Ok so it has been a month since I had my diabetes test done and found out my blood sugar was high. Not super high but high enough that the Dr was concerned. So I have been following a diabetic diet. ( low carbs low sugars ) Obviously lower calories. I am happy to report that my blood sugar has been lower the past few days alot lower then when I started. I do the whole finger poking thing like 6 times a day and its much better. Also an added bonus is I officially hit a weight loss of drum roll...................................................................15 lbs. Not bad not bad at all. I say its a bonus because I didnt go into this trying to loose weight. Although the Dr did recommend that I loose weight. So yes the goal was loose weight however I wanted to go into this with the mind set to get healthy. Thats the main goal. So Im very happy and it hasnt been to terribly hard really. Yes there are times Id give my right leg for some garlic toast or a slice of pizza a huge plate of nachos.......yummmmmmmmmmm oh anyway sorry lost my train of thought. The alternative to eating healthier is having diabetes, which runs in my family. My parents my brother etc. I dont want that. I would rather not eat the pizza and nachos and all that good stuff. So Ill stick with the lean cusine meals and the cheese and eggs and olives and pickles and beef summer sausage and cream of wheat and salads.....well you get the picture!!!
