Hi Friends!
 
During National Diabetes Awareness Month, don’t forget to let us know what you have been doing to take action! 
 
Next week is Thanksgiving and that means the holiday season is just around the corner! The holidays can be stressful, so planning ahead is very important, especially when you have type 1 diabetes! Here are 5 holiday forums to help you stay focused and get you through:
 
Staying in charge during the holidays
Get togethers, school and work parties stressing you out? Taking charge of your health during the holidays can help you to be calm and focused. How do you get through this time of the year?
 
Holiday Traditions
Spending time with family and doing fun traditional type activities can be great for blood sugars! Do you have any fun, serious or even wacky traditions?  Share them with us!
 
Favorite D-Friendly Recipes
Are you eating healthy this Thanksgiving? What are you making that doesn’t cause a blood sugar spike? Share your favorite d-friendly recipe with us!
 
Thanksgiving Blood Sugars
A fun activity that we have here on T1Nation is posting our before and after Thanksgiving blood sugars! After all that eating all day you will be surprised at the results! Don’t forget to post yours!
 
T1D For a Day
This time of the year is the perfect time to let people know what it is like to live with diabetes. If you have not done so already, tell your friends and family to sign up for the T1D for a Day text challenge by texting T1D4ADAY to 63566 and they will be helping JDRF create a world without T1D!
