I actually self-diagnosed my diabetes. When I was tested
by my physician (01-07), my blood glucose (sugar) was sky-high. Since then, I
have faithfully taken my medication, watched my diet, and workout 4 to 5 times
per week (mostly cardio). I also joined a weight-loss program (you buy the
food), but was seeing little results in terms of weight loss.
Last week, I managed to get a cold, lost my appetite, and
lost about 2 pounds. How nice. I need to lose about 60 pounds, and with the
medications I'm on, it seems to be a no-win battle. However, I am trying to persevere and keep a
positive attitude. I am my own manager. No family. I DO have a strong faith in
God, and I know if I continue to do my part, good things will happen.
Find something to chuckle about, and laugh out loud. It
is good for you.
