1st of the month, so I wanted to begin again.
At the doctor's Weds, I had to report to her about poor compliance checking the blood glucose and on the food. So of course I got a bit of a lecture.
I have to take this thing seriously: so to not cause any further damage to the body I need to try to get the blood glucose down to below 100. It had been while I was coming off sugar - I don't know what's going on now.
I saw the visiting nurse Friday, she finally got through to me that if I manage the diabetes, the other endocrine problems would also be helped.
I'd been feeling overwhelmed about all that I would have to do to learn and coordinate the procedures, and food plans.
I will be setting up my meds weekly and have a way to carry them with me when I'm out of the apartment.
I ride the bus most of the time, so it's hard sometimes to plan well for when I can have meals etc. I also have high pain levels all the time, so carrying a lot of stuff with me is hard and of course fairly low income so eating out would be a problem.
Oh, my gosh! I found FluffyChix and other sites with the most appealing, tasty recipes. I nearly want to cry it seems that prayers and hopes are being answered. this is doable. I've been so overwhelmed about how to handle everything. Nearly shut down cause it all has seemed like too much.
Because I have an inner family with different wants regarding food, getting everyone on the same page with doing this - restoring our health so we can accomplish what we want to in life is challenging.
And I can have MyFatSecret with me on my android phone - so glad I splurged to get one. This will make recording everything so much easier - cause I can post the blood glucose in the Journal and keep track of everything in one place. That's what's been needed.
So I'm aiming for a Keto or Paleo type food plan and have joined a couple groups and am ready to begin a challenge on Monday. I'd like to do a 90 day edging into paleo or maybe the hflc type plan I've seen.
My body seems to be very insulin resistant - judging by my blood sugar. So this would be great if I can get myself off of diabetic meds and have a better way of eating be natural and common for me to be doing.
I found out where I could pass an unlocked gate to get to the pool area where I live. So I did some water aerobics tonight. slowly, hopefully I won't be in lots of pain tomorrow.
