Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="PenguinMum" data-source="post: 2031569" data-attributes="member: 461597"><p>It takes some time to get used to NOT eating all the things we considered staples before we had Diabetes.  I am convinced you would feel better if your numbers were better.  It is wonderful you are testing your levels because that is half of the answer.  I gave up potatoes, bread, rice, pasta and pizza completely.  For me the hardest thing was not having tea and toast for breakfast.  I cannot eat protein first thing.  When I eventually got the other food sorted ie. what affected my levels etc. I discovered I could factor in one slice of HiLo toast with thick butter in the morning and that puts a smile on my face. Maybe for you drop one starch at a time starting with the ones you eat most of.  I think you are a young person so with a bit of work at your own pace you can conquer this and enjoy life.  Come back here anytime for help.  Best wishes.</p></blockquote><p></p>
