How do you all cope with this? I'm not even two weeks into being a diabetic & I have had enough already, I fell off the bandwagon big time tonight after dinner I tucked into peanut brittle & Lindt choc balls, I feel so sick now & just spent nearly an hour in the bathroom balling my eyes out, I didn't want my husband to see me crying, don't get me wrong he has been very supportive I just didn't need anyone telling me it was all going to be alright type of thing,
I have read constantly about diabetes for 11days, countless books have been purchased & are lined up next to my beloved cookery & baking books, I try looking at low carb recipes but end up feeling angry & upset at what I can't eat, my husband & I are big foodies, not in the sense of eating lots but its a big part of our life & at the moment it feels like my whole life has been taken away & I am greiving for it, I keep thinking it could be worse I could have some terminal illness & I should be grateful its not that bad but its not working & I really don''t know how to deal with it
Off to bed now, hopefully I will feel better tomorrow
