^^^^^this. Bravo! I'm sick of the victim generation.

Grow some thicker skin. The reason that MOST of us (not all) are fat is our own fault. Own it. Yes, I'm fat, but I'm also nice, smart, and have a good smile.

Did you actually do a search on it? If you had, you'd see that it's very common, especially for men.

Don't know why the other post was blank... maybe the 'G' word is unacceptable? Use a search engine to find vegetarian+hair loss. It's not a healthy diet, but it's your decision. Yours, not his. Make the man his steak and be happy with your processed soy.

Google Vegetarian +Hair Loss. Vegetarian diets are not healthy. If you don't want to eat meat, don't. That doesn't mean you can't make him a nice steak while you eat processed soy.

If you're going to go that way, be CERTAIN to get all the nutrients you need. My son eats vegan and is now going bald at 21. (Just Google Vegan+hair loss)

Hi rbj and welcome! I've been T2 for about 10 years with varying amounts of control. I finally got great advice and am in the 100s pretty consistently. Are you T1, T2 without insulin, or T2 with insulin? Very different for each of the 3. In a nutshell, aim for 3 or 4 meals with 40 carbs each or less. Forget all the other…

She still likes to feel in control of her life, but it's in a healthy way. Congrats on the decision to…

There is an EXCELLENT group on FB entitled "Support for neuropathy". So many ideas from people dealing with it, at all stages. https://www.facebook.com/groups/supportforneuropathy/?fref=ts

Tried the Matcha over the weekend at a coffee convention. It was iced and tasted like it had wheat grass in it. How do you make smoothies that better its flavor?

So Delicious Vanilla Coconut Milk. I never thought I'd jump on that bandwagon, but cannot ever imagine drinking cow's milk again. The colder, the better. Tastes like dessert.

Except it IS other people's business when they use taxpayer services for health care, or stick the taxpayers for a disability check every month.

You're beautiful in all of the photos (incredible eyes!). But healthy is always better. Well done!

It depends WHY you're eating. Alkaline foods tend to be non-inflammatory. For me, I have the beginnings of diabetic neuropathy. I am eating alkaline/non-inflammatory to stave that off. So far, it seems to be working. The weight loss doesn't really matter to me (though I am slowly losing); the lack of pain and lack of…
