No change today...except for in my attitude. I know that I am not doing something right, but can't quite figure out how to fix it "for me". Something has stalled me for a while now...doesn't seem to matter if I am close to what different people and sites have told me to be near or not. I am open minded about everything...and will try different things to jump start me again...except for fasting. My medications do not allow that at the moment.
I did notice that my blood sugars are going down, slowly, but going down none the less, which will make my doctor happy and hopefully that will continue to go down and at least take away one medication or maybe even a couple. Even if I don't lose anymore weight in the next few months before my next check in appointment, I do know know that she will be happy about the success I have had.
I'm feeling a little more encouraged at home after making last night's meal. I made chicken breasts on the grill, a big enough salad with lots of stuff in it, and cauliflower. I gave my boyfriend the option of whether or not he wanted a baked potato with his meal...and he chose not to, saying to me..."it's working for you, I can try to eat a little healthier too". (Now...if I could only get him to see that his nightly ritual of a "few" beers...isn't going to help him lose much weight, if any.) Anyway, as encouraging as everyone has been on here...and I'm sure will continue to be.... well, that meant just a little more to me. No, one comment doesn't make everything all better on the home front... but it could be a beginning or not. Open minded about that too.
