How To Save On Diabetic Supplies
filed under Uncategorized
Diabetes, I believe, can be controlled, managed, and overcome. A diagnosis of diabetes can have a huge emotional impact including denial, anger, hopelessness, and heartache. You may wonder what you’re going to have to sacrifice and how your life will change from the way it is now, which may lead you to believe diabetes is in control of life. These are all real concerns and with the right tools and mindset, you can control your diabetes rather than allowing it to control you. One of the most common questions I get about diabetes treatment is: “Can I lower my hemoglobin A1C while I eat the foods I like?” My answer to this is absolutely yes, when you work with all aspects of your lifestyle, because that should be the natural progression of gaining control over diabetes.
Questions to answer when working on diabetes treatment include:
I believe that never requesting you to give up your favorite food, enables you to work towards goals you can sustain with less resistance. Then you work on emotional aspects of change, what that might mean; and when you’re ready, take the next step.
Working with foods you already like and focusing on moving the times of the day when you eat those foods, make change easier by keeping them part of your life. You start to get comfortable with food and timing that stabilizes blood sugar. My motto for diabetes management is to “Go Beyond It”. By this, I mean that food becomes normal, and not something you must think about. This allows you to focus on other areas of your life aside from diabetes.
The ultimate goal is for you to gain full control of your diabetes, which means that you have a hemoglobin A1C less than 6mg/dL, and your life becomes your focus, not your diabetes. It is important that you find yourself free of diabetes and free to live without the stigma of disease.
