Sadly Diabetes does not take a vacation. But a little cheat now and than helps keep me mentally able to take on this disease head on!
A fresh fruit salad WITHOUT GRAPES RAISINS SULTANAS LYCHEES and with CHOPPED WALNUTS but GOOGLE "SAFE FRUIT FOR DIABETICS" first and NO MACADAMIA NUTS (way too high in fats).or a RICE PUDDING with a sweetener like XYLITOL and a sprinkle of ground nutmeg and baked in an oven ENJOY!
Marg that is so true. If we try to be perfect we do feel stressed. I took a clutter class once. The teacher told us to do the best we can with most of the home but leave one area cluttered. This releives the burden of needing to be perfect. Same with food. Every once in a while have that small bag of potato chips, savor it and then get right back on the horse. This is if you can. Some people can't. But we do our best.
Enjoy
