You dont want to deal with the issues of a T-2 and become insulin resistent like some T-1’s. Then its onto Metformin. Dont become a double diabetic. If you are a constant snacker this can be a problem and you may need some help with Symlin or other medication.
Would urge you to read the “The Diabetic Solution” by Dr Richard Bernstein and join our group here on TU.
Give it a good go of it for two months. I think you will see a huge differnce eating the Dr B way and you will get the control you are seeking.
