Hi guys,
So I'm fairly newly diagnosed.. 27/11/17...I had my birthday a week later 04/12/17 and was so good I didn't even touch any bad food. Have been cutting carbs since and really working hard to lose weight. Then Christmas happened. I find it so much harder to stick at when my family don't understand and keep saying a little bit won't hurt...you still have to live etc. Anyway, I've eaten more carbs than I'd like to admit to and snacks that I shouldn't have. I had a hba1c of 59 when I was diagnosed and my goal is to get below 50 before my next blood test in February. Is this still doable or have I ruined myself completely? Feeling so guilty it's unreal and quite angry with myself that I didn't stick to things for Christmas as the only person I'm cheating is myself.
