Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 Another plea from me: I don't constantly denigrate the low-carb WOE or any other WOE that list members discuss and say works for them. I would appreciate it if people would please refrain from comments such as this. I'm REALLY getting tired of them! Teri Re: QUESTION OF PERCENTS Susie, I think the diet we experience might be called the feedlot diet. One fellow compared the ADA diet to the contents of his feedsack, the proportions were the same as those to fatten animals.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 Teri, it is you that interpreted the comments as being low carb, it was not mentioned. Seems to me you read things that others do not.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 Sam, read my entire comment. I said " low-carb or any other WOE. " It's like politics. I'd rather hear the positives of what works for you instead of the negatives of the methods that don't work for you or the ones you don't like.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 Teri, I'm not sure what you expect, discuss needles and shots and pills? Meters and lancets? What do you think, we can't talk about WOE? I think that isa basic to solving diabetic problems. I see no possibility of improvement without an alteration of diet. I see too many go the pill only route, and it seems to me that insulin use is the last straw. I got off insulin to oral, went back on insulin due to failure to change my diet. I changed my diet, went back on oral, now on diet only. And we are not to mention WOE or diet? Tell us how you take care of yourself.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 Sam, you're missing the whole point. The point is negativity and just plain lack of respect. Actually, I'd email you on this, but you don't answer me when I email you. Here's the comment you relayed that started this discussion: " I think the diet we experience might be called the feedlot diet. One fellow compared the ADA diet to the contents of his feedsack, the proportions were the same as those to fatten animals. " No, I'm NOT saying don't discuss WOE. I'm saying speak positively about what works well for you instead of making sweeping negative statements about other WOE's. Is that too much to ask?
