SLIMMING WORLD: This week the experts from Slimming World are offering you simple tips to implement effective methods to avoid developing Diabetes.
Or if you’re living with Diabetes, simple tips to manage Diabetes in your daily life.
Have you been told that you have diabetes, or that you are at risk of developing it?
If so, it’s time to take extra care of yourself: once diabetes has developed it is with you for life, and you can expect to be in regular contact with a specialist care team.
However the most important member of your care team is – YOU.
Three of the most effective ways to manage your diabetes are;
1: to reach and maintain a healthy weight
2: to eat well
3: to be physically active
And you have the power to prescribe all these treatments to yourself!!
There is everything to play for. Many people with diabetes find that by losing excess weight with a safe healthy eating plan,, and becoming more active in everyday life, they can manage with less medication – often without any at all for some people with type 2 diabetes – and they hugely improve their chances of avoiding long term complications.
What’s more, people who are at risk of type 2 diabetes often find that the same ‘prescription’ of weight control, healthy eating and an active lifestyle can prevent it from developing at all.
At Slimming World, we specialise in helping people make positive, permanent lifestyle changes.
We have many members with diabetes who find that they lose weight and steadily become fitter and healthier, more easily and enjoyable than they ever thought possible.
Our food optimising eating plan is the ideal way to enjoy the healthy, balanced died recommended to help control your diabetes and to help you lose weight if you need to. Food optimising is extremely generous and offers incredible flexibility.
It puts you in control of the foods that you eat and when you eat them. So our members find that it’s easy to fit in any personal advice on diet they have been given by their diabetes care team.
Taking insulin or other medication need not be a barrier to losing weight; our research shows that Slimming World members with diabetes lose weigh as successfully as other members.
To find out more about the support we offer to diabetic members pop along to any of our groups where you will receive a copy of our diabetic booklet along with your new member pack to get you of to the best start.
