Tracking doesn’t fail from lack of willpower. It fails from scattered systems.

A diagnosis comes with pamphlets and a prescription. It doesn’t come with a proper place to track everything in one spot. So most people end up building one anyway — badly.

“A missed reading here, a symptom you meant to mention and forgot, a medication log that only exists in memory. That’s not a character flaw — it’s a systems problem.”
  • Notes app entries that vanish when you need them most
  • Sticky notes that fall out of your bag
  • Trying to reconstruct three weeks of data in a ten-minute appointment
  • Feeling behind the moment you miss a day in a dated planner

Different situations. Same underlying friction.

This planner was built to remove the friction that makes tracking fall apart for each of these groups.

🆕

Newly diagnosed

Overwhelmed. No idea where to start tracking. A folder of pamphlets isn’t a system.

🧮

Type 1

The daily mental math of insulin, carbs and activity is exhausting to hold in your head.

📈

Type 2

Building tracking habits that actually stick long-term is hard. Generic trackers don’t map to real management.

👀

Pre-diabetic

Anxious about the numbers. You want to catch patterns before a diagnosis.

🤰

Gestational

Tight timeline. Tracking needs to be fast and simple during pregnancy.

👪

Caregivers & parents

You’re tracking on someone else’s behalf. You need clarity to relay accurate information.

A diabetes planner you’ll actually open every day

Not a repackaged habit tracker with “diabetes” in the title. Built specifically around the tracking diabetes management actually requires.

Hyperlinked, not endless scrolling

30 pages. Tap a tab in the sidebar, land exactly where you need. One tap away.

Undated by design

Start any day. Duplicate pages as you go. No guilt loop from empty dated pages.

Calm, not clinical

Soft teal-green design that feels like something you want to reach for — not a hospital form.

Everything you need to track — nothing you don’t

Open space for your own targets, medications and care team contacts. You and your doctor fill it in.

Home dashboard

Tap-to-navigate home dashboard

Everything in one calm place. Open any section with a single tap — or use the persistent sidebar tabs anytime.

Daily Glucose Log

Daily glucose log with range key

Time, reading, units, before/after meals, feeling and notes. Quick summary boxes for lowest, highest, average + what affected you today.

Weekly overview

Your week at a glance

Seven days side-by-side for glucose, meds taken and exercise. Space for this week’s focus, patterns noticed and win of the week.

Meal planning grid

7-day meal planning grid

Plan ahead, then log what actually happened. Batch prep ideas, new foods to try and swaps that worked — all on one page.

Action Plan for lows and highs

Action plan for lows & highs

Built to fill in with your care team. Signs you might notice + exact steps they want you to take. Your guidance, not generic advice.

Monthly review and trends

Monthly review & trends

Weekly average glucose chart, this month’s numbers (A1C, averages), wins, challenges, focus next month and med changes.

Also includes: Type reference guide · Medication log · Exercise tracker · Symptom log · Appointment notes · 12 undated monthly calendars · Grocery list · Notes pages

A dated planner expires. This one grows with you.

Buy it in January, miss a week in March, and the empty pages start to feel like evidence of failure instead of a tool. That single design choice removes the guilt loop that kills most tracking habits.

You’re not behind. There’s no behind. There’s just today’s page.

FAQ

Is this medical advice?
No. This is a tracking and organization tool only. It will not tell you what your glucose targets should be or what medication to take. Those decisions stay with your doctor or diabetes educator. What it does is give those conversations something concrete to work from instead of memory.
Does it work with GoodNotes and Notability?
Yes. It is a hyperlinked PDF designed specifically for GoodNotes, Notability and similar apps on iPad. You can also open it on any device that reads PDFs, or print the pages you want.
Is it dated? What if I start mid-year or miss weeks?
It is completely undated. Start on any day of any year. Duplicate daily and weekly pages as you need them. Missing a week doesn’t create a trail of empty “failed” pages — there’s simply no “behind.”
Can I use this if I’m newly diagnosed / Type 1 / Type 2 / pre-diabetic / gestational / a caregiver?
Yes. One structure works for all of these. You fill in your own type, targets, medications and care team details. The Action Plan page is designed to be completed with your clinician so it reflects their specific guidance.
How many pages is it and what’s included?
30 pages. Includes home dashboard, personal info & targets, diabetes type reference, action plan for lows/highs, 12 monthly calendars, weekly overview, meal planning grid, daily glucose log, meals & carbs, medications, exercise, symptoms, appointments, grocery list, monthly review with trend chart, and notes pages.
Can I print it?
Yes. The pages are clean and print-friendly. Many people use a hybrid approach — digital for daily logging on iPad, printed pages for certain sections or for sharing with a care team.
Is there a subscription or ongoing fee?
No. One payment of $12.99. The planner is yours to keep and use indefinitely. Duplicate pages as needed for as long as you want to track.

Give yourself one calm place to track.

Patterns become visible. Conversations with your care team get easier. Tracking stops being a scattered chore and starts being a steady system.
