Dining with Diabetes
The Quicksand Area FCS agents presented Dining with Diabetes via zoom and mailed out lessons to adults with diabetes and/or family members responsible for meal planning and preparation.
Over 48 adults participated in the lessons. 75% of participants felt confident that they can keep their diabetes under control or help the person they care for keep their diabetes under control.
Some quotes from participants include: “I have learned how much to exercise- and- to avoid starchy vegetables, eat darker color vegetables and strive to do portion control”.
