> Every ingestion of food or liquid affects your body and needs to be considered.
You know, it's funny. I've had Type 1 Diabetes since I was 13, more than 15 years ago. I just can't imagine what it's like to not think about everything you eat. I have to do several math equations every time I eat just to survive. At this point it's just a part of eating, there is no alternative. The idea of eating a donut and not worrying about feeling like shit for the next two hours is totally foreign to me.
I always say, if you want to monitor your food intake, just become a Type 1 Diabetic. You will consider everything you eat :)
