One of the things that fucking blows about being a T1 diabetic is best described like this.

You know how people like to say that turkey makes you tired at Thanksgiving dinner and they need to nap after, but it's actually just all the garbage they ate? Eating for me is like that, except for it's every day, for about 3hrs after, and 10x worse.

That sucks man. Its gotta piss you off warching people eat themselves into type II land.

100%, it's one of the most insane things to me. People voluntarily getting to the point I'm at involuntarily. I'm like, hey, sometimes it feels like someone is drilling through my feet with a molten hot drill bit, do you think that fucking donut is worth that? They don't care. They will cry for sympathy when they lose a foot or vision though. Another thing that's slowly degrading for me... Vision. And, I do almost everything right when it comes. To blood sugar management. It's nuts.

I have family that are pretty far down that path...its madness.
