[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2178899, member: 53162"] Hello and welcome [USER=517394]@mrtn.pllr[/USER] It is a minefield when your first diagnosed as there is so much to think about that it can feel incredibly overwhelming, trying to get a grip on carb values, insulin dosing, timing, testing, injecting and all the time walking on a tightrope. Take it easy and hang on in there, it does get easier in time, try sticking to the same foods to start so you know their carb values and can get used to the insulin doses, I find when I want to snack that I eat cheese, pork scratchings, olive and nuts as I don't take insulin for them so makes life somewhat easier. There's lots of folk who understand here so feel free to vent whenever it suits, but do have faith it will be second nature in time. [/QUOTE]
