YW Moderator-72

Wishing all a wonderful and sweet year.

_________________________________________

From M’Shabbos on we are going to need a BIG Push to get out the vote! We will need fb and twitter support and as much online press as we can get.

Please spread the word!

And, Please remember to Vote M’Shabbos!

K’Siva V’Chasima Tova!

WellInformedYid – getting under 100 is my short term goal (next several hours). the ultimate goal is getting in the top 10 by the close of the contest on September 30, 2010 because the top 10 positions will receive the $50,000 grant.

If we can get this to go viral and pick up the support from Yidden from all over – the goal of getting in the top 10 is realistic.

We need everyone’s support in voting for us and for drumming up support for us. We lose 6 days for Yom Tov yet if we get the word out on the blogs Jewish news sites and get some good press with help from HaShem we can win and be able to provide these needed services.

Blinky – thanks! I hope it is counted also.

current standing: 107

Destination <100

Keep the support coming. I am sure if we can get this on the front page we will see a big jump in the numbers.

did you vote already today?

keep up the vote and let’s see if we can drop below 100!

don’t forget to vote everyday!

text the code: 102321

to pepsi which is: 73774

keep on voting friends – let’s see if we can break under 100 by the end of the day.

YWN Front page support will certainly help!

from e’Shabbos to M’Shabbos we lost 9 spots. Since Shabbos has been out here in the Greater NY Metro area we jumped 15 places!

with some good publicity and a lot of help we can really move forward. Please share the link and text numbers with all your contact lists and hopefully all the Yidden will rally around us and help us to serve our consumers.

We need a lot of support for this early on because we will lose at 6 voting days for Yom Tov.

thanks!

we lost a few spots over Shabbos. Please take time to register tonight and vote everyday online and on your cellphones!

thanks!

thanks mod-80 I appreciate it!

BOSD – that is what the dr said. she said I should take 1/2 a pill if my carb intake is high. I had a std dinner and I crashed anyway.

i asked my doc what causes this… if I eat to many carbs the interaction with the med causes it to drop. she said i should take 1/2 a pill and I didn’t calculate the carbs too well and I took a whole pill. I still feel off balance today.

“Health sciences student and what do you do?”

“When did I compare myself to a doctor or specialist?”

“I have every right to comment as a medical professional”

please do us all a favor: make up one story as to who you are and stick with it.

how does a health sciences STUDENT qualify you to comment as a medical professional? you can comment all you want, from the way I read the board most of the others really do not care what you have to say. you should understand one thing – a support group is not looking for a lecture they are looking to discuss feelings and real life scenarios. so keep on posting and I for one will just start ignoring you.

Health – If I was modding I would not have let your inane comment see the light of day. facts are facts. their is enough stress on these young ladies in the shidduch scene with diabetes. now for you to tell them that is it great that they are type 1 as opposed to type 2 because now they will probably be skinny only adds stress – especially to those that do not meet your criteria of the perfect woman.

Do you have any clue how many young ladies have emotional disorders trying to maintain a size 0 or size 2 at most? sorry – it isn’t healthy. btw if someone has an eating disorder would you tell them that it is great that they have anorexia or bulimia as opposed to overeating because at least that means that they are skinny?

forever1 – I understand the reality. sadly you are correct…

regarding lancets: rarely change them – maybe once a week or once every two weeks. maybe I will do change it tonight.

yes, I know it says retire next to my name and pretty much I am. 42 told me that this thread has been quite active lately.

I had an interesting experience last week. I had a fairly high carb (yes, whole wheat for those that remember me) and I took my normal bedtime meds. about 2 to 3 hours after I went to sleep I awoke with weird symptoms. dizzy, shaky, my heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest. I dragged myself to my kitchen and tested my sugar. it was 50! I did what I needed to do to raise the sugar.

It just so happened that I had an appointment with Dr. Kaplun in Suffern, NY, (my endocrinologist) the next day and she explained that the high carb intake caused the pancreas to produce insulin and the pill pushed it too far therefor the low sugar. She told to take 1/2 a pill after a high carb meal.
