Why did you take the Diabesity class and did it meet your expectations?
“As a Type II diabetic there were two reasons why I decided to take the class. The first was to lose weight and the second was to stabilize my blood sugars which had been too high for too long.”
How did you respond to the program?
“During the six week program I have lost about 18 pounds which I hope to continue to a goal of 28 pounds. More important than the weight loss was the program’s effect on my blood sugars which have come down to very good levels (81-90). These stabilized blood sugars have allowed me to reduce my insulin by 65 units/day. Besides my reduction in insulin dosage I have almost eliminated my need for the acid-reducing medication nexium. I have only taken three doses in the last four weeks. This class not only met but exceeded my expectations.” 62 year-old male
