Motivation to Lose Weight
Motivation to Lose Weight
When you are diabetic you have probably read in many places and have heard from your doctor how beneficial it is for you to lose weight. But that doesn’t make it any easier to do. It is difficult to do, but everyone is right; you will reap many benefits from losing weight including managing your diabetes and blood glucose levels. If you are already motivated to lose weight and just don’t know where to begin, make an appointment with your doctor or diabetes educator. They can provide you with information on a healthy eating plan and approve the type of exercises you should begin with. Getting the okay from your doctor before starting any physical routine is a good idea so you do not over-do it at the beginning creating more harm than good. If you have tried to lose weight before and know that it is a hard road, you may find the motivation you need through a support group. Having a network to back you up when you are having a hard day or the commitment of meeting someone at the gym can get you through the rough patches ahead. As you reach certain milestones in your weight loss journey set reward points for yourself as motivation. You may decide to reward yourself when you lose 10 pounds or it might be going for a walk 5 times in one week – whatever you need help with. Your reward can be anything that will make you work harder – renting a movie, a new pair of shoes – make it special. As you continue to lose weight and become more active keep a careful eye on your blood sugars and insulin requirements. You may find that you are requiring less insulin as you drop the pounds. Keep in contact with your doctor and update him on your progress.

![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUkdiGIOBPjni3sFLYIfai-zbRaCIVq35GWSF3FE4SHpB72WYNpwIP0_lHJb11cjfr8IQ3vD7-vkdYrVBpl36wTTjGESlmmSlarnCmbS44Dmfof4n00Ga3nLkcUzseZdJnMqqXcx134FyU/s320/hbppatientfig2.gif)
High blood pressure is a concern for anyone but people with diabetics are more likely to suffer from it than others. If you are obese and diabetic, a high blood pressure can be deadly leading to a fatal heart attack. Like many health risks associated with diabetes, good control of your blood sugars, a healthy diet and physical activity can help to keep your blood pressure in check. If you are suffering from a headache, your vision is blurry and you feel light headed or dizzy you may have high blood pressure. These symptoms are not just indicative of high blood pressure though and you should seek medical attention to determine the cause. Other times there may be no symptoms at all when you have high blood pressure or it may be slightly elevated. It is smart to have your blood pressure routinely checked at your doctor’s appointments. When you are obese, the most effective way to reduce your blood pressure is to lose weight. Follow a meal plan that works for your diabetes, making sure you are consuming enough food, and can still allow you to lose weight. Other changes that you can make that will improve your blood pressure are: * An exercise routine that is followed on a regular basis * Reducing stress in your life – mediation, yoga, letting go of some responsibilities * Quit smoking * Lessen the amount of salt you use for cooking or on your food While you are making lifestyle changes to lower your blood pressure your doctor may decide to put your on medication. If you have to take blood pressure medication it does not have to be forever. You can look at it as a short-term fix while you make the changes necessary to lower your blood pressure on your own.

Good Carbohydrates and Bad Carbohydrates

Good Carbohydrates and Bad Carbohydrates
A lot of diabetic diets and diabetic meal planning center around
carbohydrate intake – the amount you can have and when you should
have them. This is because they play such a crucial role in managing
blood sugars. Too many carbohydrates or the wrong kind can cause high
blood sugars. Not enough carbohydrates can cause low blood sugars or hypoglycemia. It is recommended that carbohydrates make up about 40% of your daily
calories, but not all carbohydrates are created equal. You also need
to pay attention to fat and sugar content. Here are some carbohydrate choices that should be made frequently: * Whole grain cereals * Whole wheat breads and rolls * Brown rice * Whole wheat crackers * Raw or lightly steamed fruits and vegetables * Whole wheat pita pockets or wraps Carbohydrate choices that should be made less often: * Potato chips * White bread * White rice * Other foods that have been processed * Cookies * Easy to eat snacks Carbohydrates are an essential part of every diet but make sure you are
including the right kinds in yours. Good carbohydrates will fill you
up and not create a sudden spike in your blood sugars. Bad carbohydrates
are usually over-processed, create high blood sugars, create obesity and
are high in sodium. As carbohydrates are going to make up almost half of your daily food
choices it is important to fill you body with high-quality choices.
Choose ones that will give you energy and not cause you to gain weight.
The less processed or refined a carbohydrate is the better it is going
to be for you. Even when baking, choose unbleached whole grain flour. It doesn’t make a big difference in taste but it does in the
quality of carbohydrate it creates.
Try whole grain flour in pancakes, cookies and cakes.

Exercise and Diabetes
Exercise and Diabetes
As a diabetic, there are additional considerations and precautions that you need to
take before you begin an exercise routine. And once you have begun, you always
need to be aware of the risks involved.
It is ideal to wait before your exercise if your blood glucose level is too
low or high. You can do more damage than good if you do not. It is
especially dangerous if your blood sugar is on the low side and you begin
to exercise.
The physical exertion can cause your blood sugar to drop even further which
can become an emergency situation. As a precaution, if you are exercising
at a gym make sure the staff are aware of your condition and have emergency
instructions and numbers to call. If you walk or run on your own outside,
keep identification on you that advises you are diabetic along with contact
phone numbers, a snack, and instructions. For other tips on exercising with diabetes, you can follow the same guidelines
that make sense for everyone else. Stretch before and after exercising,
drink plenty of fluids, and don’t push yourself too hard. It is a smart idea
to check your blood sugars before and after exercising and if you are feeling
light-headed during your work-out check it then too. As feet problems are common in diabetics, wear proper footwear and socks.
If you notice any sores on your feet that are not going away on their own,
see your doctor. If they are not healing they can lead to an infection
and other related complications. Even though there are risks involved
to exercising, the benefits make it worth it.

Artificial Sweeteners for Diabetics
Artificial Sweeteners for Diabetics? The food industry has come up with a solution for people on diets or with
diabetes that have a sweet tooth. They are known as artificial sweeteners
and they are used in everything from chewing gum, coffee sweeteners, and
even baking.
There is some controversy over the use of them as some of them are totally
synthetic and others are derived from the actual sugar plant. But to a
diabetic who doesn’t want to give up on their favorite pop or chewing gum
they can be a life-saver. The four different kinds of artificial sweeteners are: saccharin, aspartame,
sucralose, acesulfame potassium. Each of these types can be found under
various product names and brands. Not all are made the same way and they
have different uses. Some you can buy in liquid or powdered form for baking
needs and others like aspartame is only found in foods that you purchase
pre-made. The use of these artificial sweeteners will not raise blood sugar and are
safe for a diabetic to use. Care and attention is still needed because
the food items you put sugar in or on most likely will have an affect on
your blood sugar. Still follow your diabetic diet but use some artificial
sweeteners to make it a little sweeter. Some diabetics may want to use honey as a substitute for sugar.
You certainly can make this substitution, however, honey is very similar
to sugar in carbohydrate content and the effects it will have on your blood
glucose level. It is best to enjoy honey in small moderations if at all. Aspartame has been linked in some medical studies with Alzheimer’s disease.
Speak toyour doctor about the benefits and risks of using any of the
artificial sweeteners if you have any concerns about the potential health
risks.
