Still Alive

And still walking. Switched to MapMyWalk for tracking and having trouble posting from there. I’m up to 2.5 miles/50 min. a day, now. Will try posting it again tomorrow. I’ve lost 13 lbs. and 2 jeans sizes, though and just feel better in general! :) Hope y’all are doing good!

  • To decrease anxiety
  • To increase flexibility
  • To build bone density
  • To increase lean muscle mass
  • To improve athletic performance
  • To control weight and eating habits
  • To increase cardiovascular health
  • To increase motor coordination and balance
  • To decrease risk factor for heart disease, uterine cancer, breast cancer and diabetes

Who here eats sugar free?

diabetesdoesntownme:

Like what.

I use sweet-n-low in my cereal and tea and I like sprite zero. Occasionally I get the sugar-free klondike bars. You have to watch the sugar-free stuff though, because a lot of it is loaded with fat. Likewise, a lot of the fat-free stuff is loaded with carbs. The fat-free/sugar-free yogurt is good. I like cherry vanilla with some fresh grapes mixed in. :)

“Salt Diabetes” is what they used to call hypernatremia, although I’m 45 and haven’t heard “Salt Diabetes” since I was 12. Interesting…

Cheesy Diabetes Poem


Poke, poke - Do you feel pain?

Stabbed with needles every day

This is what our futures hold

Carried with us ‘til we’re old

But the prospects aren’t so grim

You take care and you might win

We are type one and type two

Some fought for years but some are new

To each other we lend hands

Somehow it’s taller that we stand

None of us are made of stone

It helps to know we’re not alone


by me… Bri …

Life is like a pair of pants. Some days you find money in the pocket, and other days your pocket catches on the doorknob of your classroom and you take out three desks and a foreign exchange student as you stumble in.

8am

Sugar’s been low all night and still is despite the 16 glucose tablets I’ve consumed. So, going to eat breakfast and give the fast insulin some time to work itself out - then see if I feel okay to walk. I hate diabetes…
