Seraphim Posted January 23, 2020 Author Share Posted January 23, 2020 Finished my cardio for today. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted January 24, 2020 Author Share Posted January 24, 2020 Hubby and I did cardio together. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted January 26, 2020 Author Share Posted January 26, 2020 Last night I made a really good chocolate chai pudding with raspberries that I had this morning! The dietician also recommended putting hemp seeds on salads. Since hemp seeds and chai seeds are mostly fibre they don’t raise the blood sugar quickly. Link to comment
ThatwasThen Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I was so bad last night... ate half a bag of potato chips while watching t.v. with the hubs. :( Back on track again this morning though. Like my doctor said... you gotta live once in awhile! Link to comment

Like my doctor said... you gotta live once in awhile! True, once in a while won’t kill anyone. As long as it is not a habit. I can’t see once a month killing anyone. I congratulated myself on my hard work by half a bag as soon as my blood work was done on the 11th. I think I have gone down another 2 pounds I will found out tomorrow in the weigh in. 1 Link to comment

Seraphim Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 Gained half a pound since last weigh in but I increased my carbs like the dietician said so my body needs to adjust. I increased my cardio tonight to 40 mins daily. Link to comment

Seraphim Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 I increased my carbs too much and gained 2 pounds😓. Back to carb reduction. Link to comment
ThatwasThen Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Oh wow... must be something in the air, Vic. I gained one this week. On a good note, my A1C was a consistent 6.1 again this quarter. Link to comment

On a good note, my A1C was a consistent 6.1 again this quarter. Well, the dietitian who came to the meeting told me to increase my carbs by double. We see how that went. NOPE. Great news!

ThatwasThen Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Well, the dietitian who came to the meeting told me to increase my carbs by double. What? Did she say what carbs to double? Great news!Thanks. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 What? Did she say what carbs to double? Thanks. No she didn’t say what just that only 50g of carbs a day would make me ketotic and make me pass out and it wasn’t safe. I could easily double it. Link to comment
ThatwasThen Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Well, you know your own body and if you feel your blood sugar is dropping then you will need to take a couple of Glucose pills. I assume you keep them with you at all times. Link to comment

I assume you keep them with you at all times. Nope, never heard of them. I just eat a cracker or two. Link to comment
ThatwasThen Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Go to your local pharmacy and get some. A cracker or two will do nothing to help you get out of a sudden drop in blood glucose should you have a real doozy of one. It can cause you to faint or or worse. Haven't you gone to your diabetic clinic appointment yet? They educate you about everything to do with diabetes and prediabetes and proper diet and portions to keep your sugars level. Google "Glucose Tablets" and see. I was getting a lot of quick drops when I wasn't eating protein at breakfast i'm glad I knew about the tablets before I was told to eat a protein at brekki to alleviate the drop. Link to comment

I eat only protein at breakfast in the form of plain Greek yogurt. I can’t get to an appointment because appointments are only in the day. I work from 6:30 AM to 5 PM. Link to comment

Seraphim Posted February 7, 2020 Author Share Posted February 7, 2020 I just finished my cardio which I had let drop for a week. And I noticed my knee started hurting again. I have done two reflexology sessions now and there is no pain in my ankle at all and I have gained feeling back in my heel. I have brought my carbs down back to 50 or lower. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 I lost all the weight I gained. Link to comment
