I especially appreciate your consideration for how these kinds of statements affect the entire diabetes community. Sometimes I see T1s get overly defensive, in the "It does not apply to T1, only T2" way, but they unfortunately miss the point of how it's inaccurate and hurtful and misleading for anyone with diabetes, no matter what age or type.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-6199282727257661142015-01-09T12:11:32.907-08:002015-01-09T12:11:32.907-08:00Jamie Oliver isn't making fun of diabetics.

If not for sugar my count would be at 40, but if not for sugar, it wouldn't be at 300 either, sometimes in the span of 15 minutes. The whole, "you don't look fat", thing is very annoying. miami after 40https://www.blogger.com/profile/04484038856640475773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-65547599791461881092015-01-08T11:47:39.981-08:002015-01-08T11:47:39.981-08:00I suggest anybody and everybody should tweet this ...I suggest anybody and everybody should tweet this like to @jamieoliver if you want his attention 50+ Ironman Goal!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02375287429684315570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-41719126839059174232015-01-08T11:31:50.901-08:002015-01-08T11:31:50.901-08:00I wish all medical professionals and well, humans ...I wish all medical professionals and well, humans could be as enlightened as he is.

However, I agree with you on your stance. I really appreciate you sharing the ted talk also, I love that the doctor had such a personal experience that altered his view of the "why" of a medical condition and has now become open to the fact that not every answer is obvious and may not perfectly align with current medical thinking. Hope things are going well for you and yours ;) Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03210820513382353417noreply@blogger.com
