Diabetes Management can be challenging and distressing for a lot of families. In our Live Discussion sessions we talk to eminent doctors and patients for tips, vital information and motivation.
In continuation of our series on Living Better With Diabetes we have with us
Dr. Usha Sriram, Diabetes Specialist, Founder, Diwaaas.
Jayesh Shah, Type 2 Diabetes, Mumbai
Marianne de Nazareth, Type 2 Diabetes, Bengaluru
Dr. Usha is passionate about the role of families in diabetes management and will shed light on the increased incidence of diabetes in India and women and how proactive monitoring and screening can reduce the burden of diabetes care.
Jayesh and Marianne will share their experiences with Diabetes Management, the challenges they faced and how they dealt with it. Watch out for their tips.
Marianne says: I also made small modifications in my diet. I cut down my consumption of sugar substantially; I quashed my carvings for chocolates, pastries, cakes; I stopped having rice. It requires a lot of will power to change old habits.
Jayesh says: The biggest problem I had was to start working out; there was a huge inertia and getting over it was not easy. It helps if you don’t think of any change you make as a lifestyle change; think of it as dropping a bad habit.
