What are your goals?

1 HINT ABOUT NIGHT-TIME EATING, MS CHERYL ... IF YOU EAT A SMALL PROTEIN SOURCE, LIKE A FEW NUTS, BEFORE BEDTIME ... YOUR GLUCOSE LEVELS WILL STAY MORE CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT & BE LOWER IN THE MORNING ... THUS, YOU WILL FEEL BETTER WHEN WAKING UP. THIS DOESN'T MEAN A MEAL BEFORE BEDTIME, OF COURSE! BEING DIABETIC, NICK'S MORNING GLUCOSE #s HAVE DROPPED FROM THE 160s DOWN TO THE 140s JUST IN THE LAST MONTH BY DOING THIS. HE'S SHOOTING FOR THE 120s NEXT MONTH. GOD BLESS DAWN & NICK

Ms Dawn, Thank you for the information. I don't really eat a meal before bedtime, but I do feel the need to have a little something. I have nuts and soy nuts in the house. I am going to borrow my friend's glucose meter and test to see if there's a difference when I do this. I am not diabetic, but one never knows how much their sugar varies unless they test it, right? Hugs, Cheryl

ABSOLUTELY, MS CHERYL. EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT SO WHAT IS KNOWN GENERALLY MAY NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR BODY. TEST & LET ME KNOW HOW YOUR GLUCOSE #s ARE! GOD BLESS DAWN & NICK

Let's see, By March 1st I want to: 1. lose 10lbs. That will put me at 225 2. work out 5 days a week instead of four increase my cardio to 45 minutes 3. drink 80oz of water 4. eat 60 g 5. keep carbs below 40g

I'm 301 and I would like to be 289 by March 1st. I was going to challenge myself a little more and say 285 but I want to be realistic. I also want to take in more protein and drink more fluids like I should. I'm exercising twice a day four days a week so I have that covered. Oh well...we shall see. Have a great day!!

I only have 2 goals this month 1) to get in exercise at least 5 times a week right now im getting in about 3. 2) to get below 200 lbs I am at 214 right now and get in all my protein and water daily. 276/214/135 Kim
