In your quest for better health, you may need all of the help you can get. It’s not a coincidence most adults struggle with their well-being.

We live in a time where it’s easy to become complacent with what matters the most. We give in to temptations. We submit to laziness.

Ultimately, unless a cataclysmic event inspiring the necessary change occurs, we tend to resume our indiscretions.

If you’re overweight, it’s not because your body is predisposed to storing more fat. Nor is it because you have “fat genes.” Rather, it’s because you’ve made the wrong choices time and time again. But don’t fret. If you played a role in your weight gain, then you can certainly take charge of your weight loss.

The same principle applies to Type 2 diabetes. If you’re committed, you can overcome the disease that is supposed to be with you for life.

In your quest to treat these conditions, it pays to make little changes one at a time. The small adjustments you make to your lifestyle allow you to create momentum. When you finally establish some consistency, you’ll be firing on all cylinders. You’ll treat your conditions while simultaneously improving your well-being.

You may be wondering what are some of the changes that you can make to get your health back on track.

1. Quit all forms of snacking

2. Eat more fruits and vegetables

3. No white bread, pasta, or rice for the time being. Yes to whole grains and oats

4. No eating after 6 PM. If you can go to bed on an empty stomach, your body will burn fat overnight

5. Healthy fat sources only (in moderation); mixed nuts, peanut butter, coconut oil, olives, avocados are great

6. Exercise, at least, three times a week. The type of physical activity you do is irrelevant. What’s important is for you to get moving

This list is basic but the actions themselves are powerful, especially when they are carried out together.

Momentum is a beautiful thing.

Once you start making progress, it will be easier to maintain your efforts. Your new habits, assuming you’ve solidified them, will then be there to stay.

Never underestimate what small changes in your life can do for your health in the long run.

Although managing your disease can be very challenging, Type 2 diabetes is not a condition you must just live with. You can make simple changes to your daily routine and lower both your weight and your blood sugar levels. Hang in there, the longer you do it, the easier it gets.
