Think you need to give up the

foods you love to keep your

blood glucose on track? We’ve

got delicious news for you!

You don’t have to choose between nutrition and

flavor. Instead, imagine you’re on a quest to find

foods you love—that also happen to fit into your

smart-eating goals. Where to start?

call a truce with bread and pasta.With type 2 diabetes, you don’t want to cut out

carbs completely—grains, fruits, and veggies

offer many nutrients! Just balance these foods

throughout the day. Work with your health-care

provider to find the right amount of carbs for

you. Our recipes include nutritional information

to make tracking carbs easy.

drop the “diet” mind-set.While it’s true that people with diabetes need

to balance carbs, many of the nutritional goals

for people with diabetes are the same as for

anyone who wants to be healthy. Your aim is

a diet that’s:

• low in saturated and trans fats

• moderate in added sugars and sodium

• focused on a balanced diet, with whole grains,

fruits, vegetables, and low-fat or fat-free dairy.

Protein sources should be lean or contain

“good” fats (think fish, beans, nuts, and lean

meats); keep portions in check. (The at-a-glance

portion guide at GoodEatingGoodLiving.com

can help!) So share our recipes with friends and

family—they’re good eating for everyone!

go ahead … have a little dessert.Sugar is just one type of carb. It’s total carb

count—not just sugars—that will have the most

impact on your blood glucose levels. It’s okay to

eat a small dish of ice cream on occasion—just

count it as part of your total carb allowance.

The trick is to make sure sugar-containing

sweet treats don’t regularly take up carbs

(and calories) that should be reserved for more

nutritious foods.

make simple changes that add up.Most people don’t need to completely overhaul

what they’re used to eating. Small changes can

have big nutritional benefits. A few to try:

• Look for light or fat-free salad dressing,

mayonnaise, and sour cream.

• Enjoy CRYSTAL LIGHT Drink Mix or KOOL-

AID Sugar Free Low Calorie Soft Drink Mix

instead of your usual sweetened tea, lemonade,

or punch. On-the-go versions help you take your

refreshment to work, restaurants, and more—

just stir a packet into ice water or a water bottle.

• Try eating an All American Flame Grilled

BOCA Burger on occasion instead of the

usual ground beef burger patty.

Spending time in a gym isn’t the only way to give your body a boost! Every move you make, every day, adds up.

How will you choose to move today? Here are

five easy ways to think about exercise.

put one foot in front of the other. Walking is low-impact and easy to do—on your

lunch break, after dinner, on vacation. Try to

take more steps tomorrow than you did today,

or walk for more minutes.

have fun with friends and family. Walking a dog, biking with your spouse, and

playing tennis with a pal are great cardio moves.

give stress the boot.All kinds of exercise can ease tension, but some

have de-stressing at their core, including Pilates,

yoga, and tai chi. You can also try an activity that

makes you focus on the here-and-now (and not

on your to-do list), such as dancing.

shape up your home.Regular chores—from sprucing up the house to

weeding the garden—burn calories, too. So do

home-improvement projects like painting.

take care of the Earth.Walk to the drugstore instead of driving. Use

old-fashioned pruners instead of an electric

hedge trimmer to shape your shrubs. These

kind of activities are good for the planet—and

your body, too.

Whatever you choose to do, toast your efforts

with your favorite flavor of CRYSTAL LIGHT

Pure Fitness On the Go Drink Mix—a naturally

sweetened, low-calorie fitness drink with

electrolytes to aid hydration.* Then take a

moment to celebrate how good you feel!

it’s time to redefine exercise

*When you consume one packet during light physical activity.

fit benefitsRegular, sustained

exercise can reduce

blood glucose, burn

fat, and support

heart health. Just

check with your

doctor before

getting started.

And keep tabs on

your blood glucose

levels before,

during, and after

exercise.

besides my doctor, who can help?Check with your doctor and insurance provider

about getting help with meal planning from a

registered dietitian or medication assistance from

a registered pharmacist. Podiatrists, optometrists,

and exercise physiologists can also help you live

well with diabetes. Look for professionals with a

certified diabetes educator (CDE) credential.

do I need to log my levels every day?Logging gives you indications about why your

numbers are low or high. It also helps ease

anxiety over a poor reading. Instead of feeling

bad, applaud yourself for learning how to

improve. Include the date and time, blood-check

results, diet, activity, and medication. Also note

any illnesses or stress. Talk to your doctor or a

CDE about what targets are right for you.

can stress affect my diabetes?When facing stress, our schedules get juggled.

We don’t get enough sleep. We forget to

exercise. Maybe we drink or eat a bit more.

All of these factors can affect blood glucose

levels. Even if you’re able to keep your

lifestyle chugging along smoothly, stress can

still disrupt your body’s engine in ways you

might not realize. In fact, research shows that

stress causes blood glucose levels to jump

significantly. To find calm, go for a walk, listen

to music, or call a friend to talk.

Good Eating, Good Living has

tons of great recipes and

fitness ideas to try. But what

else can we help you with?
