So I went to the doc last Thursday about my diabetes. The results were that my meter is fine and my body is either rejecting my meds or I am fighting some major virus. Since I have been feeling fine the virus got ruled out. So the doc changed my meds around and I now have to take them at night and in the morning. I have noticed in the past that my tolerance for medication increases over time and was wondering if that was the case here. The doc said that is a chance so we will have to monitor it. I have to go back in a month and we will see how things are going. This morning would be the first time that I have a reading under 200; it was 186 ( normal range is 80-130 for a diabetic). So we shall see how it goes.
I have now changed my diet and am trying to eat healthier. The first things that I have stopped doing is drinking soda and alcohol. I have heard that if you stop drinking soda you will lose a few pounds just from that. Now the big thing is to get my family to change their eating style as well. I know one of the hardest things for me is going into a convenient store. I am a sucker for the Little Debbie chocolate pies. That is definitely my weakness! I do have to say that I have done pretty well lately. Also fast food is a hard place to eat at. I know they have salads, but you can eat them only so much....guess I need to start really cutting that out of my diet as well. On another note it does not look like I will be doing siding any longer...the owner of the company is well being a dick. He does not think he is making enough money, which is crap because we have seen what each job has costed, but oh well. That means that I can hit the gym. So here is to shedding some pounds and living a healthier me!
