Diabetes Notes

Weekly journal- Fairly good 3/29/08

by Kendra James, RN on March 29th, 2008

Bloodsugars have been so-so this week. I had a minor surgical procedure at the beginning of the week and I think just the trauma of it threw me off. I had a small tumor/cyst (we aren’t sure till pathology comes back) removed of my head, so I have about 20 stitches or so. And my left eye was swollen shut and bruised all week from the pulling and tugging of my scalp on that side. Boy oh boy was I pretty!

So here ya go…. between 90 and 123. I know that is a little higher then usual but I do think it is from the procedure and healing from it.

Food- I was good as good can be. I didn’t even do the Easter candy this week, I actually didn’t give the kids a heck of a lot so there wasn’t too much laying around. I discovered Healthy Choice steamer meals, actually mu hubby did, and did then for dinner twice and once at lunch. Low carbs and sugar content and 2 serving veggie. Actually very filling. I did the typical salad, yogurt and sandwich/soup the rest of the week. I was a bit nauseous from the head pain so ate a small amount less then normal.

Exercise- yes dumb me even kept exercising with the swollen face and stitches, which is why it took so long for it to go down and why my head still aches a bit. Ran/jogged, lacrosse, elliptical, situps, dumbbells, pushups, exercise ball.

I will get on the scale in the morning and through it out the window if it reads the same, haha.
