Dieting and Diabetes

During a friendly arguement my Grandmother told me long ago that I was full of "BS".  Well like her I have aquired, rather caused myself to have Type 2 Diabetes.  So Yes Grandma, I AM full of BS!  Neither type is a good thing to be full of! lol  Like her I have been able to control mine with pills.

I remember as a kid she would let us use her test strips to check our own.  They didn't test blood at home in those days!  We thought it was fun!  I was always in the right color range :)  I wasn't diagnosed until I was 56.  I wasn't surprised, I had gained over 70 lbs within the 10 years leading up to that date.  I was scarfing down carbs like there was no tomorrow.  Then I'd get a grip, Diet for a few days then start having peanut butter sandwiches again at 3am!  Not so good.

After being diagnosed I kept my levels really well.  Great start.  A1c's below 7, doing pretty good all around but I wasn't loosing weight, my levels earlier this year had crept up to between 120 and 170 in the am.  Saw a picture of myself, was totally grossed out at what I had done to myself and decided to make a change.

I found a website, checked it out, bought the product, tried it, BS came down to within normal limits, have lost 16 lbs in 5 1/2 weeks and now I am writting about it!  It feels so good to have those sugar levels under control!!!  I use several products that are all natural and work on a cellular level in your body to help support your systems.  I have more energy than I've had in a long time. One of the products really helps support steady bs levels.  It is  called Snack Defense,  the product helps keep your blood sugar levels in check. Snack Defense, is a unique herb blend that helps your body process sugar from your meals and snacks. It is a distinct medley of botanical and mineral ingredients is caffeine-free, so you can take it any time, day or night.  This is not a cure but it has helped me keep my #'s in check and I have read messages in the Herbalife Community site that others have posted, that are having good experiences also.

As I stated before I have lost 16 lbs in a short time period, I have ALSO brought my BS levels down to normal limits!  So happpy.  I was so impressed that I"d like to share the Herbalife health supporting information with you. Choosingabetterlife@herbalhub.com  You will find my story and other information.  Please look around and join the Community.  No purchase required or Necessary. Really!
