Some times it is hard to post daily.  A daily lurk is just fine too! 

Hey Tess,

I may update once a week. I am doing OK. I finally got my RH under control. I gave up most starches and most fruits. Also low fat dairy products and just milk.  As a result - I can eat when I want to - and no longer have low BS.   I can even exercise and maintain normal BS. 

I eat nuts, meats, cheese and veggies. My protein drinks need to have fat 4-5 gr for every 20-30 gr of proteins (no fat or very low fat protein shakes may cause low BS in my body). A small price to pay not to have low BS.  I can sleep all night and function with no food for 10-14 hrs if needed. I get hungry so I didn't try any longer, but I m sure - if I had to - I could. 

I would like to lose 10-15 lbs, but it is low priority. I may - or may not do that. I know that I would like to get fit, and do yoga regularly. That is my goal this year.

Glad to see your smiling face. Have fun.

 

Hi Hala:

 

I found that if I post daily, I am better committed to me personally.  I definitely needed the break that I took at the end of the Fall though.  I look forward to hearing from you weekly.  Good news about your blood sugar too!

You know Hala, I agree with you about drinking milk and the carbs in it. Iv'e even noticed that milk is a trigger food for me it makes me crave more sugar and carbs.

Hi Edie:

 

It is good to be back.  I have missed everybody and the daily posting too!

Good evening BOTTs!

Well it's a new year and I am 10 pounds heavier than last year, so its a good time to kick my butt into gear.  I have my 30th high school Class Reunion in June and I want to be back to my 175 pounds. 

 

So my weight this morning was 219 pounds and my goal is 175 pounds (44 pounds) to lose and mange.

Hi Wanda:

 

I wanted to tell you that I enjoyed my trip to the Big Apple in July.  I actually lost weight from all the walking but I did enjoy the food and entertainment.  My longest walk was through Central Park to the Natural Museum of Science.  I believe we started out in front of Ann Taylor's Store and walked across.  I clocked 22,000 steps that day.  It was a great trip that everybody needs to go on at least once.
