Becoming active
and exercising daily benefits almost anyone -- even those with a chronic health
condition. But you should always get your doctor's approval.
The American
Diabetes Association offers these suggestions for diabetics who want to start
an exercise program:
- Choose favorite activities, making
sure they're easy to fit into your day.
- Set small goals and start
gradually. Schedule a number of 10-minute mini-workouts throughout your
day, instead of one long workout.
- Find an exercise buddy to help
motivate you.
- Set specific, realistic goals. Be
sure to write them down.
