Its true people take for granted what they have, until they don't have it any longer. I used to eat what I want and 8 years ago when I was 19 I was told I would have to change my eating habits. As many people who know me are aware that I haven't made hardly any changes at all since being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes 8 years ago. (Type 1 is sometimes referred to as Juvenile Diabetes. Those who have it MUST take insulin. There are no pills for Type 1. You also cannot lose weight and be cured as people can with Type 2.
Part of my reason for writing this blog is so I can address misconceptions about Type 1 diabetes, celiac sprue and JRA (known as Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. I would like to hear your questions, comments and perspectives, but Please keep them positive. Thanks!
