Hi,
I am struggling to control my diabetes because I find it such a hassle. Looking back I can see I have been overeating for years and it is a very hard habit to break. Now I have put on a lot of weight and I feel dreadful most of the time so I have to do something
Yesterday and today I have taken my blood sugar tests first thing in the morning before I have eaten anything. On both occasions they were too high. My question is this, if they are too high in the morning should I still eat? If so, what should I eat? :?: :?: :?:
I think one of the problems I have is that I don't know how much I should eat. If someone could give me a diet plan for a week, I would know what to do but the dieticians say I need to work it out for myself. If I was any good at that I probably wouldn't be diabetic! I always joke and say I'm semi-bulimic in that I binge but I don't bring it back up. Everybody laughs but it isn't really funny because I know I'm killing myself but I just don't know how to stop it.
