Hello everyone, hope this finds everyone doing well! I am heading out of town until Tuesday, going to a family reunion, so I will try to do my best with my eating, but you cannot beat homecooked food! Talk to you all soon! :tongue:

Cali: So glad to hear from you! I am happy you are up and walking around getting some exercise! :flowerforyou: Had a great weekend, My baby turned 23 on Sunday and we had a great day, I was very well behaved and only had a small peice of his cheesecake! Yea me! He is making me feel old though. :huh: I am doing okay without…

Are you home yet? I am glad you are feeling great. Glad to have you back! :bigsmile: Thanks!

You could also bring some fruit for when they serve treats! :happy:

Try some peanut butter and multi grain crackers. You could also bake or broil some chicken breast and take those to have for protein. I think you will be just fine with all the exercise and activities. Have a great time and do not worry about your intake so much. It does pay to do some tracking to keep yourself in check,…

I think the "Junk Food Bin" will eventually grow some things that are not to healthy as well! :bigsmile: This lady is crazy, teach them the right way to eat and get them out in the evening to exercise! That is what wroks for all of us, why not instill that into your children! :love:

Good for you! You should be proud of yourself, I am proud of you! That is a great accomplishment. I think you will do great, I have hand written stuff out before and it seems a pain in the butt. I do not mind entering things into this site and looking at all the info from everyone, It helps. Good luck on the rest of your…

Hey guys! Hope you are home and doing well Cali! I just got back from my doctors appointment. My A1c was 5.6, and I had lost 5 pounds since my March visit. He took me off of my Amaryl. So we will see how well I do with that! All my Cholesterol numbers were within range, I am so happy! Hope you all have a great day!…

I do like my one touch! Most times I check it the morning of my lab work to see if my fasting matches, and most of the time it does. Who knows what made it crazy today! :grumble: Thanks lioness I will recalibrate my machine when check again. :smile: Cali I am thinking of you Hope you are home soon and back on line!…

Hello everyone! Hope all is well. I had a question about testing your sugar at home. I have a One touch machine and this morning sugar was 135 and 15 minutes later it was 114. Does this mean my machine is not accurate. I probably should not have rechecked so close, but I could not beleive it was that high. Just wondering.…

Just dropping in to say hello! Hope everyone has a great day! Stay on track! :love:

That is Fabulous Lioness! Great job :love: Cali: I will be thinking of you, hope all goes well and talk to you when you return to the internet :smile: I just had my blood work done, go to see the doctor next Wednesday. I am hoping for great results, been working hard. Hope everyone has a healthy weekend! :drinker:

Hey everyone! Just checking in, I hope all is well for everyone. I am doing okay, sugar is still good, but I am slowly gaining weight each week. I must be doing something wrong, maybe not eating enough. Who knows! :mad:

Remember, you have to do what is best for you. I personally do not like the no carb diet and I do not by no-fat or low fat stuff. I would rather have less of it and enjoy the flavor. If you stick to the diabetic diet you should be fine. :happy: Have you seen a diatician lately to see what they have to say? they may be able…

Cali: Glad to see you got a walk in. Home grown beans, YUMMY! I had a bad day yesterday, ate everything I could find. I hate those days. I am back on track today though! Hope everyone is doing okay!:flowerforyou:

Hey guys! Just checking in, nothing to exciting going on here. :happy: Hope everyone is doing good! Have a great day! :blushing:

Calie, Glad to hear you are doing well with your sugar! :love: It is very hard sometimes when you cannot exercise with your meds and especially after having surgery. I am glad your chin is up. I have not lost any weight this week, that is very frutrating to me, especially when I feel like I give up so much to get there. I…

Yea! They are on the kick of making everything balance out and they do work to gether the carbs, fat and protein, but if you are having high numbers in the morning, the protein is the best to help with that at night by itself. Lioness has some great ideas, anything with high protein will help, just watch your labels.…

I was told when I had this problem that during the night, my sugar was dropping real low and then my liver would produce sugar in order to bring it back up. This was causing the spike in the blood sugar. So to avoid that they said to eat some protein before bed becasue it goes into the system slower than carbs and would…

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the help! :flowerforyou:

I though maybe this was related to the fat you see on the food labels not the fat in your body? I am a little confused by it, maybe I should just ignore it. Last night I walked 30 minutes and it said I burned 50 fat calories. I do not know what my intake for the day was, but I am sure it is not that High. Just wondering.…

Thank you! I will keep that in mind at the end of the month. I am hoping to loose a few more pounds by then and maybe I will have some play weight! LOL! :bigsmile:

Jennifer: Welcome and congrats on the children, they are a blessing! You will do fine, if you have any questions, this site is great for finding the answers, they also support you in other ways as well. HOpe all is well and welcome! :flowerforyou:

Lioness: The important thing is your sugar did not go up on you! That is our main goal, the weight is nothing, Loosing it does help, when you stray like that, just get back on track and say I had a good time. I have a trip planned at the end of the month and we always go to Dairy Queen in Paintsville KY and have Chilli…

Hey! Hope all is well for everyone! Cali, hope you are feeling okay. Those stints will make you feel better! I had a great weekend camping, the food was difficult to work with, but i did okay. Did lots of bike riding to help out with the mistakes I made. Hope everyone had a great one! :drinker:
