HI
I've been diabetic now coming up to 10 years, and as long as i can remember i've never had an Hb1C under 10! I always seem to have an excuse for my high blood levels, like, 'because its winter and I never really get the chance to go out' or when its the summer its 'I have loads of work to get done for going back to uni'.
When I was still at school I was still active but I soon started to binge eat on snack size chocolate bars (its the only treats we were allowed in our house) and although now things are sorted in the 'binge eating' area my appetite has never gone back to normal.
Now that i'm coming to the end of my 2nd year at uni and in my tenth year of being diabetic its about time i did something about it, the only problem is i only have the motivation a week before a clinic appointment and a few days after my blood testing sharply stops and i just give myself shots of nova rapid (i'm on basal/bolus with nova rapid and glargine) when i feel high.
I'm getting really fed up and I always feel really dissappointed with myself for not respecting my body and treating it how I should.
Has anyone else felt in this sort of rut, and how did you get yourself out of it.
