First SharePost!

By Daria Saturday, January 03, 2009

Hello :)

Just trying this out, getting the hang of how this all works! I'm looking forward to being able to read tips and stories from people with all sorts of differerent experiences. I absolutly love the whole notion of being able to help and recieve help for the issues that could otherwise cripple one in their day to day life.

Feel free to ask me anything! I can only offer my own experience and hope it helps :)

Hey Daria, welcome to the site!

 

So are you in college or recently started college?  I'm on Lantus and Novolog, too.

 

There are a lot of different posts here, but I wanted to give you a few links to some that might be helpful right off the bat:


A collection of inspiring and relatable posts from other teens


What am I supposed to eat?


Getting back into control of your diabetes!


The Carbohydrate Quiz


Diabetes & Alcohol

 

Living Well With Diabetes!

 

 

I read your profile, too, and it sounds like you've already seriously conquered several challenges in your life -- it's impressive and I admire your honesty!

 

What are some of the specific goals you've set for your diabetes?

 

Thanks for posting :)
