Happy Labor Day! And it just got better because today I received #samples of the new single serving of @superseedzofficial . These single serving packs are perfect for my between meal snacking with 3-4 grams #carb and 7-8 grams #protein per serving. ❤️ Im lol over here because I couldn’t wait till I finished taking the photo before having a bite! diabetesfriendly #plantbased #vegan #vegetarian #favoritesnack #snack #diabeteslife #goodeats #balancedbloodsugar #gourmetpumpkinseeds

Loved being nice and cozy to film this #youtubevideo. Perfect timing to post this important topic on #sleep especially after hearing about a sleep and #diabetes study today. “Patients who reported adequate sleep were more likely to improve diabetes knowledge and diabetes outcomes and those with higher motivation to change, had more adequate sleep.” See #youtube link in bio.

It’s #fig season! Never let your meals be boring. Add new flavors by using #cafigs in your recipes. Built a spinach salad w figs,slivered almonds, mozzarella cheese, and balsamic vinegar dressing for lunch today. Nutrition highlights...4 fresh figs =29g carbs; 4g fiber; 53mg calcium; 1mg iron; 348mg potassium 👏 Many fresh fig varieties in addition to dried figs 😋 #TDBox @cafigs @todaysdietitianmagazine #sponsoredmailing
Lunch time! Does anybody else like cutting their sandwich vs eating it whole? This sandwich is totally #comfortfood when you slice it. This is my kind of meal for #diabetesmanagement - #wholegrainbread + #protein (#egg) + lots of #veggies #sandwichmonth #eggenthusiast #eggnutrition #nationalsandwichmonth #diabetes #diabetesfriendly #diabetesfriendlyfood @egg.nutrition
The Fall issue of #diabeticlivingmagazine has arrived. It’s both a thrill and honor to be a columnist and serve on the advisory board for this beautiful and informative magazine. The thrill comes with my journey of keeping my #diabetes a secret for many many years to now writing and talking freely about this condition. Thank you @duffystar and @micaela_a_young for being such great, caring, and fun people to work with. You are the best! #meredithcorporation #diabetesmanagement #change #type1diabetes #type2diabetes #diabetestype1 #diabetestype2 #type1 #type2 #diabetescommunity #diabetesonlinecommunity #diabeteslife #diabetesredefined #youcandothis

Perfect pairing. We went kayaking this weekend but it had to be scheduled during the mealtime hours. No problem. I brought a chilled #Splenda Diabetes Care shake w a perfect combo of carbs (15g) and protein (16g) to keep my energy levels up. Result...Blood sugars stayed in target and we were able to see Roseate Spoonbill birds and manatees!
