I joined a diabetes prevention program through my health insurance.
I received a food scale and jump rope in the box.
I feel, I have a good balance of looking at ingredients and reasonable portion sizes.
I don’t follow diet culture guidelines.
My struggles
I struggle with sweet cravings. It’s part of Hashimotos. I purchase smaller portions of sweets vs a whole pie or cake.
I struggle with staying motivated. When I experience flare ups, I take emergency medications for a period of time and sleep a lot from the medications. This triggers my depression. Constantly sleeping and feeling like I’m missing out on life.
It’s my goal to use the jump rope.
I’m going to purchase a backpack to keep my water with me. I like going walking
