There is a causal relationship between excess weight and type 2 diabetes. Dishes and proportions for good food management.

A moderate weight decrease (from 4.5 to 9 kilos) and in the long term improves glycemia.

If you have excess weight or you are obese, the purpose of this note is to help you interest your health.You might be comfortable with your state, that quick and industrialized meals dominate you and have no intention of modifying your eating habits and the sedentary lifestyle.However, these pathologies can slowly lead to others, one of them is type 2 diabetes.

Other diseases that have close connection with obesity and excess weight are arterial hypertension, heart disease, strokes, cholesterol and high triglycerides, gout, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea (complete cessation of the signalrespiratory at least 10 seconds), infertility, bile calculations, liver damage, depression (in addition to other psychic disorders), some types of cancers (uterus, breast and colon) and metabolic syndrome.

The latter refers to the existence of 3 or more diseases or paintings such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, arterial hypertension, high cholesterol and triglyceric, HDL cholesterol (good) low, excess fat around the waist (greater than 100 cm).

It has been proven through studies that a moderate weight decrease (from 4.5 to 9 kilos) and long -term improves blood glucose.Therefore, good metabolic control can be achieved with decreased body weight.

The treatment of type 2 diabetes is based on two fundamental pillars: food and physical activity, and in some cases pharmacological treatment is required.

The aforementioned illustrates the importance that the chemical composition of food has for the diabetic with the objective of avoiding the aforementioned complications and maintaining their glycemia under control.

If your doctor diagnosed you diabetes it will be because two of the blood results of blood glucose (blood sugar) were equal to or greater than 126 mg/dl on an empty stomach.

The professional will let you know what complications you could have if you do not control your blood glycemia levels.

Maybe I will mediate you, but the fundamental thing is that you begin to change your thoughts and modify customs that you are adapted and not to get out of that circle.I am referring to the elections in meals, drinks and in the physical inactivity that accompany you, that give you pleasure and that take your health.What will you have to do?Continue with medical controls and attend a nutritionist, who will help you modify eating habits, lifestyle and motivate you to make a beneficial result for you.

If you still do not decide to go to a professional to help you achieve it, it will be necessary to keep in mind that you should lose weight, control your diet and stop being sedentary.

The food plan should be adequate to all your characteristics, whether or not you have medication, if you also have other diseases and/or symptoms.

@Mariafont Having or going hungry has nothing to do with diabetes, not directly once detected and treated.
I don't know what chronic colitis is, so I can only assume that the prohibition of comprehensive food has to do with that.
It is as if someone is celiac and has diabetes, they are forbidden to eat gluten foods, but it is not because it is related to diabetes, it is because of the intolerance it has to those foods.

Gema ter, thanks for your answer.I blame your hunger that has the uncontrolled sugar with high values ​​but I am inventing it ... but, when you take white bread and cereals, they do more peaks, right?And that harms him.Is there any bread that you know, white, what better for diabetics?Also blackered the hunger to which it is depressed and a lot of time at home ... boredom, anxiety ...

He says that pumpkin is avoided?Well, it is the basis of many of my dishes.

I continue on my climbing weight and high glycemia for my lack of self -control, so I have decided to have the right thing at home to eat and return for a season that when I ate outside the house I took chicken and salad fillet, soI will make it exactly the same a temportadita and forcing myself to go to walk even if it is cold, to see if I moderate the glucose values ​​and incidentally I lose something of the weight I have taken.

I have gone not to leave because it was very hot not to go out cold.I really don't adapt to moved :(

How many legumes do you eat a week?I have been a season that I have reduced the amount of meat and fish because I don't feel much and take more legumes, at least 3 times per week I usually take.The rest of the pure time or broths, plus a second plate of vegetables with something else, once directly passed to the second, without taking first, but I always feel like something hot.

I do go hungry, I'm hungry at all hours, I filled and after a while I could eat again.Last year when they detected it I was hungry and even cried with impotence, now that I do not control the amounts so much and I have put more things that I do not owe as bread in the meals and caprices because I have taken to weight, because I already say thatI have no measure to cut and stop eating.I go to a wedding and before I could not with all the dishes and now practically devour ... and so with everything.I believe that putting things that do glucose peaks do that when the downturn is fast, you really want to eat more, it is horrible.In the end last year when I got used to my glucose, I ate my food and I was satiated, now I usually take both dishes, I take a yogurt or whatever and always peak with things that I should not and more in winter,In plan, even if it is without added sugar but how good it is not or chocolate with Stevia, which is more of the same, so although hunger it seems to me that what touches a little, in my case, is "fuck me" andGo through that stage until you get the glucose levels regular again, because if it is an absolute lack of control
