Personalized Feedback Doesn't Always Help Diabetes Self-Management

Of course not.

Type 2 diabetes is fat person diabetes and the personalized feedback, "Hey, you are a fat f**k making yourself sick with a disease of choice," did not help.

Canadian researchers were surprised when personalized computer-generated feedback mailed to type 2 diabetics didn't help them improve their glycemic control.

Maybe, the lead author told Reuters Health by email, the messages weren't powerful enough. Or paper-based feedback may have been too passive.

Or the fat are just plain too stupid.
