Guest guest Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hello All -- I'm Cassell. I have RP and am legally blind, having only light perception. I've just recently been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, so I'm a newbie to all this diabetes stuff. I'm on medications at the moment, not insulin, but I imagine that's probably just down the road for me, though quite honestly, I really don't yet know what to expect. I was glad to find this list. I recently stumbled across it on Blind Tech, and thought it might be of benefit to me to sign up. Right now, I'm trying to find out what foods I can and cannot eat, and in what quantities. I just downloaded an armful of books on the subject of diabetes, so I have my reading cut out for me. What I did find interesting in the brief skimming I've done though, is that it seems that almost nothing is off limits, if eaten in moderation (Cheesecake and Sees candies???). Obviously I have a lot to learn, and I'm sure this will be the right place for that. I look forward to learning from and interacting with all of you. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
