Sounds like you need to concentrate on getting your blood sugars down and having some success with weight loss. Once you get some successes there you may find that your views on what you want to eat change a bit.
Do you think you can avoid bread, pasta, and fruit for one month? 30 days isn't a long time so why not try that?
Meat, fish, eggs, green veg, cheese, cream and a few berries (50g say) maybe for a treat.
After 30 days you might find your tastes have changed and if, like many, the pounds have started to fall off then you might find you want to carry on.
Since being diagnosed a month ago I’ve lost a stone which I’m so happy about, I do slimming workd which helps a lot with motivation to lose weight....I literally eat pasta, rice and potatoes maybe once a week so not a lot at all, most of the fruits I eat are berries, clementine and apples, again I maybe have 2-3 portions of fruit....and I eat lots of veggies and fish (don’t eat meat) ....
I haven’t yet lost 10% of my body weight I have another half a stone to lose, and my blood sugar levels have come down quite abit.
I think I’m just scared of everything (sorry if that sounds silly) I had no symptoms of being diabetic at all, and I don’t want to get heart promblens or other health complications, so getting into remission is so important for me, I certainly wouldn’t give up.
My dad is t2, and he ate junk food for years, ate the hugest portions, chips nearly everyday and now he’s messed his pancreas that much he is on insulin, I don’t want that at all!, I know what to do is to eat a balanced diet of healthy carbs, fats, protein, but at the same time I don’t want to give up the foods I like occasionally like having pizza with my friends which we do once every 2 months
I’ve already made a lot of healthier choices like if I really want pasta I do half a cup of wholewheat with half a cup of courgetti spaghetti, I do the same with brown rice - mix cauliflower with it....I’ve used bean pasta which has so much more protein and fibre in - and my blood sugar levels are fine.
