Having difficulties starting on track. Need some tips and tricks to staying motivated. I was diagnosed about a year ago. Started like how I assume most do by going hardcore no carbs, no sugars. Since the Christmas holidays I have been backsliding to the point where I am pretty back to eating how I was before getting diagnosed and because of doctor bills I have been not taking my meds. Now I am experiencing foot pain (sharp tabby pain on the top of one my feet) I know this is not good and I need to get back to following doctor’s orders and take care of myself. Anything that would be helpful to stay on this change would be helpful

I had a Doctor's.apt. my overall sugar level is 7.1. She is great Dr she said if keep eating healthy Your HC1 will do well next time. she was happy 3 weeks my weight was 156 she is happy finally trying. she told me my weight does factor into the sugar. I have been slipping the last couple of days and not eating healthily. It's snowing in April is that crazy in PA?

where to start. I am happy mostly. But a lot has to change. I am, it seems, not satisfied unless I can eat. I am poor and on disability. I have very few outlets and spare money to not even enjoy, but now it's just to occupy my time. I like my savory foods. Lately, it has been Chinese and Reubens. It's been a scrambled egg platter with turkey bacon, home fries, and whole wheat toast buttered and decaff coffee w half and half. I am not happy without some sort of food. i have several obstacles, and it is with my housing (related to self care) and getting older, and just getting along day to day without any kind of upset from others. That is why I am settling for being ok with being alone and occupying my time with non-upsetting TV, puzzles, and food. That is my life. I am very unhappy with my weight and my current mobility, and completing tasks. I don't want to end up in an assisted living or a nursing home or worse. I have some support, but I am having to tell agencies (case workers) that things are happier than they are, or they tell me to cause a problem with the parties that are inconveniencing me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. oh my sugars have been high, and tonight it was 352. unacceptable. I will not go back on a liquid diet. And the diabetes doctor increased my slow acting insulin to 40 units m/n, and fast acting 7 units sliding scale at meals.
