I love Italian foods. Instead of giving up on eating them, I just switched the pasta I use. I use whole grain wheats instead. The flavor changes, but I do what I have too to survive.
My diet has changed a great deal. I eat fruit and veggies every single day. I exercise by walking. I lift weights, and swim.
I am drinking coffee maybe 2x a day. Once in the morning and once after dinner. That is it.
Unfortunately I too have a very long family history of diabetes. It sucks. I miss eating like I used too. I miss the white pasta. Having a taco salad and eating the shell. Just the simple things like that. I just make changes to survive.
