i am in a wheelchair and could not walk. that is why it is hard for me to exercise everyone tells me to walk that is like telling the blind to see or the deaf to hear i went to physical therapy and i am slowly improving

Answer 1

Sounds like you don't want to do anything. You seem to be rejecting common sense and trying to rationalize your way out of helping yourself get better. So if you don't care about your health, why should anyone else? Stay the way you are, let your diabetes cause hypertension and then lead to kidney disease and ultimately failure. Have a stroke that incapacitates you and end up in a skilled nursing facility half paralyzed and on dialysis for the rest of your short life if you want.
Sorry, it may sound harsh but you can't help someone that does not wan to help themselves. Talk to your doctor and see a dietician. Get your weight under control and move a little more each day than you did the day before, that’s called exercising; we’re not talking running a marathon here. To say you can’t exercise is moronic. Walk up the stairs instead of using an escalator; take a walk around the block, and next week try 2 blocks. Go to the mall and window shop. Just move and stop making excuses, I’m telling you this here because the last person you want to see in real life is me.

Here is a five minute documentary about a group of people with diabetes that changed their diet for 30 days and are NO longer diabetic. They're also making a longer documentary with Woody Harrelson, which should be out very soon. The good news is that this type of diet prevents and reverses almost every disease known to man. So watch this video and tell everyone you know about it, so we can put an end to all of this needless suffering!!!

Go to Weight Watchers.com...they can help you start eating the right amount of calories. You will start losing weight and start feeling more energy at which time you can start to exercise. Start out simple, by just going for a walk. It really works and is very easy to do. You can eat the same normal foods that you eat, but you have to keep track of your caloric intake. You can do it. I did it because I was having symptoms of pre-diabetes. I lost 35 pounds and the weird feelings went away. Good luck to you!

Answer 7

I am mild diabetic. You need to lose weight & control your sugar before you lose your sight, your kidneys, or a leg! Start by getting a good diet book--I use the Dr's pocket guide calorie, fat & carb counter.I got mine on Amazon. Then stick to a 1400 calorie a day diet, with no more than 150 gms of carbs. Keep a food diary, too. Good luck!!

Answer 8

1st get to the doctor like some others said. I cook for 2 diabetics. there is a diet they follow. But they also eat in moderation when they want sweets they just have a SMALL piece and not everyday

Answer 9

Go to your doctor and have them help you with a diet plan. My father was diagnosed with diabetes, and after 6 months of eating right, he went back to the doctor and had no more symptoms. He cut excessive sugar, and believe it or not, most dairy out of his diet.

Good Luck!
