That's wonderful and I really hope you continue a healthy plan of eating and activity! Keep it up!

How old is your daughter? Yes, you have to be aware when kids are young. I will tell you that my own doctor (whom I really liked and was a great doctor otherwise...) did not bring up anything about blood sugar awareness until about five years of "pre-diabetic" fasting results. I wasn't "pre" anything; I was diabetic. So, the earlier a person is aware of blood sugar creeping up, the better.

That's a sensitive and at the same time a tough age. Lots going on in their lives and their heads. I hope she is accepting to information. You might start with her doctor and, as you suggested, have some blood tests done and go from there. Good luck!

Great! I hope it stays that way and that she's interested in keeping healthy. I found that sharing what I've learned about my blood sugar, food and test results with my family has been a positive situation, too.

Thanks for keeping us updated!
