I think I've finally got this effort going. Trying to follow the doctor's orders has been a real challenge. My aim is to stick to the 1900 calories a day that Slim Fast suggests, but without using the Slim Fast products (too full of sugar) and sticking to three meals a day. For the first few days I was so hungry when I got home from work that I couldn't control my eating at dinnertime. But the last couple of day have been much better. I still need to have something to eat as soon as I get home to hold me over while cooking dinner. I've found having half of a can of soup at lunchtime and the other half when I get home works well and only costs 100 calories or so. I've been completely off sweets for the past week and I don't find myself craving them, so that's good. I hope all of this is getting my blood sugar down to a less scary level.

So I finally got around to going to the doctor to check on the diabetes. I've been putting it off for way too long. The results were really dire. This has got to get me back on track; the alternative is serious health problems in the near future.
I've been planning to get back on the SlimFast diet, but the doctor says I need to stick to a three meal a day schedule, to allow the blood sugar to fall between meals. That's going to be a challenge. When I go too long between meals, I find it very difficult to control the amount I eat when I finally get to meal time.
Fortunately, he didn't give me a set menu to eat. The last time I consulted a doctor, he wanted to eat nothing but tofu and seaweed (or at least that's how I remember it). This doctor just told me to stay away from fruit juices and sugary drinks -- no problem on either count -- and avoid snacks. If I get hungry between meals I'm supposed to pop a sugarless mint. Sorry, but that's not going to help.
Anyway, I've got meds that are supposed to lower my blood sugar, and I've got one day at a good calorie level, and I've just got to make it work. I go back in a month to see what progress I've made.
