A NO Bread Zone and I want Pizza! 3/21/2017 Greetings world, So my Visit to D-Rex wasn't so bad. My blood work for the most part was pretty good although my Blood Pressure is up a bit and when I came in I was just getting over the damn cold. Of course I was put back on B.P medicine and something to help me with this cold. I am hoping in July I will have lost enough weight to not need the B.P med any longer when I go back to see D-Rex. A couple of weeks ago I think... I started to stop eating bread completely to get my fasting numbers back in check. So far it is working nicely. This process should help me lose a bit of weight as well. I think once I am back to 100% health... I am going to start things off by using the treadmill again. I'm not ready for weights yet and it may be a while. I may need to go into physical therapy in order to get full use of my right arm again. Oh yes, I found out yesterday I have a Urinary track infection and I am now on antibiotics for a couple ...

Latest whine fest! 3/13/2017 Greetings all, So here is a recap on what I have been whining about. I gained my weight back, Blood pressure is up and fear of my A1c being too high again. I have not talked with D-Rex yet but I do have the results of last weeks blood work. As of right now my A1C is a 6.5.  As some of you know, 6.5 is a tiny bit out of acceptable range. Far, FAR better than I thought it was going to be. I don't think Rex is going to change my meds again so I will need to change my eating habits again. Or in my case... go BACK to eating as I know I should. This should bring that number down. I have not eaten and bread in the last few days and I should say... it isn't easy. I LOVE me some bread! By not allowing myself bread my fasting readings are starting to look much better. In time I hope I can lower my A1C and my weight by laying off all carbs. I see D-Rex this week so I will update you guys on how much I was yelled at or beaten. LOL! I know my tone with thi...

Falling Hard 3/2/2017 For the last few months I have in a way... given up on my health. My weight has gone up a great deal and my Blood sugar is up again. I'm due next week to do my blood work for my D-Rex visit the following week. I am pretty sure my A1C will be too high. I am sure he will give me hell for it. Rightfully so. I can't defend what ism't defend-able. The weight gain bothers me but it's my A1C that concerns me the most. I guess if that was true I would not have allowed myself to go back to where I started. I've fallen hard and this time I am not sure if I can get back up again. I understand how ridiculous I sound but I'm just trying to be honest and understand myself a bit. Perhaps I am just fucking lazy? I wish I knew. I'm sure some will read this and think I am seeking attention. Perhaps they may be right. It isn't my intention. i suppose I should just get over myself and get up and do what I need to do. All I can do is try.
