Just that really…
Went to the doctors just before Christmas for an unrelated issue and got diagnosed with diabetes with hba1c level of 75 I’ve had gestational diabetes in 2 out of 3 pregnancies, one was diet controlled and the last I was on insulin injections but this was 4 years ago.
I am overweight and had no real restriction on my diet either but I’ve been feeling very down and stressed out about it all. It’s been almost a month and I’ve cut out junk food completely and started a low carb high protein diet this week. I will weigh myself next week to get an update on that front.
I guess I’m just looking for some advice from people who have gotten type 2 at such a young age and how you managed to turn it around? It just seems so overwhelming
Thank you!
