Talking Let’s Sew Blue, Diabetes, and Sewing Plans

[@kimberlywiley7727]

Martika, Thanks for the frank and honest talk about your diabetes journey, and how we need to approach eating for our health in general whether we have diabetes or not. You point out much behavior change is necessary to cope with a chronic medical condition. Much needed and much appreciated information. The holidays provide us all with an opportunity to overeat, gorge. And, as you so aptly pointed out, we don’t always feel so good after eating all that food. Spending time with family is uppermost along with being mindful about our food choices. Love your knowledge and passion for this subject and look forward to your ebook. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 🍁 🍽

Thanks for my peptalks this month. Due to other sickness my diabetes numbers were through the roof this year, I didnt realise how it was all connected. Its hard to get them down but slowly getting there. My something blue is almost done. Hope to finish this weekend.

Bless your heart and I'm glad you're on the road to recovery. It is true that being ill will make your glucose numbers higher. Our bodies have so many ways of telling us what's going on. Keep taking care of YOU and I'm looking forward to seeing what you make!

I have the Mimi G book so might join you in January. I need to use my books more.

[@martikajmakes]

Come on! It's time to put this book to use!

[@MicheleStorkson]

I haven’t made anything from that book! I got it when it first came out! Looking forward to seeing what you make from it!

[@martikajmakes]

I think it's going to be really fun!

[@HeyGirlSewIt]

I also have the book and have not done anything with it. I may join you in sewing through the book.

[@martikajmakes]

Join in! I just don't want mine sitting and collecting dust when the looks are amazing!

My struggle with diabetes is working out. I just can't remain consistent.

[@martikajmakes]

I understand. It's not easy, but it's something that can be fun and enjoyable. I love working out to @growwithjo. She has some short and fun dance workouts that you might try. 🙂
