🎃 Happy Halloween! 👻
Halloween is all about fun, creative costumes, and maybe a few extra sweets — and that’s okay! 🍫 Balance and mindfulness are the real treats.

✨ A few tips to enjoy the night:
• Eat a balanced meal before the festivities — it helps curb the candy rush.
• Savor your favorite treats (no guilt, just be picky with what you enjoy and balance!).
• Keep water on hand and walk for fun while trick-or-treating.

Healthy habits don’t mean missing out — they help you feel your best while allowing a chance to savor the moments that matter most. 💜

Helping People Find Their “Why” Through Self-Efficacy
By: Christine Craig, MS, RD, CDCES

As a diabetes education specialist, one of the most powerful tools I’ve found in supporting lasting lifestyle change is helping individuals uncover their personal “why”, the deeper reason they want to improve or maintain their health.

Whether its avoiding complications experienced by their family members, staying active to travel the world, or simply feeling better day-to-day, connecting behavior change to meaningful personal values gives purpose to the daily decisions that diabetes management demands. This internal purpose often drives more sustainable outcomes than external pressures or goals set by others.
