Have you tried to talk about your feelings with your family?

Self-discipline and self-control is significant for diabetics when it comes to how well the person control his/her BSL especially those who do it naturally with diet and exercise. You need to be strong and eat the right foods that will not spike your BS too much. Remember whenever we suffer from any complications due to hyperglycemia, we will definitely suffer alone. Our family and friends who are not diabetic will not share all sort of complications and illnesses. Eating the right food for diabetics is not that easy as this requires some changes and restrictions but somehow it is essential. Good luck.

MY EXPERIENCE. I AM 73 YEARS. MY WEIGHT ROSE FROM 65 kgs TO 70 KGS WITHIN 12 MONTHS.I AM A DIABETIC FOR 20+ YEARS. MY H1B USED TO BE AROUND 6.5 . SEEING 70 kgs weight I INCREASED MY WALKING TIME FROM AN HOUR TO ONE AND HALF IN THE MORNING AND STARTED EVENING WALKING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR .NOW MY WEIGHT IS LOWERED TO 65 kgs IN 60 DAYS TIME.

Your diet should have 30% calories less than required. Maintain ketogenic ratio 4:1. Also plot the macros intake on a chart. Only then you will be able to know how much macros you are taking.

Good luck.

You should do what is right for you. I am sure people around you will cooperate with you without them having the same dietary requirements. Follow a low carb healthy fat diet which will help you lose weight and give minimum rise in blood sugar.

It is the desire and determination which keep a diabetic to maintain a good sugar level.Follow a ketogenic diet and convince others that you are doing to reduce fat.Thanks
