Surgery in 3 weeks!

Jun 18, 2013

July 10th! I've worked hard keeping my blood sugars in control, in spite of a little weight gain. Insulin always "helps" me put on weight. I've had some issues come up that have been hard to get through and still be "good". Hubby had his second heart attack  (thank you God, he is doing very well)  and I had a car accident that put me in a sling for a few days. It's been rough to say the least. But I'm putting one foot in front of the other and am going to be ready for surgery. I have my preop on June 26th and this time, should have no problems with my A1c.

Some good things that have happened--I joined the gym and have actually been going. I also have been cooking super healthy for the hubs and have started losing again. It's funny, when I think about it. I would do anything to keep my dear Love alive, such as cooking right and encouraging him to do healthy things for himself. But for years I didn't think that way about MYself! It really kind of put things into perspective for me.  If I love myself, I should be having the same mentality for me as well!  I've put into practice substitutions for stress/emotional eating that I've learned, which I believe has kept me from becoming out of control in spite of all the stress I've had. I can do this, I am sure of it now.  Hubs and I can live many more years together as long as we both do what our bodies need. Healthy eating and exercise! I'm so fortunate I get to have this tool to help me, to help my whole family be healthy.
