Ni hau @meaganpavey welcome. I can’t wait to hear about life as a diabetic in China. Do you get your diabetes care locally? How do you find it?
We were there for 4 weeks a few years ago and loved it. Whenever we walk around a market now we’re always disappointed when we don’t see a child wandering round chewing on a frog on a stick like a lollipop. We loved the food out there but I did have a bit of a carb counting disaster with a dumpling banquet in Xian! http://www.shootuporputup.co.uk/2009/05/the-chinese-dumpling-experience/
