I hope you are able to get your blood sugar under control I sure understand from others how difficult it is even when trying to eat right.
Yes, I keep hearing more and more of the terrible things it can do. Blindness, amputations are some more things I don't want to get. My blood sugar was better today but it should be lower. It was low enough for where they want me at now but then I will have to go lower. For me it's hard to get used to eating salad type/veggies more. Maybe if I put lemon on them it will taste better. Had a yummy dinner tonight of pierogis--could have 3 of them. Had a sauce over them that was good. I still want to eat more and I've had enough for the day. I might be able to have a small snack of fruit later. Thank you for your post. Yesterday I was just a mess, feel like that a lot lately. Best to you.
