    Diabetes Struggle Is Real

    I used to feel constant hunger as well, sometimes insatiable hunger. That didn't change until I eliminated sugar, bread, pasta and rice. Instead of sandwich I'll have a low carb wrap, fill it up with lean protein and salad, make it tasty, add some grated cheese, avocado, mayo or sugar-free sweet...

    Type 2 Taking food to an event

    A note from your doctor to explain how a diabetic may need a snack or small meal to prevent hypo attack. Surely they will make an exception for that.

    Sick of Counting! Grrrrr

    Yes I'm sick of it. I totally hear you. I know and understand your frustration. I still have the occasional tantrum! I'm from NZ too. This is our new normal. Don't give up. We have to beat this thing! We have to stop it from getting worse. It took my brother's quality of life & then it killed...

    Newly diagnosed pre diabetic- tips please?

    @smc85 I am so scared of eggs and how they the medical profession have convinced me it is dangerous to my health if I eat too much saturated fat and eggs everyday + then when I Google it or see the opinions such as yourself saying eggs are okay, who am I meant to believe? I am prediabetic with...

    Low carb diet

    I just had weight watchers jelly with cream, no sugar + zero carbs + BSL tested all good BUT I question the artificial sweetener they use so treats are very occasional. I also want to give away sugar completely but baby steps. Still I enjoyed it + it fixed my sweet tooth for now. I am also...

    Mildly Annoying Moments as a Diabetic

    I think from now on I'll never mention to others that I am prediabetic, as their response to this is "oh so you're not a REAL diabetic then" I guess this is true to a certain degree but I treat it as a warning + have decided to change my lifestyle to hopefully prevent T2. My mum + brother...

    Low Carb flu

    Not feeling the best today. How long before these symptoms go away? I feel like a drug addict going through withdrawal. Not hungry though [emoji4] so that's a good thing + also the fact I've lost 1 kilo in two days

    Keeping track of discussions

    Hi I'm new in here + can't keep track of who I've spoken to in here and then randomly see someone has left me a comment, therefore I might have missed other comments + don't want others to think I'm a rude snob! Clicked on subscribed but that didn't seem to help. What am I doing wrong?

    Does low carb make you low mood

    I prefer to call it venting lol + definitely grateful for my healthier life :) Another thing I miss is porridge with cream + brown sugar but I sure don't miss feeling extremely tired after such a breakfast + struggling to keep my eyes open at work

    Scared & Confused

    Was confusing for me too at 1st. Thats why I log my meals into fat secret (not a very nice name I know but it's a good app), it counts my carbs for me + I try not to go over my own personal limit. I also eat to my meter. Just start off simple, perhaps veg omelette for breakfast + add cheese...
