[QUOTE="Kayla, post: 342304, member: 55997"] [color=#BF40BF]This post is really interesting! I'm currently trying to have a 'lifestyle change' rather than a 'diet' as such. I've tried all sorts of different diets such a slimfast which does not work good for people with diabetes and I actually ended up in hospital I was so ill. I've also tried slimming world and wight watchers but I'm an extremely fussy eater too. I've found that so far what has worked best for me is just eating sensibly, controlling portion size and adding in exercise (gym, swimming and aquasize) I just need to get back on track now after xmas. Before xmas I was feeling super motivated but at the moment I'm finding it really hard to motivate myself, feeling down about everything lately, when you eat healthy you feel healthy right?! That's the plan! I study counselling in college and we were discussing people being judged, I feel judged quite a lot when people find out I'm diabetic and one comment someone made was 'Well you're diabetic so you take your tablets or you die right?' That actually left me speechless.. Do people see diabetes as some horrific disease? Or is it me who is maybe a bit nieve to it? I've felt rather down since hearing that, any thoughts?[/color] [/QUOTE]
