November is American Diabetes Month, and tomorrow is the first ever National Healthy Lunch Day.  The American Diabetes Association is encouraging people to pack a healthful lunch, and restaurants to offer healthful options on November 17.  The day is an attempt to raise awareness of the need to make good choices at mealtimes.  Use #HealthyLunchDay to join the conversation on Twitter.
