COVID 19, Type 2 Diabetes and Retirement!
What do all these have in common? A challenge!
What happens when you have all three challenges at once? An opportunity to redefine your life and transform yourself into the person you need to be.
I was working from home for 2 years during the pandemic. No walks to the bus, no grocery shopping in person, no going anywhere there were other people and still eating the same amount as before. What happened was I ended up with an AIC of 12+. Also around the same time I retired early from my 9-5 job and had to relearn how to be social after the pandemic ended.
Difficult enough if one of these life events happens to you never mind three of them all at once. I had to adapt and I had to change. My life was about to be very different from what I was used to.
I was no longer working after 50 years of employment. I had just turned 62. And now in my mind I thought I would never be able to eat the way I wanted to ever again for fear of raising blood sugar levels.
Well things could not have been farther from the truth! This channel was created to document my journey on rediscovering good, healthy food, exercise and enjoying my retirement and travelling like I had always loved.
Please join me on my journey of discovery that life after 60 with a diabetes diagnosis can be the best thing to ever happen to you.
