Take Charge of Your Type 2 Diabetes Journey
Join a Supportive Education Group Designed to Help You Thrive Without Judgment
Managing type 2 diabetes doesn’t have to mean constant stress or feeling alone. Our Type 2 Diabetes Education Group is here to empower you with practical tools, science-based information, and a compassionate community so you can confidently take control of your health—without focusing on weight as a measure of success.
What you will learn & gain:
Understand Your Diagnosis: Get clear, straightforward explanations of type 2 diabetes and what it means for your health.
Build a Balanced Approach to Eating: Learn how to manage blood sugar and nourish your body without restrictive diets or guilt.
Feel Confident in Your Choices: Gain strategies for handling real-life situations like eating out, grocery shopping, and social gatherings.
Take Small Steps with Big Impact: Explore habits like mindful movement, stress reduction, and sleep improvement to support long-term well-being.
Why this group stands out:
Judgment-Free Zone: This program is weight-inclusive, meaning our focus is on health-promoting behaviors, not the number on the scale. Everyone is welcome, regardless of body size.
Practical Guidance You Can Use Immediately: Walk away with tools and knowledge you can apply to everyday life.
A Community of Support: Share and learn with others who understand your experiences.
Your Facilitator:
Hi! I am Donetta Floyd, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist from Henderson, NC. I am a proud Aggie and Eagle alum attending rival Historically Black Universities. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from North Carolina A&T State University and Master of Science degree in Nutritional Sciences from North Carolina Central University.
I am a mom, sister, daughter, niece, cousin, and friend. I love spending time with family and friends, creating new memories. I like game nights, outdoor activities, sports, cookouts, and scratch-made banana pudding. I love all things nutrition and one of my passions is working with individuals living with diabetes. I believe it is possible to be in good health regardless of a person’s weight or body size. I believe people can thrive while living with health conditions. I believe food is nourishment to the body and should be enjoyed socially and culturally. I love to meet people where they are on their journey.
You are empowered to prosper on your journey of managing diabetes. Community awaits you! I hope to meet you soon and join the journey of managing diabetes with you!
