Self-Management Class #1
I had my first self-management class this week. My husband was invited along and he decided to see what this is all about. The dietitian planned out a personalized menu for me. Weight in weight was 191.7 lbs. Height: 5'2.5". We talked about food choices and testing monitors. Did you know that you have to cross a football field's length to wear off one M&M? Wowser.
The Dreaded Diabetes Word that is...
My mom was diabetic at 37. My oldest brother in his mid forties. My third brother in his mid forties. And here I am in my mid forties with sugar issues. I'm going to work hard at losing weight and eating better to avoid the wonderful complications that go along with diabetes. So off we go.
