waffle iron

blue bonnet

Good for you...what a victory !!!!!! P.S. Did you win the race ????

This sounds awesome. Pumpkin pie is my favorite. I am def going to make this into a whole pie for the holidays.

Great job getting things under control. 5 seems to be the magic number, because that is what my Dr told me as well. I take 500mg of Metformin twice a day and my A1C has gone from 7.6 in May to 6.3 in Nov. FitnessPal has been a great help in getting my weight down and also getting in some exercise ( Which I am SOOO lazy…

AWESOME !!!!!! What a great victory..you should be very proud :) You look super..keep up the good work.

WooHoo That is awesome......and it IS a big deal...take credit !!!!!

Wow...that had to be very scary. Glad you are taking control and doing the right thing. FitnessPal has helped me a great deal. Welcome...

Wow..great job...you should do the happy dance !!!!

I make this quite often for breakfast. I add some quick oats and walnuts. After its cooked I spread some sugar free jam or even some cream cheese on top. When in season I've added blueberries right into the mix. The combinations are endless. Very filling and also so good !!

I agree with Mokey...450 calories is way too many calories for lunch. I try to stay under 300 and its usually a Michelina's Lean Gourmet meal

Love pancakes...def going to try this..:)

Awesome !!!!! Great outlook and a good reason to watch things through the holidays. You can do it :) Good luck on the A1C testing as well

Guess this group is histroy......oh well I know I completed my goal before Halloween

3 - 4 pounds of chicken with the skin removed (I use thighs because we like dark meat) 3 - 4 peeled potatoes 1 large onion - quarted 1 jar of salsa (I use medium becauase we like it a bit on the spicy side) 1 pack of taco seasoning cook on low all day...oh how good

I add sugar free smuckers strawberry jam..oh so good

One day at a time...one victory at a tme..... I find that watching my carbs every day keeps my sugar levels in control and when I do have a high carb day it really doesn't effect me the way it used to. Life happens and sometimes you just have to go with the flow :) Congrats on your NSV !!

I love oatmeal for breakfast. I mix: 1/2 cup Quaker quick oats - 1 cup hot water - 1 teaspoon cinnamon - mix it all together then I add some walnuts and a spoonful of Polaner or Smuckers sugar free jam. So delish !! Sometimes instead of the jam I add fresh apples or peaches. You may want to add a bit of sweetner if you use…

I do the Leslie Sansone 5 Day Slim Down Walking DVD. It's just enough of a workout for me and I can do it at home. After working all day I do not want to go back out after I get home, so it is perfect.

Thanks for the support Crazygirl....It's a journey. but there is liught at the end of the tunnel.....I know I can do this !!! Thanks again for the encouragement

Whats normal for one person is not always normal for another person. My BS ranges from 90's to 120's depend ing on what I eat and when I test. Could have been what you ate for lunch. Keep testing and see if you fall into a patten. It is an ongoing learning experience. I have found that Fitness Pal has helped me a great…
