I run into this alot. I am 5'11 210-215lbs atheltic build, yet when people find out I have the big D they alway's go something like "why don't you stop eating" or something similar. I always get frustrated like, they think I am weak or something, I am not saying I am mister perfect, but I am not out of shape. Then if I explain to them that I am type 1 and it doesn't matter what I do, I will always need insulin of some kind, ""unless there is a cure"". Then I explain to them that even people that are overweight, have no choice. Even if they lose the weight, there is something that "GOD" gave us that makes our pancreas's different than other people's. So the over weight loses the weight and get of the med's, but they are still diabetic, in my opinion I don't know that much about type 2 it is just my opinion.
I know I shouldn't worry what other people think, just walk down the street with my pump hanging out. No no I try to hide it, I don't want people to know because I always have the conversation above, which I don't want to have. I bet you I am not the only one, and would like to hear what everyone thinks. I am open for suggestions.
