I know I could search the sub, but I'm feeling very overwhelmed. Went for a physical Friday fully expecting them to tell me to make healthier choices, but I was NOT expecting a diabetes diagnosis and 8.6%.

I'm a 41M from the US with a wide, toddler, and 6 month old. I've been told I'll meet with a specialist and begin meds soon (mounjaro and something else I can't recall).

Curious your best tips, learnings, food substitutes, etc. I'll dive into the sub once I wrap my mind around this more fully. But for now - thanks so much in advance.
