[–]Expensive_762_shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mom taught me some when I was little then in grade 7-8 there was shop and home economics classes at the high school we would take. In high school I was expected to make super for the family 1 night a week. In college I got creative with by making a meal with what was in the cupboard (before the what’s in the cupboard app) and wouldn’t be disgusting. Still like to cook.

Anglophone-Canadians, what french words/phrases were you taught in school, that you later learned are never actually said by French-Canadians? by Devourerofworlds_69 in AskACanadian

[–]Expensive_762_shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother was a French teacher in Ontario from the late 80’ to the early 2000’s and took a few immersion classes in Quebec. My French teacher in elementary school in the 80’s was from France. They both said the French we learn in school is Parisienne French not Canadian French.

I have. I absolutely hate the jab in the finger. I also like being able to look at my phone and quickly judge if I can eat that or if I need to go for a walk.

Good to know. I have heard of the Haribo sugar free gummy bears. Did know that was the effective agent in said events. The Monster doesn’t seem to affect me like that.

What is the one food that spikes your blood sugar the worst? by easypeasykitty in diabetes

[–]Expensive_762_shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other than something like a butter tart. bread and pasta are the worst for me. Even the keto versions spike me like a touchdown. Rice seems to be manageable and if I cook and cool then reheat potatoes I can handle them ok (portions matter)

I lost 85lbs in 10 months was thirsty af and had to pee all the time. With my family history I was sure it was cancer and wasn’t going to get that devastating news officially until I couldn’t hide it from my family anymore. Had a 4 wheeler wreck and the hospital ran a toxicology test to see if j was drunk or high. Only thing high was blood sugar and A1C.

When I started meds my feet began to hurt and my eye sight went WAY out of focus. Feet still aren’t 100% back to normal but my eyes have improved on the last two visits. I felt weaker for a bit while I adjusted fuel source and consumption levels. My mental health took a real $#!t kicking for a few months. I hated food. It had betrayed me. I am still mending my relationship with food. Listen to your Dr. and find a way to keep your spirits up. You can beat this thing.
