  • Thank you for replying I have talked to my doctor about it... I do test before exercising. I lost a couple lbs since taking 2 pills again . Yes quitting smoking probably made my diet not much of a diet back 10 months ago.. lol
  • I'm thinking that also.. Too bad I spent over $50 for something that don't give the correct burn. I did put in my information in the watch. Thanks :)
  • If your asking sucralose no calorie sweetner raises your bg for a diabetic.. it's basically carb free not even 1 carb. No it doesn't raise your BG... I use it in my coffee but haven't had to use it in my tea for month now . I now use apple cinnamon water for my green tea. Cinnamon is good for regulating BG,
  • I bought one of them Walgreens glass scales .. Let's just say I had a fit and they should really not make scales out of glass...I'm back to my old analog scale.. HAHA
  • thanks for the advice. My nurse practitioner is suppose to be a diabetic specialist in my clinic. But i don't think she really is..lol My husband came home yesterday from hunting. he wanted me to try not taking a pill at night, I was leary at first, I had at least 36 carbs in my meal . 2 hrs after my bg was only 97, If I…
  • I called for my A1C results this morning and it is 5.7. I looked at mayo.com and it says pre diabetic from 5.7-6.4 .. I wish my doctor would call me.
  • That's what I was wondering. Thank you, My friend did the same dose but now she's back on 2xs a day. I thought maybe I was wrong somewhere because my Nurse pract seems to think everyone is on it 2xs a day. haha But I will wait until I get my A1C and then I'm calling my Husbands Doctor!
  • I never knew about an endocrinologist before I would have to see if my clinic even has one of them . Thank you both..
  • I wish that was the case, I have talked to her about taking me off one pill and all she says is normally everyone is on it 2xs a day. I don't think she knows what she's doing! She's suppose to be the diabetic specialist. lol Thank you all for your replys.. and It was just a thought of trying it but I'd be to scared to just…
  • The problem is this women doesn't listen.. I talk to her and it's like talking to a brick wall. I think she gets a kick back .. I had to ask her about my Blood pressure med today. I have been taking lisinopril 10 mg once a day my blood pressure has been low . today they took it and it was only 99/72. I had to ask her if i…
  • Please make a doctor apt. I wasn't dieting not exercising the weight just fell off. 20 lbs . I then found out why because I was diagnosed diabetic.
  • Dump him and you will lose the dead weight of him! Your bf sounds like an idiot! There's a lot more better men out there. Believe me I went though some losers before marrying my husband .
  • I hadn't smoked what you're talking about since i was 18 . Lmao and not going to start again. todays isn't like the 80s kind i'd be a zombie with the stuff thats out there now. :)
  • i hope i get to day 5 . I can't wait to say i haven't smoked for a whole week. and omg the smells i can smell now it's awesome!
  • My husband is quitting at the same time. but he cheated when i went to bed ..lmao. then the next night i caught him and we both had our last 2 cigarettes at the same time. now we are completely out !
  • Sometimes I feel like I'm coming out of my own skin. But it is getting easier. Today I didn't have a piece of gum for 2 hours after waking up or the e cig. I took my dog for a walk first thing in the morning. I will tapper down on the e cigs gradually i guess . Your right its a crouch. After meals is the worse tho. I do…
  • Thank you... I will log it as gardening .. I'm glad we only have half acre to clean up! My husband is building the fish house and I'm cleaning up the branches.......Happy the big maples didn't get struck by lightening like some ppl here did. or the straight line winds only broke some branches and not split our trees. Front…
  • I've been taking metformin 500mg 2xs day. Lost weight but exercise has alot to do with it. You have to move your body to lose weight. it can help with weightloss . Eat a small carb before taking the pill. If you are not hungry drink some milk. I had body aches my first 2 weeks while taking the pills but now I have no…
  • Omg ... I'd freak out too! Now I'm so happy I live in Mn. we might get tons of snow . see a snake in the woods but never roaches in the outdoors. Only roaches in the city where dirty ppl live.. lol Misquotes, June bugs and bees I can live with but not roaches ... ewwww I've come across some cows that got out of the pasture…
  • I'd listen to your doctor. I started out using this site to track my carb in take because of my diabetes. It's a great tool to just to track food. You don't have to eat back all your calorie burned calories. To me it's like whats the point in exercising if your gonna eat back those calories. but sometimes i do ... you can…
  • If she is a " close co- worker friend" Why not tell her how your feeling about what shes doing.
  • The more i read about pos or whatever it's called makes me wonder . but metformin is suppose to help both so its a win win i guess. I had 2 periods in one month last month . never had that before in my life . I'm just glad my ovary wasn't twisted. that scares me I am afraid of surgery..
  • couple years ago I had to go to the ER for horrible sharp pains in my lower part of my stomach area. turns out it was a cyst on my ovary. They gave me pain pills and couple months later it went away. i had 2 ultra sounds ( it was getting smaller) i never did go back for the 3rd ultra sound. they are expensive. then was…
  • yes but when you exercise like me and taking metformin and your bg is low and then have to eat a carb to raise your bg to normal is hard. but yes i do some times go beyond my carbs.. hate them .. lol
  • i just did .. smile:.. and the snack section some things arn't in one sitting like chips.. lol i just added in the same category .. i don't eat 4 servings of Doritos . lol
  • How about asking her Pediatrician?
  • Green tea
  • I have been diabetic for about a year now . When i was diagnosed my bg was 235. I was put on metformin 2xs a day 500mg. I lost **** load of weight by exercising watching my carb intake. I still have a candy bar once in a while . cheat on a burger with a BUN! I exercise every day... 7 days a week - None stop . 4 months ago…
