Hi, Rosey. You are sure one lucky lady when it comes to bingo. What's your secet? Sounds like everythng is going well for you. Keep up the walking. that's something I haven't been able to get myself to do. I haven't done any walking in about 3 years because of orthopedic problems and that has made me very lazy. So I need to get moving. I stayed OP last week until Friday night when I gave in to the burrito craving.

I've got to find a way to stay on plan on the weekends. Back on the wagon today.

Hey rosetta.. a burito isnt that bad.. just have a small one and pile lettuce and tomatoes on top.. some fat free s cream and salsa too.. thats what i do..makes a good meal.. have to say i tried taco bells club chalupa this weekend so i did try something new it was just food tho

and it was as good as the add on tv showed.. gee im so suseptiable(sp?) to food adds

i dont have a secret for bingo either.. i just love to gamble

have a great day and u are doing it.. getting back on pts isnt easy so be proud of your self(((((hugs))))))) rosey

Hello everyone,
I haven't posted in a while, I ahve been so busy with work. I haven't got a day off in two weeks. My sugar hasn't been bad though I have a lot of stress. I had my highest number at 12 which isn't too bad. I am not sure what that number would be in the 100s. Anyway, nice chatting with y'all. Have a great long weeken this week.

Hi everyone.. so where are u all?? hope u are all ok and just busy..i had my dr apt today..wont know the numbers till the blood tests are back..she was more upset about my b/p than the diebetes..since it had been a yr since she has seen me my meds were out of wack..she had just come back from a seminar and she learned that elevated b/p makes elevated sugar levels ..also that i needed a meds change..she upped my glucopage and changed my b/p meds and wants me to get a b/p moniter and test that once a day too..she was pleased with the diet and exercise tho and wants to see me every 6 months now unless the b/p or sugars take a higher note

.. on that note i feel great and glad thats over with.. i hate going to the dr

Hello y'all,

I have been so busy lately, again. I have not had a full day off work in three weeks now.

I have been so stressed, I have even gained 3.5 pounds. I can't wait to go on vacation in July.

I hope everyone is having a good weekend.

I'm back again - haven't been here for a while. Have lost 12kg so far but my weightloss has stalled badly and I really need to get motivated to keep losing.

My doc recently put me back on Metformin so I am having fun with all the lovely side effects

I am increasing my dose slowly so that should help.

Who else is on Metformin (Glucophage) here?
