Every year, I know it’s coming… But somehow the craziness of May always catches me off guard. 🤪 Between the end of the school year activities and performances, to swim team practices, to work commitments… It feels like I’m always on the go and don’t always have time to prep a meal or eat before I leave the house.

It’s about time for our quarterly PSA!! ☺️❤️
.
There’s a big difference between a host or hostess asking:
.
“Can you eat ______, I was thinking about making it when you come over?”
.
And someone who says:
.
“Are you sure you should be eating that?”
.

One shows thoughtfulness, care, and consideration for someone. The other shows a lack of sensitivity and outright judgement about what is appropriate for someone else.
.

I love when people check with me to make sure something they’re preparing or serving is ok for me to eat. It shows me they genuinely care about me. But just a slight change in wording can completely shift how someone with diabetes feels... suddenly they feel as if they’re being judged and all those feelings of isolation, awkwardness, and guilt come flooding in. Please choose your words carefully this summer. ❤️ #letusenjoyouricecream

Remember that delicious looking no added sugar dessert board I posted a few days ago?? It would be the perfect way to celebrate mom this weekend for Mother’s Day!
.
Here’s all the details on it:
• Strawberries, Raspberries, and Blueberries
• Dried figs
• Crackers
• Walnuts
• All the @lilys_sweets goodies: dark chocolate chips, white chocolate
chips, salted almond milk chocolate bar, hazelnut milk chocolate bar, confetti cake white chocolate bar, gummy bears, and peanut butter cups!
.
One of my favorite things about @lilys_sweets products is not only that they have no added sugar but they also offer fiber! Example: 2 peanut butter chocolate cups contain 7g fiber!
.
Make sure to check their store locator to find all their yummy products near you!

I get it.... we’re human. Most of us try to find things in common with someone when we talk to them (whether friend or stranger), a way to relate to each other.
.
If you are living with diabetes, you’ve likely heard a comment like the one above many times… Or maybe it’s that someone’s great aunt had her foot amputated because of diabetes 🙄😑 I get why people say it, but at the same time sometimes it just gets to be really discouraging 😔
.
So, next time you meet someone with diabetes or find out someone you’ve known for a while has diabetes… Tell them a story about someone you know who has diabetes and is doing amazing and thriving! 💃🏻 💯 And if you don’t know anyone... ask questions! It’s so much more encouraging. We hear enough diabetes complications and mortality comments/stories from our doctors. Try talking about people living their best life with diabetes instead! ❤️
