I say good thing your eatihg right and excersiing! glad to hear your going to the doctor and keep up with your eye doc appointments too.
I had gotten new glasses back when i was in the middle of the LBS nigthmare. Now they are useless to me becuase I can not see out of them. they worked ok the first few weeks when my eyes had gottne bad. but now that i'm in a good place my old glasses work better.
Ahhh the joys of old age!
keep up the good work.

Topic: Doctor's appointment!
Well, I now have another reason to eat RIGHT!! I went to my eye doctor Friday for a regular check up. He asked how my sugar levels were and I told him I go back to my Doctor on July 30 to get my A1C checked and he said to come back to him in a month and let him know what it is. He said I have a Macular Leakage. I never head of it. So for sure now I am trying to eat right. The South Beach Diet is good for diabetes. Have either one of you ever heard of this? Well, what can I say, OLD age ain't fun.
Y'all have a good week end.

God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good. Today is very imporant, because I'm exchaning a day of my life for it.

Marilyn Good for you!!!! Keep the good work, I sat up my tread mill and it will not work! I had closed it last year and now I don't know what is wrong with it. I've been walking a little out side, but it's too hot to walk much. I'm trying to do the South Beach Diet, I'm staying on it pretty good.

Topic: Walking Again!!
HI All
Just got back from my 30 minute walk, this is day #3 for this week. Have to do
it early as it's been 114 around these parts this week. Hey 3 days this week, that is
a big improvement for me. Starting to feel much better about just doing it & getting
some kind of routine back in life for exercise. I was so far gone from it!!
Staying low-carb as possible & no sugar & have not had a diet soda in over a week.
yeah for me.
Have a good weekend & will try & check in more often.
How is everyone doing?Reenie, Connie, Pam, Judy, Kimberly, Yvette & Mikie if you
might be checkin in, as well!!

Hi Yvetter
Hey, We have all been there!! It is hard to stay away from the garbage we know we
are not suppose to have. I have lots of stresses with the living situation I am currently
in, So I do relate. I try & keep the bad stuff out of the house as much as possible. I
also try to stay as Low-carb as possible. that keeps the sweet tooth away & usually
the bad carb monster as well. Some days I win, some days I don't. Donot beat your
self up, if you have a bad day. Let it out & start over the next. You are not that far
off track. Come here & vent, It always helps & we will try & help where we can!
Hang in there!!

Yvette, I wish I could help you !! It has been a long hard journey for me. I lost 86 pounds the first 4 months after I had surgury, I still wanted to lose 19 more pounds, but I didn't. The two years ago I started gaining weight, now I need to lost 69 pounds!! Last Monday June 29th. I started the South Beach Diet. I don't crave sweets now since I've been on it a week and a half. Carbs are my down fall , if I eat one bite of candy I just eat and eat. I wish you luck on losing and if you need to talk this is a good place to come. Judy

yvette, good to see you posting.
times are hard for all of us its so good to be able to come here and talk.
have you talked to your doctor about how anxious your feeling? maybe its time for some medication. if your not into taking meds how about talking to a homoepathic doc. i was having anxiety attacks that go along with the Low Blood Sugar. My naturalist doctor gave me something that is natural that takes the edge off of mild anxiety attacks. they are not fun.
bad carbs will make you crave the sweets. its a visious circle. you eat a carb or sweet and crave more. the best thing for you with that is to step away. I know its easier said than done. we all know that.
i wish i could make everything ok and feel bad that your hurting.
good luck and god bless, pammy

Topic: RE: South Beach Diet
Judy 4 POUNDS!!!!! thats wonderful!!!!!
Don't you find that your not as hungry as you use to be? I find with eating the protein I'll get hungry but of course cause we're eating our snacks and meals so close together sometimes I look at the clock and say I've got to eat again??? for me I know if I don't eat even if I"m not all that hungry that I'll get sick. So I do what my doc says.
Plus I've learned that what the doc says is true! Once I miss or eat later than I'm suppose to then when I do get sick and so far I always do then it takes longer for me to get my body regulated again.
My scale is going down. Not as fantastic as you!!! Only .2 this week so far but I'm not complaining its not going up!
I do miss the sf popsicles & fuddgies god I loved them but can't touch them. the splenda sets my body into thinking its had sugar and I will get an episode. crazy huh? i lived on that stuff! now i get my sweets from good fruits. I can have greek yogurt which is an enquired taste let me tell ya. but for some reason the sugar in it doesn't effect me in fact my doc recommends it. Now i like the taste and I've found that i can put it in the freezer for a short period of time so that it freezes slushy like and it tastes almost like ice cream.
Isn't it funny how you can get use to not having things you never thought you could do without?
reenie how is it going? remember if you want that south beach diet bnook I have a copy that I can drop off to you we're inthe same area daily. I'm on vacation next week but are at work for the rest of this week. If you want to do a private message to how to get in touch with me we can work out a drop for you. You can have it I don't need it bacvk or want anything for it.
good luck and god bless to us allllllll
