Hi everyone,
I've just joined the forum and found the Diabetic friendly take-away chat a really big eye opener!
I've had Type 1 Diabetes since I was 11, I'm now 23 and I'm a fitness/dance instructor so I'm extremely active but I do enjoy a good take-away! I enjoy anything from a McDonalds or KFC to an Indian meal or my favourite - Nandos! I have large protions due to the amount of calories I burn (and I always have a huge appetite!) and although I don't have take-away's often I always have quite large portions of food for my evening meal. I do have small breakfasts, lunches and snacks which include fruit, veg and fish when I have time to cook it but reading your comments has made me realise maybe I should change my take-away habits...
I like to have chocolate or a milshake when I go to the cinema too as I'm sure most people will, could all of this be doing more damage than I've realised...???
Thanks in advance for any replies
