This is a short beginners guide written in a conversational tone for newly diagnosed diabetics, or for diabetics that just need the basic guidelines on the tools you needed to make themselves healthier. Some topics covered are kitchen necessities, reading labels, diet, foods to avoid, and exercise. I want to stress the reason I wrote this is because this is how I helped myself until I got to class. I then found out that the guidelines I used in this publication is correct, by my Dr's standards, and since it has worked for me I wanted to share. This is only one of many options your Dr might use to help you control your diabetes.
I also want to share, while using this diet I have lost over 50 lbs over 3 months. I have been able to control my Blood Sugar levels and maintain my weight loss. This may not be how YOUR dr wants you to ultimately maintain your blood sugar if you are diabetic but it will help you until you do get into a class.
If you are NOT diabetic but are looking for a life style change to help you lose weight and maintain it, then this may help you.
