Defense Against Diabetes

Feeling Good is Priceless – Help is Here!!

Since COVID 19, have you been having trouble taking care of yourself?  Have you gained weight, found yourself eating too many treats and sat in front of your TV or computer screen a lot?  This can be especially bad for someone living with health issues like diabetes, kidney or heart problems. 

The U.P. Diabetes Outreach Network (UPDON) is working with the National Kidney Foundation of Michigan (NKFM) to offer a FREE online program, Better Choices, Better Health, that will help get you back on track!! It is a 6-week program that you can sign up for anytime. Then just go to the site on your phone or computer when it works best for you – read short weekly lessons and share what works for you and get help on what problems you are having from others in your online group via a message board.   Set a small goal for yourself each week – something you want to do like choose vegetables more often as snacks, take a short walk after dinner 3 times this week or set up reminders on your phone to take your medication. If you need help, the leader and other group members are there for you. Ann Constance, MA, RDN, CDCES, FADCES , the Director of UPDON helped train leaders for one of the Better Choices, Better Health programs when it first started and here is what she has to say “This is one of the best and easiest to use online health programs that I have ever been a part of. It was exciting to see group members make lifestyle changes, improve their health and feel better. They also helped each other and celebrated successes together.” 

Join Better Choices, Better Health TODAY– there are a limited number of FREE slots available. You won’t want to miss out on this great offer to take better care of your health so that you can do the things in life that are important to you.  Just go to https://www.nkfm.org/communities-families/better-choices-better-health to sign up!!  Call UPDON at (906) 273-1120 or NKFM at 800-482-1455 for more information.
