Hi, my name is delores and I'm NOT on a diet. I say that because I have OCD and if I am on a diet I will obsess and cut calories and all that stuff until I make myself sick and then I go off the diet and binge mightily and then I give up all of it and go back to eating badly all the time.
However, I am also apparently developing Type II diabetes. I am 5'9", 30 years old, and I weigh 245 lbs.
I went to my sister's babyshower yesterday and not only was I nearly as big as she is (and she's 9 mo preggers) but after eating the cake and stuff I was dizzy and everything, this has been happening a lot lately, and I know its my blood sugar.
As I said, I'm not dieting. I'm following the Mediterranean food pyramid and trying really, really hard to just eat healthfully and lose weight and fix my blood sugar problem. I'm also cutting out caffeine - from 7-10 cups of coffee and two diet pepsis a day to one cup of coffee and a cup or two of tea.
I just want to talk if that's okay, dont' want to talk weight loss but I may put on a ticker just to remind myself why I'm doing this.
Anyway, hello nice to meet you please excuse the rambling!
