Type 2 Diabetic Reacts To Foodie Beauty Blood Sugar Test

[@Bobblicious-nq8vq]

Great message James. There's always room for the voice of reason in GORLWORLD ❤

[@JamesBrightman]

Thank you for watching! I guess the newest addition to Gorlworld now lol

[@sezh4315]

I'm T2 and at my worst HbA1c was 13 ...now controlled with slow realease metformin, ozempic andDapagliflozin and my latest HbA1c is 4.9.. you are so correct in what you say. I think she thinks she can just take meds and still eat what she wants.

[@JamesBrightman]

Yeah, and I think a lot of people are under the impression that you can just take a drug and that's it - all cured! Well done on your HbA1c! I think mine was 5.5 on my last test a month ago. How are you finding Ozempic? My mum was on it for a while and it really helped her with her diabetes.

[@sezh4315]

@@JamesBrightman I was on max metformin, Dapagliflozin and max glicazide before ozempic, and it was still high.Started ozempic 2 years ago (before it was a "thing") and it really worked. Still on it but off the glicazide now, eveen though it is a pain trying to get it in the UK...cannot get the 0.5 dose so they have reduced me to the 0.25 whilst the shortages are ongoing. This has resulted in my HbAiC going up from 37 to 40 mmol n the last 3 months.

[@JamesBrightman]

Ah yes, in one of my previous videos I talked about how Trulicity was extremely difficult to get during the winter months because it doubles as a weight loss drug (new year resolutionists for you!) Hopefully you can get back on your normal dose soon!

[@HecticMolments]

I hope you continue to react to her, since you have the same condition she has and can speak from experience. Plus some of the other gorls, like maybe Amber. I love finding new reactors. I come at my reacts from both personal experience, and from a medical provider perspective as I was a paramedic for years. It's a good way to get good info out to people.

[@JamesBrightman]

Thank you for watching! I rather enjoy doing these reaction videos!

[@samtyers8236]

I'm surprised she's not had a major medical emergency

[@OBCDeeznutz]

Really appreciate your input on a this! I'm T2 but never got anywhere close to that bad. Idk her A1C but I think my highest and wake up call was 9...I never took my BS so Idk what the highest waa on that. I'm not perfect but at keaat I have more sense than her. Also, super proud of you taking on and improving your health! Get it!!

[@JamesBrightman]

Thank you for watching! Apparently her A1C after the latest hyperglycaemic event was just under 17. Exactly, perfection isn't required - just knowledge and understanding of what your blood sugar reacts to. That's very kind, thank you so much

[@zebzgame]

The denial on her face is infuriating, how can you honestly sit there seeing that number and wonder how or why especially when she isn't taking her medication. Blows my mind the stupidity but when she's got people in her chat telling her the wipes she uses to clean her desk are spiking her sugar up, I'm not surprised. I'm amazed she's even able to keep her head up with that number.

[@JamesBrightman]

If she keeps this up, she's going to be unable to stand on her own two feet - because she won't them!

[@VoltaReprieve]

Thanks for sharing this

[@JamesBrightman]

Thank you for watching! I wanted to give my thoughts as someone who has had high blood sugar experiences.

[@rachelburke9223]

she wouldnt and has never ever gone 12hrs with no food EVER

[@RY-nd4jh]

I dont understand how she isn't overwhelmed with terrible symptoms constantly being at those kinda numbers

[@JamesBrightman]

She probably has a wealth of issues we don't know about, I reckon! Peeing constantly, thirsty constantly, bad sleep, fuzzy brain, UTIs, all sorts. The worst will be when she gets cuts that refuse to heal - she'll be screwed then.

[@joannirotten]

The body eventually "gets used to" having sky-high blood sugar levels so she won't feel very ill...a T2 friend of my mother's felt fine, until she wasn't, and passed in a coma.

[@JamesBrightman]

@@joannirotten Yeah, your body accepts it as a new normal and then will just give up when its finished destroying itself.

[@greendragon4058]

Maybe her body is used to it? I'm not sure this has been going on for a long time with her

[@JamesBrightman]

@@greendragon4058 At the end of the day, we don't know how she really feels - physically or mentally - so we're all speculating really.

[@Visenya1617-ns3hk]

Thanks for making this video. 😊

[@JamesBrightman]

Thank you for watching it!

[@Callimo]

Oh, my friend, I hope you see her newest vid, because even after seeing the doctor and finally taking her meds, her sugars were still at like 16.

[@JamesBrightman]

Yes, I did a video about that one too lol

[@suzannew4239]

Great commentary. New sub here!

[@JamesBrightman]

Welcome in, thank you so much

[@southernsquirrelgaming]

3 days later she is already back to eating bread rice and fruit and eating on camera. she is already trying to get mukbangs back on her channel.

[@Kat_Stewart]

She’s out of range daily for years. That’s the scarier part…

[@JamesBrightman]

I saw a clip of her from a few years ago where she said her diabetes was "cured" when her sugars were 5mmol, so that's back to bite her on the behind eh?

[@RY-nd4jh]

​@JamesBrightman she claimed doing coke caused enough weight-loss to cure her diabetes then, she's always been delusional

[@greendragon4058]

​@@JamesBrightmanI don't think you can cure diabetes I believe you can manage it

[@CatC-cow]

I enjoyed this because I do not really understand how bad something is with the gorls. I have not had any personal experience with diabetes in my own body and it’s sometimes seems like reactors are people who never really got to the point where they were terribly ill with diabetes.

[@JamesBrightman]

This woman is in dire straits, I can tell you that for nothing.

[@HecticMolments]

Trying to justify drinking juice because it's 'natural sugar'. That doesn't matter and a lot of ppl don't get that. It's still sugar, it's still turned into the same substance in your body. And most people eat to much of it via actual sugar stuff, or carbs (and all the processed food is the worst, but even 'healthy ones' need to be limited depending on your health and lifestyle). She will jump through any hoop possible to try to make it seem ok for her to eat whatever she wants, as much as she wants. And don't feel bad for her. People have been telling her for a long time how serious all this is. She doesn't care. She takes for granted she was born in a perfectly able body, and she's skirted death more times than most people do. Do you know that she's even had pulmonary embolisms (yes, more than one)? Just all these things, and nothing ever makes her change. She is just greedy and above all else LAZY and entitled. She really thinks this will pass and she'll take a med or two and be just fine to go back to laying at home 23 hours a day and mukbanging family-sized meals of junk for a few more years before she 'really' has to worry about it. She's going to learn a VERY hard lesson and sooner rather than later.

[@JamesBrightman]

As a diabetic I avoid fruit juice at ALL costs! Wow, she seems like she's had alot of issues due to her masses of overeating.

[@samtyers8236]

The rice would be yellow if it had saffron in it

[@samtyers8236]

I think her eyes are damaged by her uncontrolled diabetes

[@Barbaryotaku]

Fruit juice seems like a bad idea as it has sugar of fruit but no fibre to slow its release. She seemed confident about her health due to recent weight loss, but isn't weight loss also a symptom of diabetes?

[@JamesBrightman]

That's right, if your diabetes is uncontrolled you will get unintentional weight loss. This is because there is so much sugar in your blood that the body will try to expel it through your kidneys and use fat and muscle as energy sources instead, thus leading to weight loss. This is also why Foodie gets urinary infections; glucose expelled by urine will give a source of sustenance to the bacteria down there.

[@whyme7996]

We can actually see her vision deteriorating. I think that she'd find a way to be OK with losing toes because she could still be on YT. But, if she goes completely blind, I don't think she'll live long after that.

[@JamesBrightman]

Ah yes, I bet she's never gotten checked for retinopathy or anything like that. You're right, she's the kind of gorl to use self-inflicted disability as a way to get sympathy from her fanbase.

[@wuggybuttz3923]

Nah. Scatman will point her at the camera & tell her to start at 12o'clock. There'll be little difference between how much she eats & how much she wears

[@BakerCoffeeMaker]

You know how foodietooties face was swollen in a lopsided way, is it my imagination or has that swelling evened out on both sides? Is that a symptom of something? My. Goodness.

[@JamesBrightman]

I did notice how extremely red her face was in the video. I wouldn't be surprised if she has the start of angioedema, especially considering how much she's been eating on video.

[@VerminaeSupremacy]

My grandma died due to a lifetime of complications due to metabolic dysfunction and SD2 aged 65. She only got morbidly obese after 2000, because here in Russia there was not much food to eat throughout 80s and 90s, but her decaying before our eyes even eating somewhat healthy foods but never measuring sugar or portions, having projectile diarrhea and parchment dry skin and rashes in skin folds, had been haunting me for a while after recalling my childhood as an adult. This also motivated me to lean down when I tipped scales at 107 kilos eventually due to stress-fueled mindless grazing and lack of exercise. How this person is yet alive despite abusing her body for two decades is unbelievable to me as I saw my grandma going to meet Jesus without fast food on plate every day with a condition like this in just years of eating whatever without restraint

[@JamesBrightman]

My grandfather was from Ukraine and was very much the same way. He fled from famine in the 30s and when he eventually arrived to the UK, he partook in all the culinary delights. This led to his diabetes diagnosis and eventual death. I'm so sorry for your loss and I can completely understand your reasons for wanting to change your habits.

[@VerminaeSupremacy]

@@JamesBrightman early life malnourishment suffered by people across Soviet Union geography and throughout the seven decades of its existence due to mismanagement and abuse wrought havoc on generations, biologists figured that such events are capable of swapping gene expression and lead to neuroticism and higher propensity to obesity and slow starvation-mode metabolism, and then the generational trauma of war kids was inflicted upon us in more prosperous times and ruined our perception of food. Grandma was not a nice person when in bad mood, and me choking on soup texture or plain poultry stock or fatty meat pieces in borsch earned me her screaming ire and hours of torture at the table. I was not allowed to feed however much or whatever I would choose, only treats I was allowed to pick from, and this really messed up as I matured and got to buy whatever I wanted. I only wanted treats and booze I wouldn’t have at home. To think about it, she died almost 20 years ago, but everything messed up about the nature of things in the family ends up at my table to work through and make peace with as I shed their secondhand coping strategies and our logical revolt to what made sense for them but not for us, and figure my own life. Great that your family got out! I think I caught on that you’re 22-23 stones, which is approximately 150 kilos or 320-something lbs I suppose? Sir, if you were 500 lbs, that’s more than me at my heaviest that you already lost. Keep on keeping on, you’re doing amazing job, not many people who spent big portion of their life severely overweight and also have metabolic issues like yours find physical strength and willpower to fight

[@linniefish]

Great video. I hope she watches

[@JamesBrightman]

She might, but she won't listen to my concerns!

[@greendragon4058]

​@@JamesBrightmanwhat did you make all the hater I noticed that in her last live through another Channel everybody that was trying to give her a good advice her moderators kicked him out for hate speech

[@JamesBrightman]

@@greendragon4058 It appears that she has cultivated an echo chamber in her fanbase where any dissenting views are punished. Scary really, because the very few people left with real concerns are shunted away by placaters.

[@greendragon4058]

@@JamesBrightman yeah it's pretty sad without criticism you can't learn to do things right. She's got her little hug box and she drives me insane I guess I have a morbid fascination with this. I lost my brother-in-law years ago to diabetes it was adult onset diabetes and it just brings back all the memories of what my sister went through what their kids went through he is so tired at the end they had already taken his leg all the way up to his knee he still kept it eating junk just like Chantelle taking dialysis at home. When his kids graduated high school he said I'm done and it was just a couple weeks after that he passed. She has no idea what she's in for makes me sad cuz I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy

[@samtyers8236]

Has she even eaten any of the spinach

Happy pride from an asexual 🌈

Is that her normal?

can you speak up next time or get a better mic?

Yeah sorry about that. I've adjusted volume and gain so the next video should be fine! Thanks for pointing it out 😸
