Weight Gain!!

Hi All,

I was diagnosed when i was 12 with type 1 diabetes and i am now 21. Over the years i have seen my weight slowly creep up but always kept my eye on it.
I am now the heaviest i have ever weighed, weighing about 13 and a half stone and around 5"7 tall!
I have such a sweet tooth which is terrible being a diabetic!
I have tried joining gyms but whenever i do exercise i end up having hypo's
I am an extremely fussy eater too so healthy eating and finding new things i enjoy is a real struggle!

Any advice on how to monitor my weight management better or learn to like a broader variety of food! This would be great help, thank you in advance!

You might try adding a teaspoon or two of new foods to your ordinary meals and gradually increase the foods you eat. I wouldn't try more that a couple of foods at a time this way and give it a week of adding them before adding another. Best of luck @abbdrinkwater
