Hi thanks both.
The only thing that changed in February was stress. My mum has dementia and things got a lot worse from then on.
been there, done that.
do NOT under estimate the stress that puts upon you.
If you are the main (sometimes only) carer, that strain can and will be
intolerable,..add in the diabetes, and that stress mounts inextricably.
take stock of where you are and what YOU can do.
we all want to do it all, but lying by the roadside wrecked helps no one.
All the advice post by others above if good.
But as one who has been there..get help with mum.
and work to get help for you.
as someone once told me.
it's so easy to be someones anchor
that you forget YOU are the one drowning.
get the help YOU need ..then you can care for Mum better.
and low carb...?
LCHF..it's simple really
real food looks like real food.
No labels on the back to say whats in it.
it's meat..that looks like meat
it's vegetables ...that look like vegetables.
then YOU cook em.
if you have to read a list of ingredients on the packet..avoid for now.
get better soon..x
