BlueStar Diabetes

Many foods say “one serving. Some have the option of a half or a quarter. For most foods you need to have the label of the package to determine what a serving size is. This is very inconvenient, if you’re not near the food package or already disposed of it. Could you break it down more: Small Ex: an item says 1 srvg. The label says 1 srvg= 1 tblsp. If you only had 2 tsp, there is no choice except 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 etc. -none of which equal 2 tsp.

BlueStar has literally saved my life. It keeps me accountable for my blood sugar levels, weight, blood pressure and tracking my food. I started using the app in February. Six months later, my A1c went from 8.4 to 6.8. And I lost almost 30 lbs. I enjoy the most encouraging messages after an entry. Even if you have been bad, it still gives positive feedback. I paired this app with the FreeStyle Libre Glucose Sensor. It so easy to take your blood sugar and immediately put it in the BlueStar app. Thank you so much for providing this service.

Before my use of Blue Star I could not seem to get my glucose level under control. With a change in Meds and the use of BlueStar my glucose level has diminished. The benefits of using Blue Star is that I get immediate feedback whether my glucose level is in target, high or low. I am given an explanation for the rational behind that glucose level. At times I have eaten too much carbs resulting in a high glucose level. Other times I may have exercised too long which caused my glucose to go too low. The quick response is the thing I like most about BlueStar. Right after getting a glucose test result; thru BlueStar I also get feedback on the possible causes of that level. Furthermore when my glucose is in target I get a statement that rewards me for the great outcome. I am finally getting my glucose level in target and the thing I like best is that I now understand my role in controlling my glucose levels.
