Diabetic Diet Resource Page

I loved all kinds of foods that were on the "DO NOT EAT" list my doctor handed me. I cried as I read through the list of no-no's. (Believe me, I've since learned how food should not have been the only thing I was worried about, but at that moment-and for many months after I was first diagnosed-all I could think about was all the food that I could not eat.)

So, I went home and I started living with diabetes...

And, you'll never guess what I did in the meantime…I was so upset about the illness and about all the foods that I couldn't eat that I ate and ate all the foods I could eat…and a ton of it! (And, if you ask my husband, he'd probably say 2 tons of it!)

Before I knew it, I not only had diabetes, but I was overweight, out of shape, and…still upset about the foods I couldn't eat.
