know to avoid Carbs, and all that mess, my problem is that I don't

know what food is typically high. About all I know right now is

regular sodas are a no-no and if it's white, don't eat it.

Hi,

Welcome to the group. The best way to learn what you can and cannot eat is

to eat a particular food then test two hours later to see the results.

Some people have to eat low-carb, but I can eat almost anything I want in

moderation, especially if I do a few minutes of exercise about 30 minutes after

eating. That exercise can be as little as making our bed, washing dishes,

etc.

I eat potatoes a couple times a week, I eat oatmeal several mornings a week

and never get high readings. Other people can look at these foods and almost

get high readings. LOL

You need to see a nutritionist or diabetes educator. They will help you

with a food plan. Since diabetes is different for everyone, you may have to

adjust the plan to suit you, but it will give you a starting point.

The most important thing to remember is for you to control diabetes and not

let it control you.

Happy New year

Hi , If you feel it necessary to leave, you must. But know that I

will miss you. I don't know you that well, but I would still miss you.

You are one of us, we take care of our own. Hang in , take your

antidepressant, keep in touch with us.
