Hmmm Diabetes not great, I have been a type 1 diabetes since i was 12, however it wasnt to bad for me as my brother is a Type 1 Diabetic too he was diagnosed when he was 2, and is 3 years older than me. Whilst growing up mum treated me the same with all the sugar free stuff so hence it wasnt to bad for me, however I was your average teenager and liked the odd chocy bar etc so was harder in my later teens. But diabetes is not what it use to be. You can eat anything you want but you need to manage it, I have been injecting since i was diagnosed and remember one nurse sayng to me its like cleaning your teeth...... its something i have to do every day for the rest of my life and to be honest if i want to continue to live each day then I need my insulin!!
My dad is a Type 2 Diabetic due to being over weight and he has tablets every day but adventually like most type 2 he will most probably end up on insulin injections.
I can give you an incentive hun..... please please try and loose the weight as I wouldnt wish it upon anyone to have diabetes. When I see you on sunday I will tell you al about my experiences and the experiences my brother has just suffered recently due to him not looking after himself and being 38 and was close to dying 2 weeks ago.....
I joined slimming world and believe me the diet does work and you never go hungry!! I have attached a link for you where you can find your local group. The main thing is when loosing weight is that you want to loose weight, This diet does work. I have been there for 5 weeks and I have lost 1 stone and 5lb so far i am well pleased and guess what I am never hungry. Give it a try its well worth it.
