Another day on the run. Got to work, go give the florist money, check on tux rentals, work the other job... boy, do I look forward to Sundays (only day off right now!)
BG's doing great, considering everything that I'm doing. I'm staying off the carbs, and I know that helps. I eat them in the morning so they burn off throughout the day and that helps....

Well gotta run and find out what I am wearing to work tonight,,last night of the week,,,hi to everyone else here and gone,,,later,,jeanne
Hey everyone! Sorry I have been MIA the last few days. I have been busy with the new grandbaby, and we had a big event at church last night that I was in charge of.
ROSEY, like you I have not been sleeping too well. My back bothers me in the mornings, but once I am up and moving it seems to limber up. I hope you are walking, even just a little. It is SO good for you, your sugar levels, your fitness, it helps weight loss. Just take baby steps...five minutes...then ten...until you can walk 30 or more. Since you have an artistic eye, you can describe the beautiful Alaska scenery to me that you see. And I will be jealous!
JOSIAN: Wow..I am so excited for you! Its all coming together, and will be here before you know it! Your engagement picture was really nice! Your betrothed has nice hair! Reminded me of my son in law, when he and my daughter first started dating. I love weddings...I am the wedding coordinator for our church, so I am really enjoying hearing about your plans!
JEANNE: I am the one on Byetta. I thought my pen was bad, but I think I was the one who was bad. I had not been walking, but only doing water aerobics, and I guess it was not strenuous enough to get the bg down as well. My morning bg was 87... so I am pretty pleased. It was creeping up to 120...and I was getting depressed about it! I want my next A1c to be really good. I am not losing as well as you. Do you mind posting a menu for me to compare? I eat cereal for breakfast, a half a sandwich for lunch, maybe have a snack of a handful of nuts, then eat some kind of a meat and veggies for dinner. I might have a small potato for dinner, or some kind of a starch, as well. I started out losing pretty well, then the weight loss just stopped.
CREATIONS: Youch! I hope you are feeling a lot better now. That is not a very nice way to lose weight! What kind of a diet do you need to follow for that?
I need to go get some breakfast here... I hope you all have a great day and wonderful weekend!
Oh, and here is a new picture of my grandson! (if I posted one before, please forgive me, I am kind of spacey lately! )
Feeling lousy today...First day I've caught an icky for over a year, so I guess that's got to be pretty good. Slept for 15 hours, decided to take the day to relax instead of do my across state drive. Hopefully I will be better tomorrow.
Good morning! I got the day off to a good start by getting my walk in. Once I am out there, I am amazed at how easy it is, but it sometimes takes some mental games to get myself dressed, shoes on, and out the door!
I started a new Byetta pen yesterday, and it seems to be working better than the last one. The appetite suppressant properties of it were non existent last pen...this one seems to be working. Last night, I just did not want to eat dinner, so I had a few beans and a slice or two of fresh tomato out of the garden, and a few chips with cheese sauce, but the main dish just did not appeal to me (chicken enchilada casserole) so I passed it up. We ate way too late last night as well. I just could not get my act together in the kitchen! Today, I am starting dinner at 3!
JOSIAN: I hope you are feeling better! When is the wedding? (hmm, maybe I ought to do the math from your ticker! )
Morning everyone.. sry i was missing..i have been sick..a flu bug or something..have spent more time in the bathrm than any where else am somewhat better today..just feel washed out.. my sl was up to 144 yesterday but its back to 105 this am..managed some tea and toast this am..its still raining here and cold would be nice to see some sun..hope u all have agreat day.. rosey
Hi, all. I've been reading but have been too depressed to post. Still depressed. I've let all the tension and worry get to me and have put on about ten lbs. I keep trying to put the brakes on it but haven't been successful so far. The apartment problems are calmed down but it still isn't a nice situation. Plus a little tension on the job from new court rules requiring us (meaning me!) to file documents on line, which is tricky and stressful. Ah, the joys of computers! Anyway, that's why I haven't felt much like posting.
Rosey - sorry about you're being sick. You need a nice bowl of chicken soup. Hopefully, the sun will show up one of these days.
Monet, congratulations on your new grandbaby.
ROSEY: I am so sorry you have been sick! Feel better!
ROSETTA: Sounds like work is stressful...but remind yourself that stress eating doesn't make you feel better! Come vent here if you like. We don't mind.
JOSIAN: I hope it is not strep too! A lady on the Sugarbusters forum has a son who has strep, so I guess it is going around. Take care of yourself!
Not strep, or anything else they can pinpoint. I have a lymph node in my throat the size of a golf ball, which makes it hard to swallow or really do much of anything else... they just told me to keep an eye on it and if I'm not better in a couple of days to call them back and they'll run some other tests...
I am feeling better today. I'm up and moving around, getting my work done, so that's a plus
