Hey MauReenie!!!!!

Reenie, Have you had your blood sugar tested recently? The Man found out last week that he's diabetic. He told me that since last Spring he's had a voracious hunger like the one that you've described. He said that he's gained about 40 pounds from this insatiable hunger and his doctor told him that the tremendous hunger is sometimes a sign of diabetes. You've probably already checked this out, but I think I remembered that you were diabetic pre-surgery so thought I'd mention it. Big Hugs, Connie

Hey backatcha! My sugars read fine for diabetes, not remotely on the radar. The hunger is something else, Connie, just so deep and empty...I can't describe it. I'm trying to adjust to the fact that this may be with me for the rest of my life and I had better figure out how to deal with it accordingly. Thanks for thinking of me, though! I hope The Man starts taking good care of himself immediately, beginning with taking some of that weight off! The best thing overweight diabetics can do is to lose at least 30% of their excess body weight. When are you leaving for your vacation? I miss you already? Love, Maureen
