Diabetes 1.5, really?
Sort of like prediabetic, or a little pregnant.
Ask your primary care physician to refer you to a diabetes education class and a nutritionist.
I used to have a sweet diabetic cookbook from Gourmet magazine in my waiting room, would photocopy recipes out of it for my patients. Despite the free copy service announced on the cover in sharpie, people tore so many pages out of that hardcover book that it fell apart.
There are a lot of diabetic cookbooks out there.
