Type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and also gestational diabetes would be the three main forms of diabetes. Every type of diabetes differs from the other two. As a result of the body’s failure to create insulin, type 1 diabetes requires the person to inject insulin. It is also known as juvenile diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is a medical condition that results from insulin resistance where cells essentially neglect to use insulin correctly. It is also generally known as adult onset diabetes. Gestational diabetes happens when pregnant women develop high blood glucose levels in pregnancy.

Normally, most individuals that develop diabetes fall into one of these categories: they’re overweight, they are physically inactive, they have difficulty sleeping, they eat an unhealthy diet, they have relatives who have had diabetes, or all of the above.

No cure is available for diabetes presently. However, there are many different forms of diabetes treatment choices. With regards to the sort of diabetes a person has, diabetes treatment will vary. Every person who has diabetes will be required to keep a healthy, well-balanced diet, stick to a regular exercise regimen, and also keep track of glucose levels. Type 1 diabetes and certain cases of type 2 diabetes are treated with insulin.

What Are You Afraid Of That Is Keeping You Fat?

Copyright © 2011 Caroline Radway

Do you find that no matter how ‘good’ your intentions are to get healthy and fit, that you can’t seem to prevent yourself from messing it all up at a critical moment? Do you seem on autopilot when it comes to some of your less productive habits, resulting in self-sabotage that stop you from reaching those goals you were so dedicated to just a short while earlier?

There are always deeper things involved, so rather than getting further into that cycle of self-sabotage – guilt – denial – self sabotage why not think about things a little differently?

Our sabotaging behaviours, the mindset that triggers them and the overweightness that result can all stem from fear.

The patterns of behaviour are a comfort to us in times of need, they serve a purpose, even if its a misguided one, there are positives to be seen and recognised rather than just blaming. Subconsciously we are protecting ourselves from perceived threat – whatever that may be.

The resulting layer of unwanted fat is also protection – from unwanted attention perhaps, if there has been history of traumatic experience, but also it is often more universal and self-propagating – it is a way of hiding the light we have to shine, for fear that we are not good enough to shine it!

No matter how much we say we want to achieve whatever our goal is, we will hit a brick wall if deeper down than we can consciously see there is an emotional warning light flashing away like crazy, thinking it needs to protect us. This is enough to trigger seemingly pointless self-sabotaging behaviours. If we can regognise that these behaviours are actually serving a purpose, if a misguided one, we are in a much stronger position to unpick the behaviour and replace it with a more productive means to the same end – one that has positive health and figure consquences and that will actually make you feel better, rather than propagaing the self-sabotage cycle.

To recognise the purpose in these behaviours and that they are a response to deep seated fear – of failure or, in many cases, of success, is like shining a light into darkness. Send love to the behaviours and to yourself and the fear can no longer exist – as light does not just cancel out darkness, but actually dissolves it so it cannot exist.

Releasing and letting go of this fear is not about fighting anything, but about dissolving the resistance and letting a positive emotion and feeling take centre stage.

What is it we are afraid of? Why are we wrapping ourselves up in a comfort blanket of body fat?

The physical act of eating, especially ‘self medicating’ foods that are high in the trio of sugar, fat and salt (carefully prepared by the food industry to hit all the buttons that make you coming back for even more!) is often a response to a feeling of fear or anxiety in the stomach – we are literally pouring food or drinks onto the pain. Of course for some, the anxiety makes eating impossible, these people we often look at as lucky, but they are still suffering in their own way so it is not fair to judge – often these people wish they were healthier, fitter, had more energy and felt better about themselves, just that for some it won’t manifest in overweight.

Either way, the result is killing the pain and the fear and the emotions with food, or other substances, and also in many cases creating a protective blanket that shields us from making the next, somewhat scary steps in life.

How many of us think that life will be great when we’ve lost the next 5 / 10 / 20 lb? How many people are constanly putting things off until they reach that magic weight? The weight becomes an excuse not to move forward, and if you want to retain that excuse then it will mean losing the weight it extremely hard as your subconscious wants to keep you protected from the scary things that might be in store when you succeed!

A bit like an over-protective parent! We all know the feeling of seeing parents and despite being supposedly fully fledged adults we are warned to ‘be careful’ or ‘wrap up warm’ or whatever. And that can feel a bit restricting and limiting – yet our subsconscious is doing exactly that! Learning to identify the self-sabotaging behaviours as the same as that over-protecive parent can help us to ‘outgrow’ the behaviours and begin to shed the emotional baggage as well as the physical baggage.

Without the blanket we no longer have that excuse to fall back on and we have to take responsibility for our lives – the good and the not-so-good! We have to admit our supposed failures and weaknesses rather than hiding from them. The crazy thing is, when we admit them and take responsibility for them they usually become the source of great strength.

Being unable to lose weight no matter what you have tried, is actually an excuse in itself, the more you blame and berate yourself the more you propagate the cycle and make your success even more elusive. We quench the resulting emotions rather than letting them be, and dealing with them. We literally stuff them down, and then they are stored in our actual fat cells.

This is why giving up certain foods or certain patterns of behaviour can be so hard and actually be a very emotional experience. It is not so much the fact that you are not having something you may want, but that without that substance the feelings and emotions that the substance had kept under wraps begins to emerge and need dealing with! But I hope you can see how persevering is well worth it, as once you are free from the emotions and have dealt with them, it will also mean those old, outdated self sabotaging behaviours can go, making your journey a far easier one than you ever imagined!

Combining the right mindset and approaches to dealing with the mental and emotional side of things, with the right eating and exercising strategies, means that achieving your goals is well within your reach.

Just thinking positive thoughts is self-sabotage too, you have to take positive action too, so take the first step and have a look at what habits in your life right now are causing you the most pain, but that you are stuggling with changing. Identify what purpose these habits and behaviours are serving and then see how else you can meet that need, or let go of the emotion or feeling triggering the habit in the first place.

True self love and respect comes from exercising regularly, eating well whilst also enjoying things that are not nutritionally perfect once in a while without guilt or triggering a binge episode, and accepting yourself as you are now, as well as you as you will be when you achieve whatever your goal is. Without love now, your goals will elude you, as the guilt / blame / fear cycle cannot be broken without it! Love the protection your habits and resulting blanket of fat have given you, but let it go for good, as something that you no longer need! Once you identify what you are afraid of, its like switching a light on in a scene of a scary movie – it’s really not so scary after all (why do they never switch the lights on?!).

Go on, let it go!

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Marianne Williamson, A Return To Love.

Specialized Medical Treatment — Take Care Of Your Feet

Life in a big city involves lots of walking. A high percentage of individuals who live in and around a very large city depend on public transportation or their own legs to get them from point A to point B. Very few own and operate their own automobiles. This means that taking care of your “means of motivation” is important. Should you have any problems with your lower extremities, you will want to contact your local foot doctor to fix you up. The good news is that podiatry is not limited to a select few medical professionals. You will have a long list to choose from. Some of these physicians are specialists in a specialist field. So you need to narrow down exactly what your particular ailment is before you make a phone call for an appointment.

Problems related to your lower extremities are not restricted to the part of your body that you normally insert into your shoe, although that is a major player in this field of medicine. The problems can also involve anything below the knee, including the bones and muscles of the lower leg as well as the ankles. The list of disorders is lengthy, but usually the reason for visiting a physician is related to your ability to navigate in and around a large city.

Externally, there can be problems with the skin. These problems may be due to discomfort from the over production of skin, normally called a callus. Pressure on a callus can be quite painful if it is in a sensitive area. Plantar warts can also be painful, causing the need for removal. Other skin disorders can result from visiting public places where there is constant moisture, such as a gym or swimming club. The skin is prone to bacterial and fungal infections if it is not allowed to dry before being covered and thrust back into the confinement of your shoes. Other external treatment that is common is for toenails. This is especially true of older individuals who find it necessary to book frequent visits just to have their toenails clipped. It is possible over time to have a buildup of fungus under the toenail which is quite difficult to eradicate with the use of common over-the-counter fungal treatments.

Problems with the bone and tendon structure inside the lower extremities might be the most well know, if not the most common reasons to seek help to relieve pain. These include disorders that cause sometimes unbearable pain symptoms, which result in visiting a specialized professional. Such problems include sports injuries, arch disorders, arthritis, ankle injuries, heel problems, and soft tissue tumors, just to name a few.

Finally, one of the more difficult problems to treat exists as a result of diabetes. There are doctors whose practice is specifically geared toward diabetic care. The problem is due to the circulatory veins and arteries. Left untreated, diabetics can develop gangrene in their lower extremities, sometimes resulting in amputation. If your or your loved ones need specialized care in any of these areas, do not hesitate to consult a professional. It may require a visit to your primary care doctor first, but do not be bashful about asking to see a specialist.
