I wasn't really aggrivated, mad, upset or anything when I found out. I was more of just anxious to begin learning, and understanding you have to take it in stride.
The thing with Type 1 is you just have to do what is best for your body personally. There are people on these forums who will swear off carbohydrates completely and say you have to watch what you eat with a religious and enduring passion, and others who say they eat pretty much whatever they want. It's about finding the right balance for what you need. The important thing to remember is there is medication out there that gives you what your body needs, and while throwing caution to the wind is not advisable, don't be one of the many who get caught in the trap that they think you have to eat ritualistically, monitor on the hour, etc.
That is just clock watching until your death. Don't become one of those people. Just approach every day with the attitude to apply effort. Cheat once in a while. Continue to enjoy the foods you like when you want them and cover appropriately. But maintain control, that's all. As much as people want to tell you that it's all about eating and sleeping the same things/at the same time every day for the rest of your life, the truth is, is that your life doesn't have to be any less flexible than anyone elses, and for the sake of being positive, you're getting an education on the costs and benefits of what goes into your body. That's valuable information that many other people take for granted.
Don't be upset, or afraid, or angry. It's a stock reply, I understand, but the second you let the disease control you, it has you for life. Look at some of the people on these boards who run a 160 sugar for an hour and a half and are nearly drawn to tears in frustration. That's not healthy either -- it's obsession. You'll figure it out.
