Diabetes Type 2

 

Good Morning to the world!  I hope today you will find it to be a Great Day!   Some of you may note a bit of sarcasm but I really do mean it.  

 

  So my thing today is food.  I found out about 3 weeks ago that I have type  2 diabetes.   Well that actually pissed me off at first.  I mean the nerve of my body attacking me with this!!

 

  I am still getting over the pissed off part but now I am realizing that I did this to my body and it is giving me a wake up call.   I mean thank goodness I can still keep it under control with diet and exercise.  Thank goodness it was found out before it was completely out of control.      

 

 Even though I still resent the change in my life I am also grateful for it because it will force me to do the things I should have been doing all along with more consistency.   I would love to hear from anyone who knows about diabetes, who knows about healthy foods or just hear from anyone.  

 

                                May everyone have a great Sunday!

good attitude!

The neat thing about Type 2 diabetes is that with exercise, weight loss, and healthy eating, you CAN make a difference - even reverse its effects. Talk as soon as possible to a diabetes educator or dietitian and get a program set up.  Test your blood and follow the diet.  YOU can beat this.

Good luck!  I work with diabetics a lot so if I can help, please contact me...

You did it! You can do it!

Own it!

Well, I don't know enough about diabetes to help you, but I was told that I had IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) about 3 years ago. It changed my life. If you know anything about IBS you know that it's a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning they can't pin point what you have so because it affects your digestive system-then it IBS. Anyway, the point is, I was pissed too and for a long time I didn't believe that's what I had. Eventually, I realized they had checked everything they could and didn't find anything seriously wrong with me, so what am I to really complain about. The best thing to control this so called IBS is diet and exercise-just like most illnesses. So now I try to eat healthy and exercise in a variety of ways. Just make sure you're having fun and your body is getting what it needs. For me Bikrham yoga is the best as it keeps my heart rate up for 90 minutes and is incredibly relaxing, meditating, and strengthening. I always come out feeling like I've done an intense workout, and I have without any stress :)
