The diabetes clinic in Kettering and Corby seem to have wiped their hands off me, I have not had any updates since we had argued about carbs, even my new GP says I must eat carbs, so they are all trying to kill me, I am really quite ill and feel dreadful after listening to their advice- toast or porridge in the morning as that shall give me enough energy to enjoy my life to the fullest!! -by the way, they say i'm not allowed cheese :|
I just had some new test strips arrive and my glucose levels are through the roof.. I dare not even contemplate what my Hba1c would be
how dreadful.
so sorry to hear this once again.
when the people we trust consider their display of 'Knowledge' from years ago to be more important
than the visible ailing health of their patients.
Not knowing your full background re meds etc, would it be possible for you to try greek yogurt and some berries for breakfast instead of the porridge or toast...?
I used to see the foods i ate as pleasant and rewarding tastes, rather then as FUEL to get to me to the next meal in my day.
now i have that mentality, the foods and food choices i make take on a new quality.
where i might still enjoy the thought of toast (didn't do porridge, but a bowl of flakes..Nom Nom, Nom )
i know both hit me with a spike, BUT i also know the yoghurt can power me up and get me to the next break for food rather handsomely.
So i choose yoghurt.
maybe you could adapt one or two things until you see how they work for you. ?
