Something about yourself.

I has a similar experience. I got tested for a million things after being sick for 3+ weeks with flu like symptoms. I get a call from the doctor and he says "we dont know what you have, some sort of novel virus, but did you know you're diabetic?"

Lost 30 lbs while sick, which helped me kickstart lowering my A1C. I kept it off too. I dont know if I should be thankful for the disease or not lol.

Hey. I know this is another smokescreen, but as an employee of UCLA, this is actually frightening. They're already holding over 500 million in research funding from us. They're trying to kill our education system that helps thousands of students and millions of people around the globe.

I'm proud of you. I had a similar diagnosis. An A1C of 8.4, out of nowhere. With the help of being really really sick for 3 weeks, I lost 35lbs and went down to 5.9 in a few months. Still trying to go the distance. Keep it up.

I've been listening to a lot of sleep token and II is one hell of a drummer. It's not often I go back to listen to a song because the drums were so good.

I was at 255 and diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I'm on my way like you, down to 215, and this has given me a bit more motivation. You look great. Keep it up.

I run the Makerspace at UCLA. On Tuesday I saw the fire start and by the evening there were flames visible from my desk. I'm really concerned for my students. A lot of them have no where to go.

I think you may have found why many men cry at that scene.

I once had a CT scan, and the nurse swore to me that CT scans don't use XRays. I was so disappointed.

Did you just need someone to argue with?

Correct, but converting metric measurements between eachother is less error prone than converting between systems.

2 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

While I think scientifically and practically the metric system wins out, the fact that a base 12 system has a higher number of even divisions: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 over just 1, 2 and 5 is very useful. Using a base 10 number system with a base 12 measurement system does lend to issues. The main thing I tell my students (I run a makerspace at a university) is that if you are collaborating, pick one, and stick with it. Don't convert everything. Don't make another mars climate orbiter.

I was at 250lbs and my A1C was 8.4. Switched to a shitty keto diet, lost 35lbs and my A1C dropped to 5.9 in 4 months. You gucking got this. Make your endo question what theyvknow about diabetes.

This company tried to bully me off etsy for making a product that was similar to theirs, but had existed before they incorporated. I have no respect for Wyrmwood.

Humans are resilient. We may make our lives a living hell, but a livable hell nonetheless.

My cat chirps at birds like this, and also does one loud chirp at us when we pass by her or point at her. She meows normally as well.

Interesting, I didn't know that. Must just be ionized air and the direction the electricity is flowing

Thought it might be burning insulation, so it moves towards the ionized burning vapor.

Same here. I got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 4 months ago, lost 35 lbs, and all I want is french fries.
