So yesterday (Friday) was my first "Diabetic" Dr. visit. I have Type 2 Diabetes. Here's what I got out of my visit. Basically insulin comes from pancreas, we get glucose (sugar) from the food we eat (carbs) and between the two mine isn't working right. Glucose for us is like gas to a car. You gotta have it. So I do need to eat some carbs. Somebody who doesn't have Diabetes can pretty much eat a whole cheesecake and your glucose levels will stay normal around 70-100. Well mine would probably be 200. So no cheesecake for me. Maybe just a nibble!!! : )
I go to a Dietician next week and I'm pretty sure cheesecake isn't on the "can eat alot of" list. So I will be doing alot of research to find things I can eat. Because yes my friends...I ENJOY FOOD!!
PS - Lost 11lbs.
