Review Your Health Habits



Make Healthy Habits


It is just as easy to make healthy habits as to make bad habits. It is better to start forming habits in childhood, but it is never too late to change. As a diabetic it is important to understand what foods and habits work against you and list them so you have a working plan.

Do not try to change everything at one time. This is overwhelming and will set you up for failure. Every week make a goal and stick to it. One such goal might be to drink 5 bottles of water or the equivalent every day. If you find that you cannot drink five bottles of water pull back to 4. Learn to negotiate your way through your food and drink until you discover what works for you and your lifestyle.

Fruits and vegetables are a part of a healthy lifestyle. Do not give up fruit because it causes your glucose levels to spike. Rather have a smaller portion. This is part of the balancing act you must do to keep your levels on track. If you want to have an orange for a snack have half now and half later. This works, is healthy, and will satisfy your needs as well. You can make healthy changes if you try.
