Well, I had my two months visit. I lost 6 lbs. They thought it was the cat's meow. I just said: 'what the heck is 6 lbs given how I eat??"
They said "you are 60 years old, you have lost 40 lbs while on the ACCORD program". So they are tickled. Me?? I just want to weigh what a woman is supposed to weigh. I am not there yet. I will be SOMEDAY. Just not yet. Oh, THEY REDUCED MY LANTUS. From 22 to......drumroll please!!!!!! 18. I had gone up to 46 at the beginning of the ACCORD trial. Today I am at 18. With no other meds. Haven't been on any other oral meds for over 3 years. So they're happy. I'm happy. Hope all of you are WATCHING YOUR SUGAR!!! lol Melody

Why thank you my dear Dorrie:
Last night, before going to bed, I had to put a note next to my syringe and the note said 'USE 18 OF THE LANTUS. God, I'm getting old. I have to write notes to myself. lol
