A healthier you: Adjusting your regimen

Congratulations!  You've taken the first steps towards taking control of your diet and your health.  Keep in mind that as your health improves, you and your health care team may need to make adjustments to your regimen.

Losing weight and/or following a diet with a lower glycemic load may allow you to reduce or even eliminate some of your medications.  (CAUTION!! Do not discontinue any medications except as advised by your doctor.)

Stay in touch with your health care team and share your progress with them so they can adjust your medication regimen as needed. If you've lost more than ten pounds and/or reached your goal weight, remember to re-evaluate your Daily Needs and update your Nutrition Data preference settings.
