#insulite

Il diabete di tipo 1 è una condizione cronica in cui il sistema immunitario attacca e distrugge erroneamente le cellule beta del pancreas che producono insulina. La perdita di queste cellule porta a livelli elevati di glicemia e richiede una terapia insulinica continua e un attento monitoraggio per evitare gravi complicazioni.

I'm taking baby steps with this diet and my aim for the first week is twofold:

Eat breakfast every day (I never used to be able to leave the house without having breakfast but these days I find it difficult to eat for a couple of hours after getting up) and take other meals are proper times (I'm bad for eating at silly times)

Get into a routine of taking the Nutraceuticals from Insulite when I'm supposed to

Here's what 3 months of Insulite looks like:

  I'll talk more about what each pot includes and how many I have to take in a future post.

It felt like a mammoth task taking so many pills over the course of a day...I hardly had room for food. Maybe that's the point - you're so full of supplements that you can't eat much else.

I also had to increase my water intake. I drink a lot of water every day but I never felt like I'd drunk enough today. I assume that's due to my body adjusting to all the new supplements (plus your body needs plenty of water to deliver the vitamins and minerals where they're needed).

Many of you will know me from the PCOS Matters website, where I usually post information on living with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. However, I've recently decided it's time to get myself a bit fitter and healthier, and try to drop weight, and thought I should share the majority of day to day information away from the blog.

So here I am on Tumblr.

I would love you to make a commitment to start your own PCOS diet too and share you own experiences here and on Facebook (watch out for the new Facebook page I'll be setting up over the weekend).

As it happens I'm going to be using Insulite to help me lose weight and I'll explain why as we go along, but this isn't essential. Whether you're doing Insulite or not, you can still be a part of this and we can encourage each other along the way.
