Managing type 2 diabetes doesn’t mean you need to avoid eating fruit nor do you have to say no to going out for ice cream or that new Italian restaurant with friends.

Learn how to take control of your blood sugar in a realistic way without wasting a bunch of test strips. Finally figure out why those morning blood sugars have been running high even if it was lower the night before.

For better blood sugar, start here!

Does this sound familiar?

You leave the doctor’s office the moment you’re diagnosed, feeling lost, confused, scared…a lot of emotions. Then you’re told to take metformin and “avoid all sugar” and/or “any white foods”.

But here’s the thing, avoiding all sugar and white foods is not sound advice nor is it sustainable long-term. You might have been hoping to avoid taking metformin in the first place and managing diabetes with diet and exercise instead (it can be a reality!).

It can take hard work and discipline to get to the point where you can manage type 2 diabetes via lifestyle changes. I’m not going to say it’s a walk in the park. But what if you had all of the resources and tools you need at your fingertips to get you started on that path and make it easier?

You might have made some changes already

Ever since you were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, it’s really set a fire under you to get those blood sugars in a better range. But you can’t seem to get your numbers down even though you’ve cut out almost all carbohydrates.

In fact, you feel you’re missing out on:

  • enjoying that juicy summer fruit from the farmer’s market
  • having a slice of pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving
  • or just truly miss having a sandwich for lunch

Is this really what you need to do long-term to keep those blood sugar in check? No. In fact, it’s all about balance because we need to live to eat, not eat to live! So yes, you can have your cake and eat it too (in moderation).

The dietitian behind the course

Allow me to quickly introduce myself. I’m Carrie, a registered dietitian who has helped hundreds of people over the years with type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar and lower their A1c with the goal of reducing the need for medication. I’m also founder of the MEDication Freedom Method program which dives further into improving heart health along with blood sugar.

Among all of the people I’ve helped, I noticed a gap between people coming to me and that initial doctor‘s appointment…a lack of introduction to diabetes and detailed next steps needed to manage it long-term.

That’s why I created The Blood Sugar Navigator

This course will give you the foundations of managing type 2 diabetes so you can find the confidence to control your blood sugar for good. The goal is to put you on a path to lowering your A1c while also reducing the need for medication as much as possible.

  • Clear on what works best for you specifically (because everyone with diabetes is different in how they respond to different foods)

Not just for the newbies

This course isn’t just for those who are newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I’ve had several patients who have had uncontrolled blood sugar for YEARS before they came to me because they never had any formal education on how to manage it! So if that sounds familiar, then this course is exactly for you too!

FAQs

Unfortunately no. This course is not face-to-face counseling which is the only kind that insurance will cover.
Plan on purchasing a glucose meter (estimate about $50-$75 for meter + supplies) if your insurance plan doesn't cover it. Other than that, there are no other costs to complete the course.
It is highly recommended that you do. However, I understand that life comes up and you might need to put modules on hold. You have lifelong access to the course so you can either pick back up where you left off or if it's been a while, you can restart the course from the beginning if needed.
The course is held through a platform called Thinkific. In order to go through the modules, you'll need to create a free account to be able to log back in and access it at any time. Each module will contain several videos about 5 minutes or less as well as handouts and worksheets to guide you along the way.
In pre-diabetes, it's not often recommended to track blood sugar. So for this reason, I would not suggest this course in this case.
It has become very common for doctors to suggest not tracking blood sugar but rather take the medication and see them in 3 months. I believe everyone who has diabetes should have a glucose meter on hand (at the very least for emergencies) and know how to use it, which this course will go over. That being said, without knowing where your blood sugar is reading, it can be very difficult to get numbers under control. This is the primary reason I recommend every person with type 2 diabetes track their blood sugar. Once your blood sugar is under control, you can back off on tracking as often.
If you go through the first module and realize the course isn't what you thought it was, please reach out to me directly to discuss a possible refund. Unfortunately I will not be able to refund if the course has been completed (and yes, I can see how far you've gone through the course).
Absolutely! Feel free to reach out to me directly (my email is listed at the end of each video in the modules). You can also reach out to me via my "Contact Me" form on the website. I will do my best to get back to you within 48 hours, provided that I am in the office.
