When I was diagnosed (with type 2 diabetes) I was advised to eat less and avoid sugar. I tried to follow this advice, but I was always hungry and my blood sugar level continued to fluctuate up and down. This class changed our lives. Five days a week we are eating balanced plates, and my blood sugar level is now stable. You taught me how, thank you!
