In general, there’s “too much fat and sodium” and not enough healthy foods like veggies, fruits, whole grains, and fiber. While the study may find this surprising, I certainly don’t. Diabetics are no different than any other part of society and people everywhere are wrecking themselves with a poor diet. But with diabetes, people need to be extra diligent about eating right. If someone is Type 2 diabetic, they can greatly improve their blood sugar by eating right and working out.

You are a little on the big side, if you lost weight you would probably stop being diabetic. (I am a very athletic and strong size 14 and always have been. I have been an athlete my whole life and can still bench press some men under the table) Me- Uh huh. I do eat healthy. I have been built big and strong my whole life.

Gerri and Michael struck a balance by agreeing he would always share if his blood sugars were "ok" or "not ok", without handing over a detailed printout of his daily blood sugar swings. Gerri learned to nag less and rely on Michael to take care of himself. Tip No. 2: Ado...
