Research has shown a drop in A1c (three-month blood sugar level
average) of 1-2% in individuals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes in 3-6
months. And that is not all!! Working with a diabetes educator also
showed better blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
There are different goals to achieve: some are called behavioral
goals. When you change what you do, you will most likely see results.
The results are not the same for every person.
My husband and I think yours was the most informative and useful information. We appreciate all that you do to help those with diabetes.
Ms. Drago was an excellent source of information. Thanks for the fantastic, engaging workshop. As I said to the group, it was the best workshop I have attended in the 15 years I have had diabetes.
In 3 months my A1C went from 7.8 to 6.3 and my medication was reduced in half. Before working with Lorena, there were many things I did not understand about carbohydrates and what are the main reasons my blood sugar was high. Lorena taught me how to adjust my meal plan according to my blood sugar results and gave me lots of support. Diabetes requires discipline and Lorena checks-in with me and gives me feedback. I feel very pleased with my results and even my doctor told me to keep doing what I am doing. G.M., 58 year old male with Type 2 Diabetes.
