Hi
Please be kind about this one. I'm not even sure if I'm looking for advice or tips or just needing to vent.
I've been diagnosed T2 for three weeks. I was doing really well with readings around 8.4 on average but today I binged on foods I shouldn't have had from a baguette to chocolate cookies and now I feel terrible both mentally and physically.
My BG is spiking at 23, higher than when I was diagnosed, I have an awful headache, I feel exhausted and lethargic and I've been thirsty all night and it is all down to the fact of being fed up and wanting a treat, a treat I took too far.
Tomorrow i plan on doing a lot of exercise and getting my BG down again and under control.
I think this binge has taught me a lot about my limits and what I can and cant do and it's made me realise that I need to take this a lot more seriously. Until now I dont think I realised what impact and how important what I put into my body meant. When I was first diagnosed I was determined to get it right and today it just slipped out of control and I'm so angry with myself.
I'd anything I would like to ask about your tips on avoiding any binges and how you curb your cravings?
Thank you
