Spring Training Video Series
This past Friday, March 31st, we completed the diaVerge 15 day Spring Training Video Series.
We brought you a short video every weekday for three weeks, discussing one aspect of low carb eating: tips, tricks, mindset, goal setting and so much more.
If you missed it, you can find these all posted on the diaVerge Facebook page and on the diaVerge Youtube playlist.
Since I included additional information and links many of the videos, we're adding the 15 day series here so you can access each video at a glance and view the topics that are of interest to you.

And as always, join us on Facebook and Instagram for tons of unique daily content and real life examples of low carb diabetes management.
