When you're being health conscious

I chose two healthier options today, Two! I had a Dunkin egg and cheese on English muffin instead of croissant for lunch. And at dinner I really wanted breaded chicken in my sandwich, but ordered grilled! So I was feeling all good about myself until I realize halfway through my chicken sandwich, that the lemon poppy mayo (sooo good) probably has 20 grams fat!!! Ugh can't win for losing 😩

@Justmeraeagain Oh it's true, many doctors are just not helpful and even incompetent. And others who don't know diabetes just think it's just what youeat.no it's not. It's stress, even hot water shower can raise her sugar. Otherssaidit too. Even PEANUT has raised some people sugar. It's really odd. So it's such an insidious disease because it often is not consistent.
And my sisters doctors have been so rude or even just say, Find a study, when they didn't know why her case is so fragile. How do WE just get in a study?? You need referral. They just put everything on you. Another doctor said , about her undiagnosed pain disorder in legs, so what do you want to take? It's like, we don't know what to take!! YOU are the doctor!!! 🫨

@Baybreeze they don't listen .I am one of the people that cannot take glps, so ,what does my diabetic doctor ask me every time I have an appointment with her are you sure you don't want to try a glp, again?
She also keeps accusing me like I said above of eating sugar at night or high carbs because of my high sugar numbers in the morning she doesn't even discuss dawn phenomenon with me -I found that out on my own

@Justmeraeagain Wow it's like their heads are trapped in a box of black and white thinking. They rarely think out of the box and really SEE the big picture that our bodies are not just numbers. That if it's this high , your sugar, they think you must have done this or that. No it's a myriad of things when it comes to the body. Now I know why so many say they don't even go or want to go to doctors anymore 😟
