The first week is always the most difficult, IMO, but after you get used to it it's not so bad. Don't be afraid to eat at the top range of your points for the first few days. How are you spacing out your foods? This is what I do:

Breakfast: 3-5 points
Mid-morning snack: 2-3 points
Lunch: 5-7 points
Mid-afternoon snack: 2-3 points
Supper: 5-8 points

Drinking lots of water helps keep you filled, and if you exercise, you can eat a few more points (I think the max is 5?) or save your points from one day to the next. Is there any info in the books about adjusting points for diabetics? (I don't remember, it's been a while since I've really read through them).

Good luck, we're all here for you!
