Well it's the start of a new week and now I must renew my determination. As I said I'm not hovering on 157 any more... this morning when I woke up and stumbled to the scale I had to rub my eyes and look again. 158! WHAT??? I don't know why that should be surprising though. After all, over the weekend I did have smores, pasta, cake and ice cream. What was I thinking??? :) That's no way to lose weight! Now that Dave is home he can lose weight with me :) He's is very thrilled about that let me tell you. Fortunately my blood glucose level is relatively stable. Yesterday it was 102 and this morning 103. That's lower than I expected but I'll take it. I wonder if those cinnamon capsules someone recommended to me are helping to keep it down. I can't tell. I'll just keep taking them... but work really hard on eating healthy things for the rest of the week. This weekend will once again be a challenge as it is Chataqua weekend and who can resist disgustingly delicious "fair" food? Not me! And besides that Dave is bringing home a keg Saturday afternoon and inviting everyone he knows to come help him drink it. If anyone is in the neighborhood this is your invitation to come on by Saturday afternoon. I will not be drinking beer but where there's beer there's usually fattening food right? We will have friends from the "other side" all weekend and I am going to Silverwood on Sunday so I have no idea what all food naughtiness I will indulge in. Certainly some :) I feel like if I can't enjoy some of the things I love then life would be BORING! I little moderation would be great though. I'll have to learn how to do that.
Gotta go mow again. Ciao!
Food is my passion! I love my kitchen, my garden my cookbooks and magazines. What I hate is the threat of diabetes wrecking a beautiful relationship. Can I use my love of food and basic knowledge of nutrition to create a healthy body and lifestyle. Yes, I can. I'm sure of it. The real question is... Will I? Let's find out :)
