Welcome to my diabetic community

I have decided to build this blog to be an online diabetic community where you can share your diabetic lifestyle with others. Somewhere you and others can share thoughts and ideas on living and coping with diabetes.
The objective of this blog, my lens and my website is to help others either ease into the fact that now they have to live with this new problem in their life.
There are general facts about diabetes everywhere on my website. If you see anything that is not true contact me and I will remove it. It is my intention to educate people on how to live with diabetes in their life today. I am not a doctor or any type of medical person. I am just an average person who found out I was a diabetic. More information on myself is available on the about me page of my website.
I have have built this blogging section to help people that want to ask questions, but might not know who to ask, perhaps because they think it is a foolish question or they just don’t know who to ask. I know I had a lot of those. Or maybe they would like a different way of accomplishing something, such as you don’t like the diet the doctor gave you. Well, there is no actual diabetic diet. I know when the doctor told me what I was supposed to eat, I was ready to look for another doctor. Hopefully, myself or someone will be able to answer your questions or at least guide you in the right direction for answers. It is also for other people or myself who wish to share anything that could be of value to anyone with diabetes or even possibly someone whom you might know that is a diabetic.
Diabetes is a terrible illness, but it does not mean the end of your life. It just means you might have to change a thing or two.
If you or someone you know has diabetes, take a look around my website and my lens. My website could offer some type of information you have been looking for. I have a dieting section, complete with recipes(some, the recipe part is slow going, I am not a major chef and I don't want to steal anyone elses recipes), but all the nutritional information is correct. I also have a section on exercising, a section on vitamins and some other tips about living with diabetes. And of course I also have advertising, but all advertising is for products I use, have used, or fully understand and therefore I will recommend. If anyone has any bad experience with any product I endorse, please let me know. This might be a product that I recommend, but have not used. Such as the alli, which is the only diet plan recommended by the FDA, and I have yet to hear anything bad about alli except it cost to much. But if you cannot lose weight by limiting your calories and exercise, then by what means can someone justify saying that something is to expensive when it is in regards to your personal health? I say if you can't lose weight in the conventional manner and alli helps you lose weight, go for it! Anything that improves your personal health and helps you control your blood sugar does not cost to much.
