Bits & Balderdash

Early in February I began to try and eat better, exercise more and generally just take better care of my health.

I used to refer to my self as pre-diabetic but the reality is that I am a diabetic! Last fall I scored an A1C of 7.0 for which I was very happy considering I've had A1C's as high as 11+! That is not good! I had a recheck of my A1C in March and it was 7.3 for which my doctor was very happy. But in reality I knew the real truth.

With my daily blood glucose number a total mess, in early February some good friends I know were just beginning a new healthy eating regimen. So Lynn and I thought what would it hurt.

After just a few weeks my morning fasting blood glucose reading were down into the 90-110 range. While not perfect ... GREAT for me!

As a bonus, in early February my weight was at 208, at of today, April 9th I'm down 23 pounds to 185! I'm super stoked! My new milestone if to reach 170 which is only another 25 pounds!

I'll keep you posted!
