3a. Birthday
Posted by: "CLAUDIA" clewing1953@sbcglobal.net clewing1953@sbcglobal.net
Date: Thu Jul 30, 2009 10:11 am ((PDT))

Yesterday was my birthday and I made it through with only dipping into
my weekly points a little (this is my fourth week and I've only used
my weekly points a total of 2.5 points before yesterday) and that was
for the cake. I am hoping I can find someone to take the rest of this
cake, as my daughter is on WW with me and my husband is diabetic, and
we don't need this cake sitting here in the kitchen!

I ate some of my favorites, just made smart choices as far as the
serving size. I had a sausage pattie with my Fiber One pancakes at
brunch, ate extremely small bites to make it last, rather than wolfing
it down in two bites. I ate a yogurt for lunch, and another one later
as I am on antibiotics and they are tearing up my stomach and
intestines. I bought a new box of Weight Watcher's English Toffee ice
cream bars at the store, so had to have one of them, too.

For supper I had shrimp cocktail, steamed snow crab legs, baked
potato, an ear of corn (both using the light butter; until my points
drop more I'm sticking with that), steamed asparagus (had three
steamers going at once last night-lol), then the cake with Breyer's
Free ice cream. So that cake was the only thing I really did wrong
last night. I am so proud of myself! Every step like this makes me
more empowered to stick with this new life!

5a. Diabetes
Posted by: "Faye Ridpath" ispgypsy@gmail.com fayefromtampa
Date: Thu Jul 30, 2009 12:52 pm ((PDT))

My diabetes really is starting to suck! If I eat pretty good but have things
like 100 calorie packs and cookies etc. etc. well it doesn't seem to hurt me
as long as I am also on plan with WW points wise and not going over but at
the same time, I know those aren't the best choices plus none of those
things sustain a person very long so of course I'm ready to eat something
again almost as soon as I finished that.

But if I make better food choices, and eat the way I'm sure WW intends (I
mean I know they say you can eat whatever you want as long as you stay on
points and follow the healthy guidelines, I'm sure they intend for you to
make healthy food choices with your points and not a bunch of junk. I mean
sure a person could have a whole pizza or a big bag of candy for the day and
still be on points but that's not what they intend) like I did today (I've
eaten lots of veggies today, wheat bread, nuts) then I have a sugar low.
This is my 2nd one in two weeks. Usually if I have anything abnormal it's a
high but lately it's been right where it should be until I started making
better choices the past two weeks. Like less diet soda, more water (funny
when I stopped drinking so much diet soda my headaches have been
considerablly less too), more veggies less 100 calories packs etc. It's
frustrating that if I take care of myself I have adverse results and if I
let myself go, I have better results (sugar wise) I hate lows. This low
isn't as bad as last week's- only borderline low cuz I caught it right away
this time so took a glucose tablet. I still feel slightly shaky but not near
as bad as the low I had last week.

I see my doctor 8/3 so I think I'll ask if maybe I should lower my dose. I
only take insulin once a day- 40 units. And no other diabetic meds. I used
to take insulin twice a day and metformin at night but last appointment he
took me off the metformin and night insulin cuz my numbers were so good. I
guess I could always call him now but since it's so close to my appointment
I can probably just wait for the appointment. I'll just have to remember to
keep my testing kit with me at work now.

Oh yeah this is my biggest fear you guys! I have two nights a week where I
work 3rd shift so I'm by myself. And so far nothing has happened where I
pass out or anything I just get shaky really bad. But my fear is something
worse happening now that my sugar lows may be getting common (ok maybe I'm
being paranoid I mean it has only been two incidents thus far) and me being
all by myself no one would know till my relief comes in the next day. And
even then, it would be awhile because I keep the door locked at night for
security. And we don't have keys we just have to knock. I know I'm probably
worrying for nothing but now it's a fear.

I *am* happy to report that unlike last week where I went into panic (some
people that know about the sugar low incident that I wrote this too I don't
think I shared this part with, I know I did to some but some I felt
embararrased by what I did and was worried I'd be judged but it had been so
so long since I've had a low I paniced) and instead of doing the sensible
thing and taking a glucose tablet I started eating anything I could find
with sugar in it- then I ate so much sugar that I had a high! Plus I gained
a pound this week cuz of it. So this time I was much more sensible and just
took the glucose tablet and am about to test again to see if I'm back to
normal yet. I'm shaking a little still. So I'm not sure.

I was finally being excepting of having a chronic disease and having to
shoot myself in the stomach then I start having incidents like this and I
want to cry! I'm sorry some people loved my post last week when I was
sharing this story some even told me I was inspiring. Now I'm a downer. I'm
sorry. I'm just really really feeling down in the dumps about having this
today because it feels like when I take care of myself and do what I should
I get punished (the sugar lows) I know it's good to take care of myself,
don't get me wrong. It's just frustrating!

Just like it's frustrating that the healthy foods and healthier choices on
restaurants cost way more than good for you foods!

Ok sorry I was a downer. I don't have these poor me pity parties very often
just sometimes I get a little depressed about my condition.

Here's hoping for no more episodes before your appointment on the
third. Will you have blood work before then for the doctor to see your
numbers when you see him/her? I bet they will be lower, and he might
lower your insulin even more. I forget, are you type 1 or type 2? If
you are type 2, you may even be able to come off insulin with diet and
oral meds, and who knows, maybe one day no meds at all!

Look at this as a victory and not something to panic over. In the
meantime, keep making wise choices, but keep something healthy on hand
to help boost your sugar if you feel low blood sugar coming on.

Claudia,

It's really weird cuz my doctor *always* wants me to get blood work 2 days
before my appointments. But this time he didn't give me a prescription to do
it, so I called the office to ask if he just forgot and she put me on hold
to ask him and came back and said no he doesn't want me to do it this time.
Weird since he always does. I wonder why not this time? Especially cuz we
had also changed my cholestrol meds cuz I also have high cholesterol and we
can't get the numbers on that to come down. Sometimes he does blood work in
his office maybe he just plans to do that this time.

I am type II. I used to just regulated with diet and meds but we couldn't
get the numbers to come down no matter what meds and dosages he tried so
finally he said he was out of things to try and put me on insulin.

~~~Faye~~~
