Hi Rosey . . . looks like everybody has gone into hibernation again . . . hopefully things will pick up next week. Sorry to hear you didn't sleep well and your right that could very well explain your 111. I had a fairly good BS day myself . . . from 3.6 (65) in the am to 6.8 (122) just now. Wish I could get it to stay a little more even throughout the day. I'll probably have to admit the doctor is right and start splitting the insulin into two doses a day instead of the one at bedtime. I really do not want more needle pricks; but we all have to do what we have to do.
Hope you have a good night tonight. See you tomorrow. :carrot: |
Hi all. :)
Been checking the board, just haven't been posting.... Crazy night. My '75 jeep had an electrical fire: luckily we caught it before it got too out of control. She'll have some scars and a bunch of electrical work to be done, but she's fixable (so my dad thinks). DF is a little mad, but what else can you do? Luckily we were home when it happened. Talk more tomorrow! Hugs, |
Good morning everyone,
Had a great weekend,not food wise. Did a three day craft show,yesterday our son and family were ther helping us:hug: So we got to spend time with them. All the crafters enjoyed watching our 17 month old grandaughter. Won't be posting for awhile leaving on vacation in the morning for five days to St IgnaceMi for a classic car show. Everyone be good. Judy S:carrot: |
Josian . . . good luck with the truck repairs. Glad it wasn't more serious. :hug:
Judy . . . sounds like the craft show was lots of fun. Have a good trip and we'll look forward to seeing you when you are back. :hug: Not too much new in my world . . . we're having another gorgeous sunny day with a lovely (almost too lovely) cool breeze to keep the heat and humidity at bay. I'd better get moving and get some errands run or I'll be eating 'bad stuff' for dinner. Have to have all my salad fixings in the house, or I get into trouble. Have a great day, gang. See you soon. Keep moving and shaking and heading in the downward direction until I see you again. :carrot: |

Just thought I would drop in and say hello. I had a doctor's appointment today and my A1c was 9%...down from 14.4% the end of March! He told me that holding my weight consistent was actually a loss, since most people gain as the A1c comes down. I hope he was not just humoring me! He also suggested Byetta...so I am going to try it.
ROSEY: My husband is like that...he just can't seem to be quiet in the morning! I can sleep through it sometimes, but not usually. He seems to be slamming drawers, doors... :rolleyes: MEOWEE: What are your temps like this time of year? In my imagination, Nova Scotia is gorgeous... It is mountainous isn't it? Perhaps I need to come see it sometime! |
Hi, all. Been very busy at work so didn't have much time to check in and post. Had a bad few days due to a problem with my knee. Having had to walk down and up 6 flights several times the previous weekend took it's toll on my knees, one knee in particular. Thursday and Friday I was in extreme pain, so I stayed in on the weekend and fortunately the pain has gone away. The stairs aggravated a problem I've been having with the orthotic on one foot which is doing something to throw my knee out. See the podiatrist next week. Oy vey! See the endo tomorrow and I find out the results of my A1c. I'm still stressed out about the landlord thing but my sls have come down a little, although still too high. It guess it will be back to the Actos.
Rosey - I hope you got your nap. You need to be brighteyed and bushy tailed for your company. That's funny about your flower colors. Kind of a garish combo of colors, but flowers are pretty anyway. Monet - glad to see your post. We've come up in the world to have our very own moderator! Gotta go home. |
Morning all . . . our day is pretty overcast . . . and the humidity is going up . . . oh well, I guess we do have to have summer. :(
Rosey . . . :hug: Good thing you like purple and mixed with yellow . . . well since it was too cold for a good show of flowers at Easter, I guess there's no time like the present. :dizzy: Sounds like you are getting very excited about the Company. Try to control yourself before you start re-cleaning everything again. Monet . . . :hug: Since I'm originally from Ontario, I can say Nova Scotia is beautiful without sounding like I'm bragging. I don't think of it as particularly mountainous although there are definitely some sections of very rocky coastline, especially around Cape Breton. How's the weather . . . well, compared to Ontario, I like it much better. In the summer we usually manage mid-seventies to mid-eighties and we only get one or two weeks of really bad humidity throughout the season. Nice fresh ocean breezes usually keep things fairly comfy. (In the winter, we call those breezes 'gale-force-winds' ;) ) Let me put it this way, I've lived here about 12 years now without an air conditioned house and only have a few nights a year when the heat really keeps me awake. I would never want to try to live in Ontario without central air. Rosetta . . . :hug: Glad things are a little calmer for you although I am sorry to hear about the knee problems. Actos is a good med but it is unfortunate it doesn't do good things for weight control. Hace a great day, gang. Keep moving and shaking and heading in the downward direction. see you soon. :carrot: |
Hi all :)
My procedure went well last Wednesday, except that I got an infection and it hurt to sit for a couple of days. Started antibiotics and finally felt better on Sunday. Went to Curves this morning, and did 2 of my 3 rotations so not too bad. I didn't want to over do it. I need to get my A1c checked... it's been almost a year. eek. bad girl. Gotta run! |
Hi, all. Back from the endo. My A1c is 6.3, much higher than last Fall, but still just under the acceptable level. Also, my microalbumin has come down, which I'm thankful for. He didn't put me on the Actos because I still want to try to lose weight. Will try to be better with my diet. Going to the gym tonight and hope that the knee won't bother me.
Meowee - Nova Scotia seems like my kind of place. Would love to live somewhere closer to nature than I do now. Josian - get that A1c test soon. We've having warm weather but it's still tolerable. Wish I were in the mountains or in a quiet place by the sea. Sigh. |

Checking in with my new buds... :) I start Byetta this evening before dinner. I am a bit nervous. Not sure if it is anticipation or fear! :) I just hope it helps as much as I have read it has done for others.
I have been reading in my Gretchen Becker book. I need to find a new one to read when I am done with it..which will be soon. I think I will try ROSEY's recommendation of Diabetes for Dummies.... |
Morning!
Had a scare with the Skye pup yesterday: took her to the vet, as she had an accident in the house and it had mucous and other nasties...plus she was drinking lots of water, lethargic... did an xray, no signs of foreign matter or a blockage, so they sent me home with some fiber to finish cleaning out her system, told me to keep an eye on her... BG doing great at 126 despite yesterdays stress. Hugs, |
Hey everyone! I am really excited! The Byetta has been really great so far. I have felt a little nauseous, but nothing bad at all. I am trying to be careful what I eat and how much. My glucose levels have been just about perfect! I am just amazed! I did not get my walk in this morning, due to a UTI flaring up, so I took a nap instead. I feel better now, the UTI is better, and my bg levels are better than if I had gone for the walk. I plan to get in the pool this afternoon and do some water jogging. I don't want to fall out of the habit of my daily workout. :)
MEOWEE: Thanks for posting a website. That one is a good one! I went there to get more info on Byetta the other day, and found it helpful. I need to get out of here...I am the wedding coordinator for my church and I have an appointment with a caterer this afternoon! Later! |
