“If want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together” - African Proverb
If you have diabetes, you can’t do it alone.
You can TRY...
But it ends up being a hell of a struggle with major challenges every step of the way.
There are SO MANY THINGS diabetes throws at you….
On top of EVERYTHING ELSE you are trying to accomplish in your life.
💀Your blood sugar tanks during that super important presentation at work
💀You wake up with a high blood sugar and feel like garbage.. with no explanation to the high
💀You miscalculate your dose, now your blood sugar is skyrocketing and it ruins a social event
Diabetes can feel super isolating....
So instead, lean on a support system!
The diabetes online community (here on IG or on Facebook) is MASSIVE and has a TON of people who understand what you are going through!
Friends and family can certain be there to listen and help a bit….
And mentors and healthcare providers who GET IT.
My team and I are dietitians who live with diabetes every day and GET what you go through daily.
We know it may be tough for your docs and endo clinic dietitians to understand it all….
But this community is a magical place, so lean on the online space and make some new diabesties!
