2. Diabetes Diets Are Extremely Limiting

One of the most overwhelming things about being diagnosed by diabetes is thinking about what you can and cannot eat anymore. But fear not, you can still enjoy most, if not all, of your favorite foods. You’ll just have to be a bit more careful about portion control, managing your meals, and taking your medication religiously. Other things you will need to consider are things like always having a snack on hand in case your blood sugar levels drop and carrying your medication with you at all times.
