Answers:
Forever, and ever, you never will part!.!.!.!.Type 2 diabetes is when the cells in your body become less sensitive to insulin, and that does not reverse!. Beware, if the diabetes is not well controlled, your hubby will end up on insulin (shots) forever!. Diabetes is very rough on your body!. It can mess up you heart, nerves, eyes, and kidneys!. Also, in the medical world, having diabetes is considered as bad on your heart as already having had a heart attack, so he really needs to stop smoking!. Smoking causes all kinds of bad stuff and is a leading factor in heart disease (which is already the #1 killer of us chubby Americans)!. As far as losing the weight!.!.!. how about exercising in the morning before work!? Personally, I'm a night-time exerciser, but I've heard when you excercise in the morning it gives you more energy!. Or take a walk on lunch break before he's exhausted!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
There are a few things!! Diabetics are better off having 6 small meals a day rather than 3 large meals!. Type 2 diabetes isnt so much cured as it is managed!. He will always have to watch is weight and what he eats, but it might get to a point where the DM does not impact on his lifestyle!. Otherwise it could go the other way and be poorly controlled!. Not a nice thing to have but its really important that he keep it under control as the effects of diabetes that is poorly managed are not desirable at all!Www@Answer-Health@Com
He is too tired because his BS numbers are too high! At least when my hubby was diagnosed and started to get those numbers down, he was not dead on his feet anymore like he was!.
He should be eating a low carb diet, and instead of 3 meals a day, break it up into 5 meals with small snacks (no more than 15gm carbs per snack) in between!.
Yes he should quit smoking, but dont fret the beers!. We just returned from a 5 day concert bash with all the free beer we could drink and my hubby certainly had his fair share, but his morning fasting numbers stayed the same at around 116 average for the entire trip!. He just made sure to add in a water in between the beers and some protein to go with it and he was fine!.
Start with a family walk after dinner everynight and see how much that helps!.
Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
