[QUOTE="AM1874, post: 1564798, member: 379847"] Hi [USER=203780]@janemarie71[/USER] .. I see that you have been posting since August 2015 so I'm sure that you will already have received and read a lot of advice from folk here. However, I think it would be worth re-reading some of the most relevant material so I have tagged [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] for you again and I suggest that you focus on the valuable information that she will soon be sending you. You might also find the discussion on the [URL='http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/category/low-carb-diet-forum.18/']Low Carb Diet forum[/URL] helpful .. together with the following Diet Doctor websites, which will give you all the info that you need about carbs and about what and what not to eat ... [URL='https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb']Low Carb Intro and Information [/URL]and[URL='https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb'] [/URL][URL='https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/60-seconds']Low Carbs in 60 Seconds [/URL] I'm sure you will be aware that a key point to take on board is that managing and controlling your diabetes through exercise, diet and testing your blood sugar seems to be the best way forward for many people. For me, committing to an LCHF (Low Carb High Fat) lifestyle and testing 3-5 times a day seems to be working and you'll find that there is a wealth of info, relevant advice and positive support about LCHF on the forum. I would also add that, in my opinion, if you have not been able to accept your diabetes since you were diagnosed, there is something else going on here. As [USER=281551]@serenity648[/USER] has suggested above, you should talk to your doctor about how you feel and I think that you should also take this opportunity to ask about counselling. This final suggestion is really outside my remit but, FWIW, how about focusing on what's truly important to you. Who are the most important people in your life, for instance .. hubby, partner, significant other .. parents, brothers, sisters, children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces? How do they feel about this? How would they feel if ...? This might seem a bit hard-core, I know, but if you can't do it for yourself .. maybe you can do it for them Thinking of you .. hope this helps [/QUOTE]
