Donna you are doing good and we will all get better at this over time. And learn from each other.
Hey everyone whats your favorite veggie so we can help Donna find some veggies.
Mine are steamed butternut squash, green beans, carrots (i know curious) and peas (sure hope cheryl is not reading)
Bread was hard for me to give up too. But I am over it now. Candy was even harder. I was sugar fiend.
Now on the blood tests, this goes for everyone. The fasting test for sugar and insulin may not show your are insulin resistant. You need the 2 hour one for both.
And not to be doom and gloom but fat holds estrogen , its stored in fat. So we need to get rid of the fat and it will protect us from estrogen related disease down the road.

was what they had this morning to go with the scrambled egg to
eat. Forgot it had walnuts too.
Yep it was Mcdonalds. But I'm working on it. I just couldn't
help it. I wasn't able to come back home to eat in between
my meeting this morning and my Physical Therapy.
So I ate the best nutritional meal I could find. I knew I was
off some but, I was trying.
I'm not eating bread unless I can't handle not, I used to love
rolls and bread, so its a real sacrifice for me.
And when it comes to the insulin part, my blood sugar has been
checked so many times this last year, I can't even begin to count.
I am working on getting on veggies. I have celery, but I have
to not eat the peanut butter on it. I forgot to get some ready
this morning when I was leaving, it was supposed to go with
me.
But that was my mistake. So I still have plenty. So its there for
tomorrow.
Water and hot tea are my drinks tonight nothing in the drink, just
a need to have something to stop the coughing.
Donna
