Hey Blue, welcome back. Glad to hear you're still hanging in there.
 
Hi, Blue & welcome back to the forum. What is your current strategy? I just read back over your first page. Do you see a nutritionist these days?

i am able to talk to a dietician by phone
whenever i want at least so far and
i have an appt. by phone next week
with an endo.
as im also a type 2 diabetic on insulin

my current strategy is to prevent 2 things
hypos on my insulin
and weight gain

im doing this by
eating less (1 can of food per day)
this in turn uses less insulin
which means 0 hypos
so far

as for weight loss
i have yet to find the key for that
but at least i can strive to not
gain more

yes
im looking into having some of those vitamin drinks
like glucerna
to relieve some of the mouth pain
or at least not make it worse

but the 1 can is for many other reasons too
 
im not sure what my goals are now
or what i'd like to post
likely not weight losses lol
as i still find nothing moves my
weight in a positive direction yet
i refuse to work out obsessively
just to reach a temporary goal
luckily i cant
so all i can do is food restrictions
luckily i can
and mostly have to
for reasons ive likely already
said on here
but the biggest one being weigh gain prevention
because once its on
its on
not coming off
thankyou for the support
 
today on tuesday
i get a different meal

i get to eat my WORDS
the scales gone in a positive direction
finally

what spices shall i put on them?
:)
 
The same happened to me. I had just said to Marsia that the scales won't budge & then whoosh! Yay for scales dropping!
 
today saturday
in addition to my 1 can of food
i had 6 scrambled outdated
(last month) eggs
they dont seem to be bothering me
and at least they are finished off
 
discouraged today
going food shopping
its discouraging to
see the foods that i know
help my blood sugar
levels but i cant afford them
since covid price hikes
sometimes it would seem
easier to say to heck with it
i cant get what i need to
be healthier so why try
when i try and fail
its worse and if i didnt
try at least theres no discouragement
its really depressing to try hard
and get no where
knowing what i need
but its not reachable
 
i discovered several food intolerances which also makes shopping
difficult as some of the things my body tolerates is way more
than i can afford
but since this seems to be a thing
with no end
i just do what i can and try to take some vitamins
the discouragement gives me bad food thoughts tho

I am right there with you when it comes to the difficulties of shopping with allergies.
