  1. There's no need to die from it. Go on Facebook and look for a group called Reversing Diabetes. It has like 40-45K members. It doesn't "cure" diabetes so don't get hung up on the name, but the "way of eating" WOE if followed, will roll back your A1C to a 4.5 to 5. Then your body will heal.

  3. A Glassdoor out of the AMA Diabetic Trap on 'Watershed' Medical Trial Proves Type 2 Diabetes Can Be Reversed (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    For those of you who have followed your doctor's orders to manage your diabetes and discovered, it just gets worse over time.. here's another option.. https://www.facebook.com/group... See the pinned post which has a link to all of the literature. The idea is that not only do you eat low carb, but eat 70% fats as an energy source. Moderate protein. Basically it's a keto diet. The diabetes isn't cured but since you are only eating 20 carbs a day, you are only needing insulin for 20 carbs a day. If your body needs more, it breaks down your own body fat to get it. Protein has carbs too so the protein intake is moderate. Many members achieve a 4.5 to 5 A1C and reduce or eliminate any needs for medicine. This group has about 42K members..

    The confusion here is that type II can lose the ability to make insulin. They are still type II but the symptoms are similar to type I. No insulin. It doesn't repair itself iether. So for all it's worth, you are just like a type one.

    Not all diabetics are overweight. I am not. But you still have diabetes. What this does is make management easier by eliminating carbs. The side effect is you lose weight if you are overweight and otherwise just stable out.

    I havent had it in a few years but back then, it had a lot of carbs in it. My sugar was not under control drinking it.

    Is this a bad thing? Pirate bay needs to fund itself and make money. None of the users are paying them for the services.. Other than using cpu cycles, is there a down side to this?

    I wonder if the smaller facebook group was a honeypot to attract those who were willing to post awful things to show their inner degradation?

  18. More solid advice.. on Ask Slashdot: How To Get Started With Programming? [2017 Edition] · · Score: 1

    How about focusing first on what you want to work with? For example.. phone tech? Apple? Android? Do you want to work in a company doing database design and maintenance? What are your skills? Are you good at .. what? Maybe you are a math whiz? It's a hard question to answer so perhaps coming from the angle of what you want to accomplish with that would be the best approach? At your age, you might not have a clue.. but you can start thinking that way..

  20. I can picture the Dean, the Lord of the campus, just saying "He's not gonna move here?, He's fired today. That will show him." *Just think Animal House* They got what they deserved. He was the IT Admin. They should have worked with him to transition him out in a careful and respectful manner. Then he would have made sure everything was kosher before signing off for the last time. i did read he immediately returned the laptop that had the password on it. They flushed it..

    That's a legal argument. I own a DVD with a movie on it, no one else is going to know I have it or care what I do with it. For all purposes, I can put it in a player and watch it ad nausea..
