About Me
I'm a graphic designer, massage therapist and the past two years a Jenny Craig Consultant, in that order. Graphic Designer for many years, now I just freelance at home. I used to do the massage therapy from my home weekends and some evenings until I got sick with pancreatitis which put me down for 2 years. When I recovered I started working for Jenny Craig which I love because I'm teaching people how to be healthy through diet and exercise. I'm a type I diabetic due to the pancreatitis and just started on the OmniPod this week still with water in it until I get it down, then start the insulin in two weeks. Thanks for creating this site. It really helps psychologically and takes the loneliness factor out of this diabetes equation. Bless everyone here!!! Post a CommentOops!The words you entered did not match the given text.

Oh, that's really cool! I'm trying to figure out my whole diet thing. The way we eat is so intricately woven into our diabetes care. Every single things that gets into my blood stream reacts differently and I have to figure it all out again.
I wish it was as simple as "30g carbs=5 units insulin" but it's not! Has Jenny Craig consultating helped you to understand diabetes any better?
Hi Janet,
How's your Pod going? Please feel free to ask any questions. You can also contact me via email at andyma@charter.net I was Insulet's first "paid " pod user so I do have some experience and probably have experienced much of what you are going through. I'm prejudice but I think you'll love it, Andy
Hi Janet! Thanks so much! Sorry it took me so long to "accept" you as a friend here- I didn't realize I had you queuing up over there! haha.
How's things going? Graphic design is pretty nice! Is that for web sites, or book designs/ photography corrections? Or, maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about. haha.
Hi Janet
Welcome and I can not tell you how happy I am you found this site. We are all here for one another and that will help to keep away the loneliness you talked about. Congrats on the OmniPod. I have the Ping. Going on the pump was like the best choice I have made in a long time. So yeah ... the site is always updating so come back often to check out all of Bill and Suzanne's work. Michael ^_^
Janet, Thanks so much for joining. So excited for you and your new venture with the OmniPod! Thanks a ton can't wait to hear more from you... any Tips I could include for the Carbs video?
Going tomorrow for a full day at the spa... birthday present from my significant other.... ahhhhhh
