Guest guest Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 I had an uncle like that. He had the insulin down to a science and knew how much to take per how many sugars he had. he ate everything junky. He died from something totally different at 59 years old, so I can't say the diet killed him. I wonder how long he would have lived on that diet. OB BY THE WAY!!!!! Check this out!! my mom, the one who calls all vegetarians " whackos " well, she started watching this show " Christina Cooks " and she called me up telling me how wonderful all these recipes look and that I should make her some! and that you don't need meat for these yummy looking recipes, and she wants me to fix some of this stuff up and we can do lunch! LOL! I watched Christina cooks and you can get her recipes at christinacooks.com. Besides beinga vegetarian from the looks of the show I think she is also a kitchen witch! yay! LOL.

We spoke with them about the type of meals we prepare and they said they would be wonderful for him to eat. Of course, I am not a doctor and would encourage you to go over your diet with your diabetic doctor and/or physician so that you know exactly what is right for you. Other than what we prepare for him, my future father-in-law pretty much eats like a teenager: fast food all the time, ice cream on a regular basis, etc. I think, for him, the only thing that keeps him 'going' is his two shots of insulin a day. His docs knew/know he will not control his diet in any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
