Montreal Lake Diabetes Wellness Group

Calling all ladies and female youth! Come get some fun exercise and learn how to salsa dance! Im going to trial a session between now and Christmas.

Location change! Our diabetes group will be meeting at the health center today at 330 (not the library). Hope to see you then.

Reminder! Diabetes support group Tuesday June 7 at 330 at the library. Prizes and snacks available.

Tomorrow begins the first day of ML diabetes screening event for all of June and July. Diabetes screening is for anyone over the age of 8 who DOESN'T have diabetes, to see if they actually do have it. It is common for people, especially youth, to have no symptoms at all and still have diabetes. To be screened, book an appointment at the ML clinic with Alanna at the lab, and don't eat or drink for 8 hours prior to the test. Sips of water are ok, but not coffee or tea. Diabetes screening is really important because the earlier diabetes is diagnosed, the sooner it can be treated, and the longer people will live a long healthy life. A healthy lifestyle of eating healthy and exercising is the best way to prevent and treat diabetes! AND, for these 2 months, a $25 food voucher will be given to the Ne He Throw store for anyone who is screened. Thank you to all participants in taking care of your health!

Good morning!
Our first diabetes group this year is FINALLY coming! We are going to talk all about Diabetes Myths and Truths by playing a game. We will meet Tuesday May 10 at 330 in the library. Snacks, drinks, and prizes provided. Contact Janet Roberts or Erica Moir at the clinic for any more info, or if you need a ride. Hope to see you there ☺️

I havent posted much here yet, so here is just a little encouragement for the day! Having diabete can be overwhelming for many. One small thing to take care of yourself goes a long way.

Welcome to the Montreal Lake Diabetes Wellness Page. Here you will find information on diabetes, online competitions, draws, and quizzes. Anyone can join, including those without diabetes. Please note that recommendations for individual health management will not be given out over the Facebook chat. Please book an appointment for this at the clinic!
