If you live with Type 2 Diabetes like I do, you know it isn’t easy. It’s so much more than eating right and exercising more. We have to balance medications, emotions, medical expenses, side effects, complications, judgments from outside the diabetic community, and sometimes judgments from inside it as well.

That’s why when Healthline asked if I’d help them launch their new support app just for those with Type 2 Diabetes, I was all in.

Here are just a few reasons I love it:

1. Each day you get matched with someone just like you! Based on the info you fill out when you join, the T2D Healthline app will match you with someone new every day. Once matched, you have the opportunity to message and make a new friend! So many of us go it alone with our diabetes management, and with T2D, we don’t have to do that anymore!
2. LIVE Chats! 5 days a week, right there in the app, we’ll have the chance to participate with leaders and influencers in the diabetic community about a variety of topics.
3. A wealth of information built right in-I can search for the latest info on diabetes self-care right there in the app. The latest topics, medical info, trends, meal plans, and even recipes are at my fingertips to discover.

The app has only been live for about a week and I find myself checking it OFTEN. Can’t wait to see you on there! Just click here to download and get started!
