Diabeties and Food

Dying_Angel · 05-04-2021, 07:50 PM

I used to eat alot and have high blood sugers

I've now got it in my head that I can't eat very much. If sugar levels are low I have the smallest thing I can get away with.

I'm worried this is gonna turn into something more serious but the thought of eating makes me feel sick.

Hey, I'm also diabetic and know how sometimes everything seems to focus around food...

The trouble is if you're not eating very much you might be more likely to end up going low more often... and then have to eat more often to correct that.

I don't want to be a bore and remind you on the dangers of low blood sugars (especially if you drive) and eating properly because I'm sure you know that. Do you have a diabetic nurse/ dietician you could talk to?

Thanks for replying

I am worried I'm gonna have to. Eat more to correct sugar levels.

I don't currently drive but I know it can be dangerous especially with low levels.

I don't have a diabetic nurse or anyone who I can talk to.

I advise you to find a nutritionist who can tell you about nutrition and how to live with diabetes. Of course, you can say that you understand what we are eating for. But the nutritionist will tell you about some of the substances contained in foods and how these substances affect the body. The nutritionist will also advise you on diet options. Believe me, when you diversify your diet, it will be more pleasant for you to eat.
