  • Healing is impaired by diabetes. That is why getting and keeping your blood sugar under control is critical. Knowing if you are type 1 or type 2 is critical. I would follow up with your doctor asap. Also get into a diabetes education class. I also like http://www.diabetes.org.

  • I go for a walk and listen to an audio book. I still want my favorite stress food but at least I am not around it. :)

  • I like my Fitbit Charge. I have had it three days and it is helping me get in my steps. I am wondering if I should track non-step exercise. As an example, I have been doing active gardening (digging, planting etc) for two+ hours and I know I "earned" steps but it seems like I may have used more calories than just the…

  • So I have been working to get back into tight control for the last month. I am testing 4 times a day, monitoring my carb for every meal and snack. The good news is that my average blood sugar has gone from the high 200s (and sometimes to low 300s) down a daily average of about 114. I am walking everyday, bought a fitbit…

  • I just got my fitbit charge yesterday. I cannot get the steps to log into MFP. I have set it up to sync but it is not doing so. Any ideas?

  • Hi. I appreciate everyone's posts. I have had Type 2 diabetes for years. I have been in good control off and on. Lately, I have been way out of control. Work has been so stressful and have had 2 family members in the hospital at the same time for heart surgery/heart failure and other major stressors. Then this week my…
