When I was diagnosed w/ Diabetes almost two years ago I made up my mind then that I was going to do something about it, and believe it or not I was determined. Well, things happen. For instance, I started walking a little bit and I got sores on my feet and in between my […]

I get a lot of questions regarding how I track and report my blood sugar readings so I figured I would do a post on Glooko, the best app I’ve ran into for diabetics. Going into my upcoming “medical makeover” w/ Hippocrates Health that I blogged about last week, this has been one of the […]

I just sat down and ordered myself one of those diabetic bracelets a few minutes ago. This might not sound like a big deal, and you might even ask yourself why I haven’t already done this, after all I was diagnosed back in December of last year. You see, for me I’ve been looking at […]
I’ve had a couple of people ask me to post an update as to how things are going w/ the whole Diabetes thing so here goes. Before I go any further though, I’m going to go ahead and give you a heads up disclaimer, I’m going to be talking about feet. I know some of […]
I just wanted to post a quick update for those of you that have asked how I’m doing with my new regimen of lifestyle changes (diet, exercise, and nutritional supplements). Long story short I received a phone call the other day from my doctor where he told me to basically start weening myself off of […]
