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, […]
Hooray!!! I lost 5 pounds and my A1c was 4.0! What a good week for the diabetic me. The doctor was happy with this and so am I. I honestly didn’t believe it. But I will take it.
So yes the scale finally moved. 5 whole pounds- honestly I think it is stress of recent. But […]
A Pacemaker like device to help one lose weight? This type of machine/mechanism has been around since 2005 and has been hit or miss in the past. This summer Dr. Ikramuddin plans to implant a device like such in up to 30 volunteers as part of an international research study.
In this case, a pacemaker-like device […]
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 […]
Boy oh boy- what a week. Lets see… I passed out at work due to a bloodsugar of 38- go figure. It was AFTER I ate lunch and was back on the floor/nursing. What the heck is all I have to say? Thanks goodness I am a nurse and my fellow nurses didn’t freak out […]
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 […]

The Mediterranean diet is rich in olive oil, grains, fruits, […]
Ok, this week has been soooo long! My bloodsugars, 2 hr post, have been anywhere from 89-115. Not bad. I am having a hard time with food as of late- still!!!! I do not know what has happened to me and my sensible ways. I was better this week, but didn’t eat enough fruits and […]
Journal time… I am a bit more back on track. My 2 hour post sugars have been between 90-120, so a little higher but down from last week- thanks goodness! I have to admit, I am having a hard time staying on track with my food. It is really annoying me too!!
I know what I […]
Ok, so it has been an interesting week here. I am not sure if it is the high stress level here, or the lack of concentration on my part but oh boy the bloodsugars have been oh so bad! I single handily went from having my average sugar in the 90’s to struggling to keep […]
