type 1 diabetes is not influenced by diet, lifestyle or exercise which you could have known if you had read the first few paragraphs of the blog you're commenting about
i'm sympathetic to her health concerns (obviously) but the blog post is about type 1 and your girlfriend seems to have type 2. although they have similar names, their causes are unrelated.
from my perspective you are responding to a blog about the complications of a terrible, incurable illness with "you need more exercise" which has no impact on type 1.
for completeness: yes, diet and exercise does change the amount of insulin a type 1 diabetic needs, but it does not "get better" or "go away".
the type 1 diabetics i know actually live very healthy lives by necessity because they need to constantly keep track of their carb consumption so they can adjust the insulin amount.
I urge you to learn the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes: https://joslin.org/news-stories/all-news-stories/education/2...
My family is unfortunately rife with Type 1. Even appearing later in life with no connection to diet/activity. It's a genetic problem.
I empathize with people with Type 2, but it's a different disease.
For everyone blaming the author for her attitude, imagine being the recipient of "advice" of this calibre for your entire life.

Your comment is off-topic (and seemly very private). I think you may have commented on the wrong post.
