In Episode 157 I had the pleasure of interviewing a wonderful woman named Cindy Swanson from Rockport, Illinois who is a morning on-air announcer at a Christian music station there. Why did I interview Cindy? Because in 2007 she was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and has been on a journey ever since to control that disease through diet. Listen to this newbie diabetic as she talks about how she reacted to this diagnosis and what led her ultimately to carbohydrate restriction. What an amazing story and I hope you are inspired by Cindy’s story!
It’s a scary thing going through hearing you have diabetes for the first time and Cindy Swanson is a great example of the timeline of what happens going through the anger and frustration about getting this disease, her plan of action for educating herself about this disease, and why she ultimately was led to livin’ la vida low-carb as a means for controlling her blood sugars. Millions of brand new people go through this each year which is why I continue to talk about diabetes and low-carb so passionately. I’m so grateful for Cindy’s candidness about her own story as she has lost over 50 pounds and doing what she has to do to beat her diabetes!
How about that Cindy Swanson? Her diabetes journey is probably not that different from others and yet she found the way to control hers while others still rely on medications and insulin. Check out her “Notes In The Key Of Life” blog and even listen to her on 101QFL Positive Hit Radio in Rockford, IL or online.
