If you read ONE post this month, let it be this one:
➡️ Get screened.

One simple blood test can change — and save — your life.

Diabetes is often silent until complications occur.
Screening identifies problems before damage happens.

If you have:
🔹 A family history
🔹 Excess weight
🔹 High blood pressure
🔹 PCOS
🔹 History of gestational diabetes
🔹 Or are African American, Latinx, Native, or Asian American

…you should be checking labs every year.

WAMC offers diabetes screening, prevention, treatment, and personalized care.
Your journey to better health starts with one step — let’s take it together. 💙

The biggest myth?
“That diabetes just happens.”
Wrong.
There are powerful steps you can take to protect yourself.

Daily prevention habits include:
✔ Prioritize protein
✔ Reduce added sugar
✔ Move 20–30 minutes a day
✔ Manage stress
✔ Get 7–8 hrs of sleep
✔ Maintain a healthy weight
✔ Stay hydrated
✔ Get labs yearly

Small changes = BIG long-term impact.
If you need guidance, WAMC is here with science-based obesity care and personalized treatment plans.

Did you know that insulin resistance is the bridge between excess weight and diabetes?
Here’s what happens ⤵️

When fat cells grow, they become resistant to insulin.
Insulin can’t push sugar into the cells as easily.
Your blood sugar rises.
Your pancreas works overtime.
Eventually… diabetes develops.

This is why weight loss — even a small amount — has such a powerful impact on blood sugar control.

GLP-1 medications, nutrition counseling, and metabolic support at WAMC target the ROOT cause: insulin resistance.

Treat the cause, not the symptoms. 💙

11/27/2025

Prediabetes is NOT a life sentence — it is an opportunity.
An opportunity to change direction.
An opportunity to prevent complications.
An opportunity to reclaim your health.

With early intervention, prediabetes is reversible in many cases.
Research shows even a 5–10% weight reduction can dramatically improve insulin sensitivity.

If your doctor has told you that you are “borderline”…
That’s not a reason to panic — it’s a reason to take action. 💙

WAMC can help you create a personalized plan to prevent diabetes before it starts.

11/26/2025

Diabetes isn’t “just high sugar.”
When left untreated, it affects almost every organ.

Possible complications of uncontrolled diabetes:
❤️ Heart disease
🧠 Stroke
👁 Vision loss
🧵 Nerve damage
🦶 Foot ulcers
🩺 Kidney failure
🦷 Gum disease
🧠 Memory decline

This is why early detection matters.
THIS is why taking your medications matters.
THIS is why regular follow-ups matter.

You deserve to protect your health, your future, and your quality of life.
WAMC is here to help you take control — not tomorrow, but today. 💙

11/25/2025

Another important diabetes lab is your fasting blood glucose (FBG) — your blood sugar first thing in the morning before eating.

FBG ranges:
🔹 Normal: 70–99
🔹 Prediabetes: 100–125
🔹 Diabetes: 126+

If your morning sugar is consistently above 100, your body is having trouble managing insulin.
That’s your early warning sign.

And the BEST time to intervene?
Before diabetes fully develops.

Come get screened at WAMC — simple labs = life-changing information. 💙

11/24/2025

Your A1C is one of the most important labs you can check for diabetes.
But what does it actually mean?

A1C tells us your average blood sugar over 3 months.

Here’s the breakdown:
🔹 Normal: < 5.7%
🔹 Prediabetes: 5.7–6.4%
🔹 Diabetes: ≥ 6.5%

Higher A1C = higher risk of complications.
But guess what?
A1C can improve with treatment, nutrition, weight management, and medications like GLP-1s when appropriate.

If you haven’t had your A1C checked in the last 12 months, now is the time.
Early numbers lead to early action — and early action leads to better outcomes. 💙

11/23/2025

Did you know your family history can increase your risk of diabetes by up to 3x?

If a parent, grandparent, or sibling has diabetes or prediabetes, you’re more likely to develop it too.
This does not mean it’s guaranteed — it means you have the power to get ahead of it.

Here’s what to do if diabetes runs in your family:
✔ Get yearly A1C screenings
✔ Maintain a healthy weight
✔ Prioritize protein + movement
✔ Manage stress
✔ Be aggressive about prevention

Generational patterns don’t have to become your reality.
At WAMC, we help you break the cycle — starting with screening, education, and lifestyle support. 💙

11/22/2025

Diabetes often develops quietly, and many people don’t realize they have it until complications appear.
Know the warning signs ⤵️

🔹 Extreme thirst
🔹 Frequent urination
🔹 Blurry vision
🔹 Fatigue
🔹 Slow-healing wounds
🔹 Numbness or tingling in hands/feet
🔹 Unexplained weight loss
🔹 Frequent infections

Even mild symptoms should not be ignored — early detection prevents kidney disease, heart disease, and nerve damage.

If you’re experiencing any of these, book a screening with Weight A Minute Clinic. Your body is talking. Let’s listen early. 💙

11/21/2025

November is Diabetes Awareness Month, and at Weight A Minute Clinic, we’re shining a light on something that affects 1 in 10 adults in the U.S.

Diabetes isn't just about sugar — it’s about your heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves, hormones, and long-term wellness.
The GOOD news?
Diabetes is treatable, manageable, and often preventable with the right care plan.

This month, we’ll be sharing tips, symptoms to watch for, lab interpretation, and ways to stay ahead of this chronic condition.
Your health matters. Early action saves lives. 💙

Your wellness goals don’t disappear just because the holidays arrive.
They just require a little more intention.

This season tends to challenge our routines — but with structure, support, and consistency, you can absolutely enjoy celebrations and stay focused.

✨ Prioritize sleep
✨ Eat balanced meals
✨ Move daily (even 10 minutes counts!)
✨ Hydrate like it’s your job
✨ Manage stress proactively
✨ Don’t skip meals to “save up”

You deserve to feel good THROUGH the holidays, not just after them.

WAMC is here to guide you the whole way.

Most people gain 1–5 lbs between November and January… but not because of holiday food.

The REAL reasons?
• Less structure
• More emotional eating
• More events
• Less sleep
• More alcohol
• “I’ll start next year” mindset

The weight gain isn’t inevitable — it’s predictable. Which means it’s preventable.

You don’t need extreme dieting, restriction, or guilt.

You need awareness. Education. Support. And a clear strategy.
WAMC is here to help you enjoy the holidays while protecting your goals.

Let’s build a plan that works WITH the season, not against it.
