I know in my heart its going to be all right, but right now I'm just trying not to freak out. Maybe its just coming to terms with self-identifying as "diabetic."

It doesn't help that, according to my trainer and dietitian, the problem I've been facing in weight loss is that, in general, I don't consume enough calories so my body camels up everything. Joking about my ice cream consumption aside, I really don't eat very much at all.

So, as I change diets, I need to figure out a way to eat diabetic safe foods *and* figure out a way to reach my caloric goal. Stupid body!
