Hello everyone,I don't think this is going to go down well here but I have to be honest. I have had type 2 diabetes for 4--5 yrs now and have never taken it seriously, I have a huge Addiction to sugar that I feel totally powerless over. I take metformin 500mg twice a day but apart from that I am basically in denial. my diet is rubbish and to be honest i dont even know what is good for me to eat. this is the last place i want to be saying this to people who probably struggle daily with this illness but i know i need to get real and i just dont know how to do it. i dont know what my Hba1c is but i will find out on wed when i go for my annual check. i know everytime i eat sugary things im just killing myself slowly but i cant seem to stop, i really need help. i thought for a long time i could eat all the sweet things and the tablets would take care of it but thats not the way they work apparently. i would really appreciate any advice,replies or reprimands. thank you in advance.
