A 12-month plan for surviving diabetes
The most frightening moment for most people with
diabetes is when they are first diagnosed. They are filled
with questions: What can I eat? What should I do? Is
there a plan for me to follow? While some people get a
plan from their doctor, most people do not.
Your First Year with Diabetes is the plan for everyone. It
walks you step-by-step through a first-30-days
survival plan, then shows a month-by-month program
for what comes next. Everything from a basic explanation
of diabetes, what you can eat right away,
and instructions on how to check glucose to a deeper
knowledge about diabetes nutrition, avoiding complications,
and better management.
Your First Year with
Diabetes also anticipates and explains problems such as
depression, illnesses, and needing to lose weight.
