A Happy Day.....

  • I am beaming very happily today...... . Last November, after a couple of blood sugar tests, my Doctor tried to diagnose me as diabetic. . I did a lot of research, and got a second opinion, and was diagnosed by a specialist as having impaired glucose tolerance (pre-diabetes).......he advised me that if I lost some weight, I could reverse the condition...... .

    My doctor never accepted the specialist's view, and so we agreed to disagree.....

    Today, I got the results of a recent blood sugar test.....and I have been declared 'normal' ....well, only in as far as the blood sugar, of course.....

    So now I am really happily, and totally totally motivated

    And I am restraining myself from going back to the Doctor with a very very very smug 'I-told-you-so' look on my face.....
  • WOW! Now THAT is some great news!!! Congrats on all of your success and I'm so glad you're enjoying the blessing of improved health and well being! Way 2 go!!!
  • That is great news!
  • Claire, that is wonderful news!!! What a bonus that it adds to your motivation, that is great. Your hard work is really paying off, and you have something very important to show for it. Your health.
  • Yay Claire!!!! I'm so happy for you!!

  • Woohoo. That is super, although i think I would go back to the doc's with the smug I told you so.
  • Awesome news! Bah - doctor's what do they know?!
  • That is wonderful news! I am so happy for you!
  • Hey guys, thanks so much for all your encouragement and support! I am really making this journey for the health benefits, and its so good, and such a relief, to know that I am not heading in the diabetes direction.....
