Fed up with all this now I do know that I am not as bad as some of you
And should not complain ,I have been at this now for 10 years and going nowhere
As for the eating I now eat lots of salads nuts meat but still nothing going right.
...sorry to hear that you're feeling down Happygirl, sometimes it feels like we're fighting a brick wall doesn't it.... I was diagnosed 15 years ago and religiously followed what I was told, ie plenty of carbs....I've learnt since then and finding this place is a godsend.
...as Bluetit said, let us know what you're eating, a typical day..
What are your readings like with those foods? I know there is no way I could eat any cereal, and can only manage one slice of bread so sandwiches are difficult!
Do you self test? What was your last HbA1c test result?
If I were you I would cut out the cereal and sandwiches as cereals and bread are very high in carbs, and as we diabetics know Carbs are sugar.
