We are living in a time where the only thing we can control is how we care for ourselves. Why not give this a try? I plan to

When many people learn that I recommend 12 to 18 daily servings of non-starchy vegetables—the equivalent of 6 to 8 cups—they tell me, “That’s not remotely possible!” I understand the pessimism. Most people consume only 1-½ cups a day—a mere sixth of what I recommend.

What's your food story?

Was food used as a reward or punishment? Was food readily available or in short supply? Did you eat alone or with family? Were there home-cooked meals or was quick and fast food eaten most of the time?

Is your food story affecting your health?

Acknowledging and understanding our individual food stories is key to gaining and maintaining good health.

Here’s why working with a nutritionist (and sometimes even a therapist) is a must when trying to heal pre-diabetes & diabetes. Food addiction is real!

This is public service announcement….

IF you are moving more You MAY need to eat more.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.🙂

Just checking in...did you move more last week? If so, what did you do? If not, why not?

I managed 3 Tonal workouts, went line dancing for a few hours, took a walk in the park with hubby and cleaned my house.

All movement counts!

Moving large muscles helps lower blood sugar without the need for insulin. This is a VERY BIG DEAL! Pre-diabetes/diabetes means our pancreas needs a break from releasing insulin. Moving more gives the pancreas a break. As the pancreas gets the rest it needs, it works better.

What's your goal over the next week?
