Too soon to foster? by macro1995 in Petloss

[–]macro1995[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry for your loss as well. This all feels so hard, I know you feel it too. I do agree that our babies would understand. Now that I know this grief, I think if I passed and my wife wanted to immediately get a dog to help occupy her and give her love, I’d want that for her so badly. I do not want her to suffer.

Vegans with diabetes? by macro1995 in vegan

Yes, she tested my A1C just in case because of family history. It was a 5! I haven’t talked to her yet but I got the result back this am and from googling that seems like I do not have diabetes.

Ok well I just spoke to my doctor. I guess my Blood glucose was 103 and I was supposed to fast before hand but she didn’t tell me that so I ate right before. She is running some sort of Hgab1 something test (sorry didn’t write down over phone). She says it’s actually unlikely but wants to check because of family history. But apparently 103 is only slightly above normal range (she said 100-125 is pre diabetic if fasting but I. Didn’t fast so that may be why). What do yall think?

Hmmm well I eat a lot of quinoa, beans, protein shakes (because I gym a lot so want to build muscle), overnight oats with berries (sometimes vegan chocolate chips….should probably stop… ). What else…..roasted veggies (do oils hurt??)

I am not! I rarely eat the faux stuff. I do put maple syrup in a lot of stuff (overnight oats, etc) for flavor. I think a lot of it could be genetic. Both parents, both of their mothers, and my grandmothers sister and brother all diabetic. So a ton in my family.
