My sugar checks have been wonderful as of this week. They have been between 80 and 96 and I am feeling good! Haha. I have been doing a lot of protein and a heck of a lot of water and I know it makes no physiological sense, but when I drink more water- meaning about […]

New Yorkers will now be in the know. A new rule requiring all New York chain restaurants to post calorie information on their menus took effect this past Friday. I think that this is great!
In a world where the lack of time, and often bad choices, lead us to food on-the-go, and where obesity, […]

This week was horrible for food- and I mean bad. I have yet to get to the store so it has been nasty finger food and easy grabbing- and not the nutritious kind!
Bloodsugars- between 62-115. Up and down…
My scale is the same which is good considering I porked out this week. Exercise.. none- and I […]

This week was very crazy around here- really quite sad. We had several deaths in our close nit community and at my workplace. With that being said… was virtually non existent around the blogging front. Apologies!
For the week- my bloodsugars were very very very low. Did I mention that they were low? Like 62 and […]
