Have you ever noticed in the real world when you have similar interest as other people you join up.Whether It's sports, dancing, crafts, scrapbooking and other interests. You becomes friends with others that share your interests. During college you may join a fraternity or sorority for socializing and friendship.
Online we search out for support forums, groups, chats or blogs if we are facing a life changing and possible life threatening illness. We choose to surround ourselves with others experiencing the same things we are. It's easier sometimes than talking face-to-face with our families and friends. An anonymous screen name will tell you the truth without the sugar coating, whether you want to hear it or not.
Take each bit of advice with a grain of salt and find the answers yourself. I've been getting good advice on the ADA (American Diabetes Association) website and in the Type2 forum plus I've been directed to read blogs. I'm new to this club , so other than my diagnosis it's all good.
I just don't remember asking to join this "club"! If I don't pay the membership dues can I be kicked out? Please.
Maybe eating what I want and as much as I wanted for 40 years was paying my dues.
It's just hard to change my ways. If I don't , I could die sooner. That's reality without the sugar coating.
