think about the statements made there.

I posted my last response BEFORE reading the latest dribble. So, I guess now you will attack my last post. Ok, go for it! BTW, the reason I stay here is because I have hopes that it will get back to way it was and should be! Why are you here?

One Way to Replace Islet Cells... Researchers are looking a various sources of islets -- including engineered, proliferated, and regenerated islet cells -- and various methods of protecting these islets from the host's immune system -- including microencapsulation, macroencapsulation, and immune tolerance. To date, the use of microencapsulated porcine islets has shown the greatest initial efficacy while still presenting a number of remaining challenges. The following description illustrates this one particular approach to islet replacement without immunosuppression. If you want to read more about this go to www.islet.org/12.htm

Wasn't DHD opened so good people like Faith and CB can post without us idiots? So why is it that the ones responding to all us idiots are the ones that have their own site as it is? Could it be they ENJOY being here and being involved with all us idiots? Could it be that we are not the idiots at all, and the ones that open up a new chat and continue to come here and post their dribble over and over, then spewing out names of who they SUSPECT are responding to them are really enjoying the attention they get? If DHD is the site you all wanted, I can not see one valid reason to have to endure the postings of those that left. Not one post has had something new to add, CB repeats his views over and over and over and over and Faith just plain acts like she enjoys the attention.

Thanks CB, but it doesn't do any good to try and make the nuts on here see common sense. All he/she/it is trying to do is shut this site down by running everyone off. As you said, you and I are the only ones who still come here and post, with our names I might add. You know, it's funny, their (ap'ers) claim they don't post there email addressess because they fear they will recieve unwanted emails,(I guess they never have noticed they can delete!), is just an example of how idiotic they are. Ok, don't post your email, but why not post their names. If they had any kind of back bone they would. But no, they continue to come on here and attack and show just how ignorant they are. As you pointed out some of the recent posts show just how stupid they are. I have appreciated your willingness to keep posting in spite of them, and although I don't look into all the things you SUGGEST, I still have learned a lot. As for me, I will continue to come here, and help the few new posters that come on IF I CAN! So, Tom, Steve and whoever else comes here and acts like idiots, sorry, but I'm not going anywhere! Just to show you how serious I am, if any has something to ask, send me an email or post it here. I've been dealing with diabetes for 34 years now. I'm Type I and have been on an insulin pump for about 9 years. My husband now has Type II.

Hey!!I called my shrink today. perhaps you need one at this time! Maybe not! I cannot see how much smaller my mind can get. But if I work on it, I can succeed in getting it smaller. My "Big gut levels are doing just fine", Do you like your 40 foot waist? You are like Faith, that is certain! Margarine will make it bigger, plus help cause heart disease!

Was the poster who posted "FATTY" describing his or her 40 inch waistline. Lose more lean body mass and you can get fatter!

Well, AP. wHINE? Why not? It may not be you, but when I read a vicious attack of someone having fun with family, I wonder! "We don't really care..." Just who are we? If I listened and followed some of what is posted here, I would be hospitalized, too weak and sick to work! As it is, that almost happened. But again, "we don't care." We don't care is someome gets sick or dies or goes into DKE..... It a question is asked, APs attack or just post inane posts like "fatty" down below! My whine is more of a rant!

At this point, the cruel, uncaring AP's driven away all but Faith and me, then the occasional lurker with a real question. With just a few posts, 3 today were silly! Ya know, if my diabetes made me afraid to do anything, it would be better to die! One CAN live with diabetes. Some of the AP's here are downright depressing with their generalities that do not fit real life. I still remember the fat doctor who knew nothing of the benefits of glutamine! I should have called him the "know nothing" he is. Then there was the idiot who implied use of protein powders was faddish! I guess baseball. football. track, pwerlifting, speedskating are all off limits to diabetics since they cannot compete on the same level as their competitors who use supplements. THAT is real life. Why should a coach put someone on a team who is weaker and slower than the rest because he has to eat as a middle age sedentary person? Why should he or she? Idid legs and cardio at the gym today, had a shake, then dinner, and soon I will eat again! BG is running 100-140 today. 2 hours post lunch, it was 100. Seems to me that someone better do some reading! This goes far beyond lifting or not lifting! How about being afraid to really live. I control my diabetes; it does NOT control me!

Thanks Tasha, and others, for the suggestions. I plan on getting my doctor to right out a letter on letterhead stating my condition and the need for the lancets, etc.

Aug 7 11:58:00 - Maybe they're afraid someone might use the nail file to complete a plactic bombing device, ya know :-) My friend who recently flew from the states back to Europe had the same experience. That was a good advice to Faith: some five years ago when I went to the states as a foreign exchange student I had to carry the whole med supply with me including lancets for my glucometer and needles for my two NovoPens. So prior to the flight I had asked my diabetitian to write an acknowledgment about all the pointy stuff. Hope you have a pleasant journey!

Thanks 11:58:00, very good suggestions there. But I called my shrink (he is American,dont trust other brands), and as of Aug 6th, they no longer will prepare special straightjackets for me. Can you believe the person telling me this, suggested I take my on straightjacket and psyche meds on board! I mean really!!! I also plan on having my doctor give me a lobotomy. Thanks! Love Faith

Thanks 11:58:00, very good suggestions there. I called the airline, (American), and as of Aug 6th, they no longer prepare special meals for diabetics.

On Wed Aug 7 11:58:00 2002 () said:
If it were me planning to fly anywhere nowadays, I would try to get a letter from my doctor describing my medications and equipment. My sister-in-law had to surrender forever 2 metal manicure things, a metal nail file and a cuticle pusher, at the airport recently. Call me silly, but if someone tried to hijack my plane with a nail file, I would just take it away from them and tell them to sit down! Even if they jabbed me with it, well, c'mon, it's JUST A NAIL FILE for crying out loud! How bad could that hurt? It wouldn't be worth taking a chance on having your supplies confiscated, so perhaps you should be prepared for confrontation with a letter showing necessity or something.

I posted a serious question regarding diabeties, and you, who always spouts, WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH DIABETES, PLEASE EXPLAIN, and all you do is come back with a hateful response. Why oh why can't you ever change and let this site become what it was meant for. I never brought up my faith and haven't in a long, long time! Why do you keep bringing it up? BTW, where in my previous post did I say anything that could be constured as being a censor?

Oops, your so right, I forgot to put my name on! Shame, shame on me!! This December, my brother, his wife and John and I are going to Hawaii. My sister-in-law told me I should call the airlines and alert them to the fact John and I are diabetics and order special meals. Have any of you ever done that? Is it really necessary? I also heard on the radio the other day that the airlines are warning diabetics to have all there diabetic gear properly identified. Since I'm on the pump, I carry extra supplies and even syringes in case of an emergency. (I learned that after my pump didn't re-connect properly and I wound up in the hospital in DKA.) Have any of you flown recently and can share with us any problems you had because of the needles you may have been carrying?
