      @batgirl79 ya, soda is a huge one to cut out. If you aren't sensitive to the fake sugars I would suggest diet drinks. Not diet soda though. I know that they are not necessarily great for you, but you get your water in and nothing to effect your sugars.

      Are you newly diagnosed with diabetes or farther along on your journey?

        @mydragonmoon farther along in my journey. I just had an EKG for a pre op appointment and there were a few tiny blips that concerned the Dr and it scared me enough to start eating better. I have been eating salads and chicken. I am also trying to stop drinking soda. Have been doing ok for just starting.
