Losing is Good

I trust that you are having a good day today. Mine started off right!! When I weighed this morning, I was down 2 pounds! That was a surprise, a very pleasant surprise! Now, if I can just continue along that road I will be happy...Losing is good! I have learned that my sugar is up so I am being scheduled to meet with a Diabetes Educator next Wednesday. After that, and after my return trip from our next BBQ/Rally, I will be required to attend some class for four weeks. I'm hoping that, out of this time, I will lose more weight, in a painless way, of course.

My sugar is not that high, actually, just elevated enough to make my family physician want to get me enrolled in some classes (125 with an A1C of 6.). Dr. G is such a caring doctor that I have enough respect in his opinions to follow through with his requests. I have been placed on medication once a day, at least temporily, until a determination is finalized. I know that if I would exercise regularly and change some eating habits, things would be much better.

I wonder if you readers belong to AARP and if you took the test on your longevity. I did and was quite pleased with the result, if, indeed, those results mean anything. The reading was interesting regardless of its accuracy. You may want to take a look at the articles regarding diet and exercise.
