DIABETES UPDATE
I am doing much better. My vision is not 100% but much much better and headaches are not as severe nor as frequent.

My blood sugar number is generally staying in a very good range and I am learning to recognize signs from my body if it is creeping low or high.

Last night I dreamt about chocolate though ... and I miss breads and pasta, too. Have had just a teeny bit of pasta, I think one very small chocolate, and nothing that resembled a true sandwich in the 4+ weeks since I was diagnosed.

The weight is not coming off as I'd hoped. This may be partly because of building some muscle through exercise but overall I am thinking I am either not doing enough of something or eating too much of something else. I am probably eating too much protein for one thing. Need to get the weight off. I have lost about 15 pounds but most of that was lost before I was even diagnosed, due to my cells being starved of sugar.

That's all I got.

Hey Todd. I'm starting a 18 week marathon training plan and wondered if you might want to get on board. If a full marathon sounds a bit intimidating then how about a half instead? Half marathon not half mile. I know of several people who have walked them. Just let me know as I would love to be your personal trainer.
