  It’s made me mentally tougher. When someone said “you can’t do that”, my response became “oh yeah? watch me.”

  It makes me think twice before I put food in my mouth. I have to ask myself, 'Do I really want to shoot up for that?'

  D.R.A.W. It’s a theme I’ve used in public speaking. D is for discipline; a concept some people have to join the army to learn. R is for reward. You must reward yourself for things well done. A is for awareness. Awareness of yourself and others keeps you alive. W is for wonderment. Believing or thinking about things bigger than yourself. ル˖ ♡ ₍ ᐢ..ᐢ ₎ 📍 ࣪ . >

  Diabetes has forced me to have a more regimented life when it comes to diet and exercise. I probably wouldn’t be as disciplined without it. People tell me I look 10 years younger than my 58 years. I think a lot of that is attributed to how I take care of myself.

  Being aware of nutrition in foods, and eating well. I exercise regularly too, but may have done so regardless of T1D.

  For me it's hard to find positive ways considering the many doctor appointments and physical effects that I must deal ith on a daily basis. What is positive are many people i have met that have shared words of encourgement and their journey of living with diabetes.For that I am grateful.

  My eating habits improved 100%. I didn’t know a starch from a free vegetable in terms of carbs. My irritable bowel problems disappeared because I started eating breakfast and cut out carbonated colas. That alone was worth it.

  I get up and take walks after meals. I eat with more thought. I see the doctor more. I’m more aware of my health.
