New Year. New Habits. New Me.

New Knowledge! As my Christmas present, Steve gave me a Continuous Glucose Monitor. It couldn't have been a more perfect gift because what he gave me was really the gift of knowledge.

While I am not a diabetic, I teeter in and out of the lowest range of prediabetic. With a father who had Type-2 diabetes and me having been a gestational diabetic with gigantic son #1, I needed a tool that told me how what I ate was tolerated by my body. Everyone is different. Steve plans to monitor himself, too.
Keeping glucose levels stable is essential for preventing and/or managing diabetes and for maintaining overall well-being. With Stelo, I can keep an eye on my glucose 24/7 so I can uncover what works for me. I had no idea how certain foods affected my glucose. After the first two weeks, I have a pretty good handle on what not to eat (Rosa's Cantina and a diet coke are a big no-no).
The Stelo Glucose Biosensor is built on the most accurate continuous glucose monitoring technology from Dexcom and is simple and painless to apply. By sending glucose levels directly to my smartphone, it gives me just the right amount of information to work with. The app shows my glucose levels and target range which reveals patterns to empower me to make informed choices. It also has an incredible documentation component so I have a permanent record to reference.

At this point, I believe whether I become a diabetic is completely up to me. This non prescription tool is just what I need to change the direction of my negative levels. Knowledge really is power. What an absolutely perfect gift!
