As spring arrives, the world becomes busier, presenting both challenges and opportunities.

Additionally, spring is a popular time for starting gym routines, but it's important to approach fitness with caution and perhaps medical consultation.

What qualities help you overcome the challenges you face (which ones are concerning to you at this time)?

Winter is full of ups, many festivals both religious and non-religious are during these months and we overindulge. We get invited to parties and our lives are often in flux. This affects us all differently and sets up challenges that we need to adjust to, which adds to the anxieties and concerns when you have a medical condition like diabetes, hear what some of these worries are for our health-shared community. Whatever your worries, there is someone who has been there before and hearing their story can give you some peace of mind. Overindulgence is part of the human frailty and something we all have battles with, because it brings with it feelings of guilt, annoyance, and sometimes depression. Alcohol is sometimes one of those excesses at this time of year. It is important to understand how much it effects your diabetes and how to manage and treat yourself. The health-shared diabetes community shares with you their stories and you can join the conversation.

My views on Types of Diabetes.

Chris talks about how how he feels that both Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes should both be taken seriously. He shares his learning on both Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes. He talks about a relative who took his type 2 Diabetes lightly but felt that early care and attention to things like weight loss may be helpful in the longer term. Chris has also come across people with Gestational Diabetes as well as women with Type 1 Diabetes who were pregnant. He ends by talking about the benefits of good blood glucose control.

GASTROPARESIS: DIET INFORMATION

Dietary recommendations for gastroparesis are designed to minimize symptoms while keeping patients hydrated and nourished. The basic GP diet calls for small, frequent, low-fat, low-fiber, high-protein foods and liquids which are easier to digest. Many diet plans call for a 3-step process, beginning with a liquid-only diet and then progressing to soft-foods (low-residue, low-fat), and eventually, a maintenance diet (which adds just a bit more fat as well as some well-cooked, easy to chew foods).
