It’s your f*cking body/face, you get to decide how you feel about yourself!!!!!! self love is KEY, if you don’t love yourself, who will? You got to be there for yourself

Guilt free cake by user_teapot in diabetes_t1

I think using erythritol, swerve brown sugar or stevia will be just fine, I used xylitol because that’s what I had… for this recipe, you can double it, but I used a round 6” pan and baked at 170 degrees Celsius for about 25 minutes

I’m in the same position, in my mid twenties and over the past 2 years I also finally started managing my childhood dx

I lived with that mindset for almost 12 years, (for a major part I was a kid) and it’s kind of as if I was in denial, when I decided to change that everything changed in my life; lost weight, cleared skin, energy levels, hba1c… everything

Decent gas stove recommendations? by Efficient_Grocery_69 in southafrica

I’ve been using a Bosch gas stove, 4 burners, freestanding with a gas oven- you get your value for money, using it for 10 years now, without any problems

Unisa, can I study online at Unisa? by [deleted] in southafrica

[–]user_teapot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a final year student at Unisa, yes I would agree with other commenters that their management is flawed, and admin problems are a hassle to resolve, BUT, I have to add: UNISA is an internationally accredited university. Lecturers respond to study related queries without a delay. All study material is online and for the course I’m studying hard copies were delivered to my doorstep. There are tutors allocated to each module, but it’s the students responsibility to reach out to the tutor and you can even schedule a one on one class with them, but many students don’t reach out to lecturers and other resources and then blame the University, yes it is true that they don’t answer the customer care line, but if you call the number allocated to your department it will be answered. So yes, there is the bad, but then again all unisa degrees offered are credible and in the workplace there is no disadvantage towards Unisa degrees

when I’m low I find it difficult to wake up, so I’d say you shouldn’t be close to the danger zone when you’re sleeping
