I have done Atkins and keto before and I always know what I SHOULD be eating, but the problem was making myself do it … and not fall off the wagon. I’m here to tell you, there’s nothing like real time data to keep you honest! I can immediately see the effect on my blood sugar when I eat foods that are not healthy for me to have right now. Within the first 10 days, I lowered my average daily blood glucose 25 points to the point where I was consistently staying within normal range every day. My resting heart rate has dropped nearly 10 bpm. My blood pressure has gone down, all of this reversal and just a few short weeks. I can also see the immediate effect of getting moving on my blood sugar- it blunts the spike and helps it drop back to baseline much faster than if I am sedentary. And it really does not take much movement to do that- just vacuuming the house and other chores work, besides getting outside for a walk.The app support and coach support is great, lots of nutrition, great coaches, and they keep improving it. I am hopeful that once I heal my metabolism more “off-limits“ foods will be added to my list. I’ve already had some added for me and I’ve just been on this program for about a month! Looking forward to reversing my T2D! My doctor never did anything like this for me. Thank you BCBS TX for recommending it- it is a life-changer. (And yes I am also down 7 lbs without counting a single calorie or macro or even trying anything except staying on the “green” list!)

This app is thru my insurance and it has been a God send. At 60 years of age , having tried every diet there is on the planet. This is the only program that has helped me lose weight. I’ve lost close to 14 pounds in one month and the difference is I get to see in real time what and how food is affecting my body and there’s a lot of encouragement. There’s a lot of Supplies. There’s a lot of help. There’s a lot of guidance. This app is new and different and it’s exciting and I would recommend it to anybody whether you have diabetes or not, it’s good to repair your metabolism and get you back on track. It’s not hard. You get a free membership to Peloton, and they hook you up with sensors, a scale, vitamins, etc. You have access to hundreds of recipes and tips. I don’t know how this could be more supportive than what it already is. My only criticisms of it is it doesn’t allow you to enter your measurements, because that is a big part of losing weight is watching your measurements decrease as you lose the weight. So I feel like they should add that in. They are not real good about explanation with the set up. It was really difficult to get the process going on my phone. There were things that I didn’t understand and so I had to reach out to the help column to get help in trying to set up my monitor but once I got everything set up, it was wonderful. It’s going smoothly, flowing smoothly, and I am continuing to lose weight daily as well as develop muscle mass. So this is really exciting. I’ve already lost a pant size and I’m getting closer to my goal every day I would highly recommend this app.

Since the update when they decided to put the CGM sensor reading on the main screen, it has been a pain. I am already forced to have the stello app open and running while wearing the sensor now I have to also see what my blood sugar is when I’m on the app I don’t need to see my blood sugar twice in a period of two minutes. I liked when it was on the optional screen to go click into it and see what it was if I wanted to see it again. I am not diabetic or pre-diabetes so I don’t need to monitor my blood sugar like that; again I have the stello app open 24 seven on my phone in order for it to run. I am not allowed to close it. I don’t need to see it when I open twin.

I have always been a generally healthy person. But over the years as age crept in in making poor choices my health was declining, making more visits to the doctor feeling horrible, trying everything but nothing worked. I was offered the Twin Health program and I am so thankful. I finally am in tune with my body and how diet affects your overall health and well-being. My fibromyalgia pain is about 80% gone. I have more energy and blood pressure has came down so now I’m only on two medication’s instead of four. I have learned a lot of new recipes and even made them for my family. I can’t thank Twin Health and their staff for this program.
