So I have some days at work where I am really struggling for time. My break time is short. I'm wondering if you guys can suggest something that will be okay to eat and give me some energy but not too many carbs (I am not doing super low carb because I feel like I need something). Often I just have 10 minutes. Suggestions?

Edited to add I am not in the US so I need something I can prepare ahead of time. Not eating prepackaged foods or processed meat.

So Doc gave me Jardiance along with vaginal suppositories and gel. I started taking it yesterday. I had a very high heart rate after doing very minimal activity. I think this is more connected to my new blood pressure meds because it was happening before Jardiance but my pulse wasn't so high. Yesterday it was 97-100 even at rest. My main worry with Jardiance is the UTI/yeast connection. Can you guys weigh in and tell me your experiences? Can we reduce the sugars in our blood by just drinking a lot or water without Jardiance? I really HATE meds. But I'm trying to do what the doc says. My A1c was 10.4 percent. BG: 300 at the drs office. Today it's 210. It's been less than a week. Also on Ozempic and Metformin. Doing low carb (but not keto). Focusing on veg and protein.

I just got home from the Dr office. She said I have type 2 diabetes very severely. I am in the third phase? Stage? I'm not sure how to say that because I'm in a foreign country and her English was good but not perfect. I am so mad at myself for letting myself get to this place without getting checked sooner. I had no symptoms. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I've already started eating healthier and need to try to focus on exercise next. I have knee issues but I do walk regularly. Please help because I'm.kond of freaking out. (Oh, she also said I have high blood pressure last week. And we are working on that already).
