Beat the Beetus

Name is Shelby. I am a type 1 diabetic. I have this blog to share my life as a diabetic. Help those that I can. Of any type.Though I will be able to relate to type 1 a lot more. I won't pretend to know something medically if I don't. I won't give straight out medical advice (very limited exceptions) because all of us our different with our bodies. I don't want to risk your life because something works for me. I will ask for advice and give advice. Gain support and give support. It's always nice to have people who can relate to you. <3 Feel free to ask me anything, suggest food and things that help motivate you to take better care of yourself.

I love you all! =D

I became a vegetarian a few months before I was diagnosed with diabetes, for a long time I did not get enough protein in my diet. For more cholesterol-friendly alternatives, there are plenty of tasty veggie burgers, soy-ground beef, soy chicken, and vegetarian sandwich meat available. Bean burritos, bean dip, beans & rice. Lots of Chinese restaurants will substitute tofu for meat upon request. I'd even recommend switching to soy or almond milk (almond takes a little getting used to).

Thank you for your reply! =D I am iffy about trying tofu things but I am going to try it. I love bean burritos so that is good to know. I never thought to look at the facts for almond milk figured it’d be the same. Thanks hope that you  are  doing great =D
