    Hi, welcome :)

    I suggest you search for groups that are centered around diabetics :)

    Good luck with MFP!

    I too am a diabetic and my biggest problem right now is eating enough calories. My doctor has taken me off bread, rice, potatoes, starchy vegetables, crackers in fact anything that is high carbohydrate and I can have only 1 serving of fruit a day. I am suppose to eat 1200 calories a day before any exercise. I am usually eating 800 or 900 calories a day. If anyone has a good way to up the calories without making the sodium, carbohydrates, or fat too high please let me know. I will be happy to share anything I come up with.
