Having passed one holiday this fall, we have several more approaching. Some holiday traditions include eating lots of high calorie/carb foods. Do your patients get concerned about blood glucose control at this time of year? What do they talk about doing to "keep in control"? Our hospital's wellness program initiated a "Ho Ho Hold it Down for the Holidays". This is an awareness program to hold your weight "even" during the holiday's. Don't worry about losing anything, just keep it stable. What other ideas do you give your patients at this time of year to help with blood glucose control? Thanks for sharing any thoughts you have on this topic.
