You can’t run out your fork.
I’ve been diagnosed with diabetes about 20 years ago. Over the past 2 years I lost 55 lbs and moved my A1C from 7.2 to 5.9. Over the last six months, I gained 10 lbs back with the A1C now at 6.2.

Update to my on going pancreatitis nonsense.
No attacks since August, but still getting the contractions in my chest every once in awhile. Had an Endocopic ultrasound this week to see if they can find what's causing the pain. Answer, couldn't find a reason for my pain. So, I feel like a fool as usual. On the bright side, according to my meter, my A1C is 6.3%. Now,…
