"The Sugar". A common slang term for Type 2 Diabetes. Well, Paula Deen has recently announced she has had Type 2 Diabetes for 3 years. Here is a gem of a quote from her recent coming out party.
"I have always eaten in moderation,"I despise that supposed healthy solution to eating right. It rarely works. Eating in moderation got Paula Deen The Sugar. People get sick when they try this as a life long strategy. Eliminate the crap from your diet to help avoid getting chronic diseases.

I'm willing to bet she's been diabetic for more than three years - that's just when she was diagnosed. This stuff just doesn't drop down on you out of the blue.
I also happen to agree with you about the whole "moderation" bit - It. Doesn't. Work. Moderately consuming refined grains refined sugars, and soy and industrial seed oils is like moderately consuming arsenic - it WILL kill you, slowly at first and then in a fairly horrible manner.
That being said, I don't know why everyone has their knickers in a twist over her refusal to change how she eats now that she's "gone public" - most of the diabetics I personally know have flat-out told me they'd rather take medication than give up bread/pasta/cookies/cake/ice cream/*insert dietary poison here*.

that is the world we live in. a world where a pill is a solution. the truth is, a pill is just the beginning of new problems. unwanted side effects in moderation.
