Protecting my ultimate health and the fear of insulin is the two main reasons why I take my diet seriously. It saddens me knowing my friends with diabetes were once in the same place I was in April are now on insulin. Most didn't try to change their diet or lifestyle. 75% of them continue to eat bad even today and some drink alcohol. Why Why Why? Are they trying to kill themselves? Diabetes Mellitus can affect every organ, diabetes can lead to amputations and death.
Diabetes Mellitus can be managed with diet , exercise and medicine. Diabetes Mellitus can become a terminal illness if it isn't managed. Why don't they try harder. It's not that difficult to avoid sugar and things that cause spikes. I did it and my diabetes is controlled. I was very discouraged in the beginning but I got advice from.others with type 2. They helped me make better choices. We cook differently and eat differently, it's not that difficult. I mess up occassionly but that's just me. I may have lost some of my favorite foods but perhaps I added years to my life by making better choices.
