- Welcome to my channel! I'm Mila Clarke, also known as The Hangry Woman. I'm an internationally recognized diabetes food and health writer, speaker and author dedicated to sharing approachable resources about living an empowered life with diabetes.
In this video, I'll be showing you what I eat in a day as someone with diabetes. From breakfast to dinner, I'll show you how to make healthy and satisfying, delicious meals. So join me as I share my tips for managing diabetes through diet and nutrition!
A few things to note:
-I have LADA, a form of Type 1 Diabetes
-I'm an insulin user, though I did not show insulin injections in this video.
-I'm all about balance and mixing meals - you don't have to make everything at home, or only eat salads all day to manage diabetes.
-I also set the top of my glucose range to aim for 150 mg/dL, which is a tighter range than most.

Thank you for this. I've been diagnosed with diabetes Type II, and I've come to the sobering realization that I have to make a concerted effort to make some changes in my life.
Think of it as an adventure. learning new foods, new tastes. It will put some more spark into your food and make you want to try new, healthier things. I'm going on 11 yrs being a T2 diabetic. My A1C has gone from 14.1 upon diagnosis to 6.6 with diet and exercise. Still working at it, but it's worth the journey.
@@GarouLady I'll be working on it starting tomorrow.
Small steps my friend! You don't have to overhaul everything - that's so overwhelming. Start small! Maybe it's adding extra veggies to your meals for a week, or getting in some kind of exercise for 10 minutes a day and then building up from there. You can do this, I promise. And I'm here for ya if you need encouragement.
So proud of you, and I love your outlook. Great job in your progress!
@@TheHangryWomanThank you.
I love that you're becoming a health coach. I feel like most dietitians naturally have genetics that predispose them to be relatively thin. So even if they've struggled with eating disorders, they don't know what it's like to have society look at their bodies and assume they are unhealthy just because they're fat, whether or not that's true. So it's amazing to see a healthcoach with your life experience.
I don't have diabetes, but I have found that having a small portion of simple carbs really just makes a meal feel worth eating purely in terms of taste. I love eating shrimp with bell peppers and red onion, but I am gonna need a small portion of sushi rice to give me that taste satisfaction that makes me enjoy the meal as a whole.
So happy I found your channel! New subscriber. I have type 2 diabetes. I'm 56 and I struggle to lose weight. I'm getting ready to start ozempic. I'm excited to get results lose weight and feel better.
Thanks for sharing and being open with us! It's great that you know your body and can take care. That grain bowl looked delicious.
Thanks so much Julie! I'm really in love with grain bowls lately. They satisfy my desire for rice, but have way more fiber and protein, so the glucose spike isn't as severe, especially when paired with some extra veggies.
I just found your channel! Got diagnosed recently and it really made me realize that I have to take care of myself. I have pcos as well. My doc also placed me on metformin and ozempic 0.25 and I started two weeks ago so far it’s been good but watching your vids have really been a big help!
PCOS is a nightmare all on it's own !❤
Thanks for showing real life!
Thank you for acknowledging this! I wanted to show that sometimes you need a little bit of grace, creativity and flexibility when you didn't make a plan 😂. This day turned out great, and I loved everything I got to eat!
New subscribers.I found your channel so helpful 😊 Thank You!
So happy you’re here!
I got type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol! Obese. I got to get fit again. Good video
Still the queen of all the fancy gadgets!! I'm looking at all the wonderful comments you are getting. ☺️ You are helping so many people! So happy and proud of you Mila. You are awesome. See you in the next video
Thank you so much for all that you do and inviting us in your world! It helps how I feel about my own diabetic journey.
I feel you girl, in terms of planning and when your days are more unusual than others. This past week I've been out of my home a lot more than usual, so I've been eating out a lot more because of that and figuring out what meals can keep me full for longer. Some weeks, you know you'll eat less healthy than you did the week before and sometimes, doing that can help keep you on track for the healthier weeks.
Yes! This! I really liked doing this video because not every day looks exactly like this. Some weeks I do great and I meal prep on the weekend, and I have everything and order. Some days I can cook every single meal. Other days, like this, are busy and I don't have a plan and just have to do my best putting things together. I really wanted to show the most chaotic, non-perfect day because it's life!
@@TheHangryWoman Totally! Yesterday, I took a day off from work after winning a lottery to be part of the Daily Show audience. So knowing I'd have to leave my apartment around 11 and that I wouldn't get to eat between 1:30pm and 6:30pm if not even later, I did get a mushroom cheeseburger and mashed potatoes at a diner near the studio because I needed to feel satisfied for a long while without snacks.
I also love fresh seafood. But I do need to be at home to cook it and I do need to eat it within 2 days after it gets delivered to my home. So some weeks I'll plan to not get that delivered if it's an usual week like this one is.
Hi Mila! Thanks for sharing your journey. I enjoy watching you prepare simple, healthy meals. I’ve wanted to grow herbs inside but I don’t get much sunlight in my house. Can you share what type of indoor herb gardening system you’re using? The basil is phenomenal. Thank you.
I have Type 2 Diabetes and I totally agree with you everyones body is different! My blood sugar tends to spike at night so if I am going to have a heavy carb meal I will usually it during lunch when my blood sugar tends to drop low.
I love that strategy! Those are the kinds of things that help us individually manage our blood sugars in a way that works for us, but still feels satisfying. 😍
I want to make low carb coffee I like hot hazelnut coffee anyway to have it taste sweet but not spike my sugars too bad ?
Also the burnout video you made is great a lot of people even doctors don’t understand that we want a break from diabetes management sometimes even though we really shouldn’t take a break
Thanks so much for the comment on the burnout video! I’m glad it resonated.
Monin has my favorite sugar-free syrups and their hazelnut one is incredible- tastes like the real thing and no weird aftertaste. The only drawback is the bottle is kind of big, so you really have to like the flavor you’re getting 😂. Their syrups don’t spike me much, and 1-2 teaspoons is all I need to add some sweetness. 💕
I love your videos. And how nice that you work from home. That’s my dream but would not know were to start or what type of jobs. That sandwich looks good . I’ve been on this injection for 5 weeks only lost 3 lbs. 😢
I’m in the beginning stages of type 2- insulin resistance. I’d suggest alotn ore protein for a number of reasons- satiety, muscle repair, etc. Also, less processed stuff bc I’ve noticed anything processed or fast food will spike my blood sugar- if I make it myself i might spike but it’s not as bad. My biggest vice is coffee- darn it, wish I could be satisfied with a plain tea. I’ve also noticed building muscle and fasting really are both so helpful many diabetics are afraid to fast for some reason
The FS Libre 3 is SO MUCH smaller and simpler than the older versions!! Wow, how nice to have so much less to deal with at application. Less waste too.
Also LOL at that tiny salad! What!
The salad shocked me lol! The only reason I ordered the sandwich was because I thought I'd get to pair it with a big salad to offset the bread. That was a fail lollll!
Thanks Mila you’re such an inspiration! Love you
Love you too, friend! Thank you so much for your kind words!
This was so helpful, thank you! Your content has helped me so much since being diagnosed earlier last year. 💜 apologies if you’ve already shared this and I just haven’t found it yet, but is your bracelet a medical alert one?! It’s so cute and I’d love to order a similar one (I travel often for work and think I need to get one). 💓
Thank you so much! That means the world to me!
After my mom passed away, my dad gave me her bracelets. The one I’m wearing is her Tiffany’s bracelet. But the medical ID charm is from Lauren’s Hope! I got it engraved with them as well, and I love their stuff. It’s so cute and lasts forever, but I love having the clasped charm I can add to any bracelet or keychain!
@@TheHangryWoman thank you so much for responding!!!
Thanks so much for this video. I’ve recently been diagnosed with type two diabetes, and while I’m doing well the initial jolt of adrenaline of making changes is wearing off and I’m beginning to feel a little discouraged and your video definitely helped. You are fabulous. I mean that helps but the food choices, and seeing what you eat in there, you eat all that bread and carb gives me a little courage to try that and see how it works for my body. Also, I hope this isn’t a rude question, but can you tell me what bra you were wearing on or what type of undergarment you were wearing with that turquoise dress in the beginning because obviously as you know, busty girls are always looking for that type of support and it looks amazing on you and I just would like to know what it is. Thank you.
I feel you sis! A lot of my diabetes management has been trial and error to just see what works. And a variety works well for me. I did high protein for breakfast, a carb with a salad for lunch, and then grains and veggies for dinner and I kept pretty steady despite being a little over my personal range!
And that's not a rude question at all! I was actually braless in the green dress lol, but I LOVE NOOD Bra adhesives when I want to wear something with a weird top, and also CUUP bras. They're a little expensive, but the most comfortable bras I've ever worn in my life!
@@TheHangryWoman thanks for that recommendations but we can’t be friends if you can go braless. Lol. Enjoy your life 😉
How’s the weight loss going?
Thanks!
Thank you for being here 💕
What is the update on the weight loss after ozempic
Could you please type the name of that protein breakfast? I looked at Costco galleria today but didn’t see them! Thank you!
They’re called Lahli Protein bites! They were in the freezer section 🙂
And how are you doing so far on the ozempic
Who are you taking your life coach certification from or with?
Do you like the libre or finger stick and does the libre hurt
I got diabetes
180? You need to bolus with more fast acting insulin for that meal. If you are dropping hours after a meal your basal insulin is too high.
Please explain what you mean about basal being too high?
I would have used half the lentil package, added some chickpeas, sliced radishes, cucumber and onions, some nuts for crunch. 72 carbs is way too much for a diabetic to eat in one meal.
But as you can see, my blood sugar handled it well. Don’t forget the 10g of protein and fiber in the grains - it’s not all carb, and I don’t just focus on carbs. That’s a great solution you provided for some extra protein and fiber.
