That's really good! I'm not a fan of dieticians to be honest - had bad experiences with all the ones I've seen in the past!
I am quite good with not having hypos or anything
just stabilising my sugars which is the problem /:
I am quite active - I work for Primark at the weekend so on my feet alot, I am a beaver leader so I do quite abit of walking camps hikes - I've not too long come back from a campin trip to Switzerland
and all the leaders are great with my diabetes
Plus looking to start my college gym
go there do an hot or so and then complete assignments
LOL
Marfmama - I know the feeling I have always had strong emotions and food - whenever I got down I was at the food - cake, biscuits etc... However slowly I h e found better things to do - like walk my dog or listen to an upbeat song
there is always a better way
Because I'm quite active with the hikes and camps I can have cake or a biscuit there to boost my sugars from becoming Too low
When I had diabetic ketoacidosis 5 years ago I had a lovely nurses in alder hay hospital (which is where I was transferred too whilst on life support) I couldn't thank or appreciate the nurses so much
I have never had good consultants or nurses! My diabetic ketoacidosis developed overnight - as soon as I was discharged my diabetes nurse came to see me at home and her and my consultant blamed me started yelling at me saying it was all my fault!
Now I don't really give a *beep* (sorry trying not to swear another one on my list of things to improve) haha! I have a Ben and jerrys ice cream in the freezer I'll have four teaspoonfuls when I feel like it or when I am really down
however I'll make sure that's all I have
hope that helps a little Marfmama - if you like add me On Facebook if you have it
