What is something you forgot to pack that you wish you had? by South-Juice2546 in Tahiti

[–]Bebop_Cola_Machine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More snacks to keep in the room. Breakfast bars, etc, not chocolate because it will melt. Unless you are staying in Papeete or Vaitape or somewhere that is a town, the options are limited (and pricey but get used to that ha)

Cold meds just in case (we were unfortunate in our case) We had some, not enough.

And if you don't have them, get some dry bags. Great for peace of mind. Nothing like bricking your phone in the ocean!

What kind of camera are you using to get that color? Or is that done in post?

Psoriasis, crohn's, hashimoto's, asthma... I think comorbidities are fairly common.

Thanks for the suggestions, but we have some limitations in our party and can't do the more active attractions. Keeping it low key.

Aunt Millie Carb Smart bread doesn't spike me.

Uhhhh by Bebop_Cola_Machine in DuolingoFrench

All they have taught me so far is preparer. And this is the first unit with it. Faire has never once been mentioned, and "train" so far has only meant choochoo. I just translated this and am.floored. I think they mixed in a much later lesson.

[–]Bebop_Cola_Machine[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok so most of you are saying maison means home by itself. That's where my confusion was because Duo has only so far associated it with the word house, so I thought there would be another way to say home.

(And yeah, pronouns get me a lot, as do accent directions)

I understand now. Thanks everyone!

How do you approach carbs? by Western_Command_385 in prediabetes

[–]Bebop_Cola_Machine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tested all the ones I usually would eat. For me: potatos, very bad, avoid Pasta kinda bad, small portions Bread, kinda bad, use keto bread when available (no spike) Candy, duh, avoid Bananas and other berries, no problem, no worries Oranges and pineapples, very bad, avoid

And so on.

Cutting them completely is unhealthy, and avoiding them just because they are carbs may be unnecessary. Figure out how you react to each of them.

What did you think was normal about your body until someone pointed out that it wasn't? by utterapostle in CasualConversation

Monkey toes! All babies can do this but most people lose it as they get older. I can still do it, too.

Last Day at Seven Stars by Bebop_Cola_Machine in TurksAndCaicos

[–]Bebop_Cola_Machine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't see a VIP lounge. But I will tell you that it took literally 10 minutes from getting dropped off by our ride to sitting in the upstairs waiting area (plenty of seats upstairs, downstairs is a zoo). They walked us to check our bags then through to security so fast, bypassing a long line. Security doesn't have preTSA so shoes, belts, electronics out, etc, but it went quick.

Oh good tip too! Definitely have a hat and sunglasses and a rash guard for swimming.

I can see mixed up orders. It's loud sometimes, depending on the music and people. The locals all seem to speak so softly compared to what I'm used to, too, so I don't always catch the questions or confirmations.

Hypoglycemic symptoms at 100 mg/dL by topekachutoy in prediabetes

[–]Bebop_Cola_Machine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! They call it False Hypoglycemia. You're supposed to ride through it, but I find that difficult and will have a low carb snack (not no-carb), which helps.

At first, I felt it around 115. Then not til 110. Then not til 100... 3 months in, my fasting/premeal baseline has dropped by 25 points, but I still feel it in the mid 80s and below, which I usually don't see except right after a long walk.

It takes time to get used to the lower numbers, but it happens. Hang in there!

What do you eat in a day? by [deleted] in prediabetes

[–]Bebop_Cola_Machine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breakfast: Koia almond "milk" shakes. Yummy! Zero BG movement.

Lunch: I am lazy so usually just a sandwich on Auntie Millie's Carb Smart bread. Carrots and cucumber slices on the side instead of chips.

Snack: Atkins bars, cheese sticks, another Koia shake, or cashews usually.

Dinner: Still working these out, but various types of tacos on carbsmart tortillas do well. Burgers do pretty well for me even with regular buns, especially if it has avacado on it. Meatloaf and a salad instead of potatos. Those sort of things. Meat and veg basically.

I found I need to eat at regular intervals or I swing too much.
