Controlling Sugars

Type 1 Diabetes.
Hi, My names Harry,
I have had Type 1 Diabetes now for about 5 years September just passed,I smoke and i drink i find it very hard to control my Diabetes and my blood sugars most of the time i always can't seem to be bothered to do my blood sugar or actually try the only reason my blood sugar is okay is because i have my amazing mom that count's my carbohydrates in my food and i put them into my machine ( Only when i can be bothered) Im just wondering about what better things could i do or what could i eat that would make me loose weight but have a stable Diabetic Level, Would be good if someone helped me out, Im new to this site! Thanks!

Harry

Hi,
Thanks for the advice yeah i am trying to stop smoking recently and i haven't drank that much alcohol, It just used to be something i would do near enough every weekend but i have tryed to avoid party's where i would be drinking alot of alcohol and smoking alot.

Also thanks for posting a reply about that too i will look that up! I also really find it hard to switch where i inject because i am kind of muscley and the doctor said i can't inject anywhere except my legs and my stumoch and my hips (love handles) as the doctor would say haha, but can i inject anywhere else i am trying very hard to control my Diabetes and will update in the future of how i am getting on!
