Getting a diagnosis of diabetes is like getting a second job. The good news is you're management. The bad news is you don't get a vacation. You have to take care of yourself, so you don't burn out.
Whether you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes, there are three tools that will keep you healthier and make managing your diabetes easier.
The first is activity. When you work your muscles, let's say walking around the block, they get their energy by sucking glucose out to the bloodstream, making it easier to control your levels.
If you exercise regularly, a 30-minute walk several times a week, you'll build extra muscle. Even when it's resting, muscle uses more energy than fat. So even when you're not exercising, you win.
The next tool is especially important if you have type 2 diabetes: consume fewer calories. Carbs and sugars turn straight into glucose when they're digested, and that goes directly into your bloodstream.
When you stop overloading your system with excess calories, your body will need less insulin and for all diabetics, that makes regulating your blood sugar a lot easier. If you eat less, you'll lose weight. Losing weight also helps you prevent other complications from heart disease to circulatory problems to back pain.
For type 2 diabetics, diet and exercise have an even bigger payoff. You can slow down or even reverse the progression of type 2 diabetes.
And the third thing, don't stress out. Managing diabetes is a job, but it's not a crisis. Worrying makes you lose sleep. Stress and exhaustion make you want to eat. So, think like a manager. Managing your lifestyle makes managing your diabetes a lot easier.
