Hi all, I've had a fasting blood of 6.4 and an offer from my GP to have it tested again next year . I've insisted on something more and been offered a dietician's appointment (3 months later ). I know that testing is the way forward as I'm not motivated to lose weight but I am motivated to avoid negative health consequences. Testing and logging food worked in my last pregnancy 9 years ago but weight's crept up and blood sugar control gone down.
My issue is that I nibble on food when I'm feeling stressed. I feel I need it like a crutch, to support me as right now I'm doing the paperwork for a financial settlement following relationship ending. I'm good at focusing on one thing at a time and I let my eating get disordered as some sort of way to blow off steam--sometimes I eat healthy food, sometimes I don't eat, and since this latest diagnosis I've managed not to go deliberately to buy 'bad' food to eat (still stuff in house as kids).
For the next few weeks, How can I keep on the straight & narrow without a monitor/food log? Thanks to anyone still reading....
