You need to go to your own doct...Sheri's right. You need to go to your own doctor as they'll know what will work with your medical history, a friend's dr will not. You may also look into getting a notebook and doing a food diary for a week or two. Write down everything you eat and drink as well as how big your serving size was. After a week or two, review it. Sometimes it's not how often you eat or the meal size, but what you choose. Sodas and fruit juices are loaded with sugars and you could be drinking most of your calories. Add fruit (frozen or fresh) to your diet as well as more veggies. Also keep an eye on the dietary fiber content of some of your foods. Some things just need simple adjustments. Like tacos? Use the fat free refrieds and the carb smart Mission brand flour torts. Love pasta? Start replacing the regular white pastas with either wheat OR better yet, use the Smart Taste brand (personally this brand tastes better than the wheat ones!). If you need more ideas, drop me a line and we'll talk about it. The weight I lost? No surgery, no pills. Just good food and exercise (the later is something you're doing already).LadyStyxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17020724106526697135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2694698090097158424.post-77776884342706877742010-03-11T15:27:41.201-05:002010-03-11T15:27:41.201-05:00Yeah, you have to be really careful about buying s...Yeah, you have to be really careful about buying stuff online.

If you did... call your CC and make sure you explain what happened and you do not want them to okay any payment from them. If they do you should be okay anyways and just have them refund you. <br /><br />As far as diet stuff goes, I struggle with it all too. I don't have diabetes, but my dad does. I do know that you really need to see your doctor though if you want to take pills, don't worry about a friend's doctor - just go to yours. They know all of your history and will help you too.
