The toast man.


Carbo and his weapons grade bread discovered.



Eddie,

Please take the picture I took of a loaf of bread off your blog. You have not asked permission to use my photograph. As a professional photographer yourself I would have expected you to understand the basic courtesies of using other people's work.

If you have not taken the photo off your blog within 24 hours I will have no option other than to complain to Google about your misappropriation of my work.

Regards, Tubs.

Who owns this rucksack !

While other brave souls are posting photographs of themselves on the thread 'do you imagine what other forum members look like'  over at diabetes.co.uk, this individual posts the photograph below. Who is this person ? Is it a spammer selling rucksacks, no. It’s a regular poster known as the “slippery one” A low carb anti, and disciple of the American Dietition, No Hope Warshaw. A regular at the mind confusing blog, Carb Sane Asylum, a blog set up to rubbish certain people. Carbsane is a person who is besotted with Jimmy Moore and Gary Taubes, and demonstrates the very thin line between love and hate.So who owns this rucksack ? That’s all the clues you are going to get. The first three correct entries, will be put into the grand draw, and will get the chance to compete, in our forthcoming competition. What’s in that Rucksack ? We know, and it is not for the faint hearted, or lowcarb diabetic !

"Though it is but a family snapshot I still retain the copyright of the photo published on this page, and have not given you permission to publish it. Please remove it or I will report it to google.typeonepointfive aka phoenix at diabetes.co.uk

ps you should try some distance walking someday, you would be surprised at how much it improves your insulin sensitivity."



My reply to the Carbo “riposte”

Oh no Carbo, your ham fisted riposte just won’t do, I had expected so much more from you. Do you think you can dissect me with your fly blown blog. You know what you look like to me Carbo, with your bag of do-nuts and packets of hobnobs? You look obese, overweight, and a high carb low fat failure. Good nutrition’s given you some length of bone, but too many carbs have lead to your downfall. You’re not more than one Jammie Dodger from your next hyper, are you, Carbo.

Carbo, that accent you've tried so desperately to shed, pure West Brom. You know how quickly the tuck shop found you, all those tedious sticky fumblings at the back of the class, with crispy cream do-nuts and chocolate digestives, While you could only dream of getting out…... Getting…anywhere.….getting all the way…….to the weight watchers club.

A low carb anti, once tried to test me, I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.

First principles, Carbo. Simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing ask: what is it in itself? What is its nature? What do you do, what do you seek? Err sticky buns, NO ! What is the first and principal thing that drives you? Toast. NO !, err heroic amounts of toast, NO !, that is incidental. You covet, that is your nature. And how do we begin to covet, Carbo ? We covet with our eyes. What needs do you serve by eating? Anger, um, social acceptance, and, huh, sexual frustrations, NO, We begin by coveting what we see every day. Don't you love eating those Mars bars and chocolate digestives Carbo? and don't your eyes seek out the things you want ? Err yes.

Look for severe childhood disturbances associated with roast spuds, rice, and toast. You wasn't born a glutton, and an anti lowcarber Carbo. You was made one through years of systematic sugar and starch abuse. You hate your own identity, you see, and you think if you can bring every newbie and confused
diabetic down to your level, you will feel good about yourself. That you won‘t wake up in the middle of the night, screaming and craving toast, you won’t be the only one raiding the biscuit barrel, and shovelling pies and cakes down your neck, you won't be the only one, that can’t say no, to a fried Mars bar. Am I right, or am I right?

You are right Eddie.

Thank you Carbo. One more thing, luv ya suit!

The 300 slice Carbo Turbo Toaster.

  1. That looks a lot like Nellie's rucksack. It's likely full of whole grains and skewed statistics. But I could be wrong, so don't take my word for it.

    I'd also like to propose a toast to Carbo's good health. No, no! Hang about! More toast is not the answer here.

    Is now a good time to mention chocolate digestives? I thought not.

    Is Carbo low-carbing in secret and using a toast smoke screen? We need to be told.

  3. Carbo has tried for years to promote a lifestyle that has been a total failure for him. Carbs and more carbs.Just does not work. For a diabetic carbs are a disaster.

  6. This has been an eye opener for me, Carbophile has been living a lie and misleading others. He must be very naive to think his diet is sustainable in the long term, it can only end in tears.

  8. How desperate are they over at Tubolards blog. The best example I have ever seen on the dangers of a high carb, cover it with medication zombie existence. Carbo will need more than a diet based on toast to save him.

    From his blog.

    “DCUK is a train crash happening in slow motion, the fat controller now is Edie and his pals ably assisted by his pal beeny-dickt on the footplate, grazer tooting his whistle furiously at anything that moves and little old borofergie who tries hard to be intelligent, apparently he has a degree, not in diabetes though! Signals at red but no matter, just blindly lead new members astray and make out only they know what they are talking about!”

  12. Oh phoenix, thank you for gracing our humble blog. For so long, I have appreciated your very special talents. Very cleverly, walking that tight rope, between total stupidity, and being the “intellectual backbone of the diabetes.co uk forum” it requires very special skills. As we all know, you have insulin, a pump, and test strips, and access to top notch diabetes care.

    Tell me phoenix , why do you align yourself with that obnoxious Kenny boy, and that frightful Tubolard aka Carbophile. I see you are a follower of that lunatic dietition, Hope Warshaw, and the weight loss in progress Carb sane asylum.

    Please tell me phoenix, what makes a person, such as you, hang around at diabetes.co.uk spreading fear and alarm. What makes you so against, the type two’s who can control their diabetes with a low carb diet, and no med’s. I appreciate you live on a diet around 40-60% carbs. But please tell the type two’s, that cannot even get a test strip, from their Gps, how they can gain control, and hold safe BG numbers.

    I look forward to your reply.

    Eddie

  15. Over at Carbos bog.

    “Here's an opportunity to discuss your favourite troll and why? No prizes for the most witty comment, but plenty of kudos nonetheless.”

    This from the guy that was Gothrosie and bungle on various diabetes forums, and his bloated pumper side kick carbs reunited SarahQ aka SueM, aka carbsrock. They must be as thick as Carbos waistline.

  16. "You could also view the volume of repeats as an attempt to push this entertaining piece further down the viewing schedule. If I were Edie I'd just delete it and attempt to pretend that I hadn't written it".

    Carbo reckons your trying to hide this post.

  19. Hello! Phoenix good of you to drop in, I see your still pushing your low GI diet at DCUK unfortunately it does not seem to be generating any interest, as has been the case for the last three years. You really need a Type2 role model, may I recommend your friend tubolard a shining example of the benefits of the GI diet, I'm sure he fits in the Hope Warshaw range of 45 – 60% cals from carbs.

    I've been viewing some of the low GI foods the you include in your diet:

    Croissants and bread seem the norm for breakfast.

    “The wine flows very freely. There is no choice, but it was all good, charcuterie, duck, salad, sauté potatoes, cheeseboard, tarte aux myrtilles”

    “odd handful of chocolate apricots”

    with a large number of slightly spicy baked potatoes (sans skin)...

    “thin slice of 'Opera', a gateau filled with a chocolate mousse”

    Looks very nice too, just one thing that worries me, it's when you exclaimed “I’ve no idea where that came from” when you saw 11.4mmol/L on your meter. I would have thought that as you know
    that trying to achieve 'normal' levels in T1 is a matter of balancing carb intake, insulin dose and exercise, you would have the answer.

    I’ve no idea where that came from D'oh!

    Regards
    Graham

    P.S. I bet you miss me don't you!

    No it's not a good time to mention chocolate digestives, and I would not mention the compulsory four finger dark chocolate kit-kat nor the odd jammy dodger.

  22. Silly me there was I thinking GI stood for glycemic index when apparently it refers to Gross Indulgence!

    Leave the poor carbo alone addiction is a tough nut to crack, and if it's Ginger nuts he will take double helpings!!
