What’s for lunch?
What’s for lunch? I kinda had a cheat day today. Turkey sammich with bacon/avocado/tomato, and half an apple with some tahini mixed with a bit of honey to dip it in, carrot sticks. It’s a cheat because of the honey and bread (not the best things for me to eat). I didn’t eat all that spread, I just wanted the dish to dip into and not get it on my plate. Paper plate for G Hartman #sorrynotsorry

Oh, and I ate two carrot sticks while prepping, before they even made it to the plate 😛
Paper plates are awesome.
Right? How are you, lady?
Good. At the doc right now to meet with the diabetes specialist. Wooot
Oh, goodie 😛 How’d it go?
Whew. Just got home. I loved the lady so much. She didn’t make me feel guilty, showed me how to use the glucometer, gave me tips about food and told me to eat every 2 hours (crazy!). I feel so full. I’m bad at eating often enough. Got a bunch of whole grain stuff with fiber, and veggies and lean meat. She told me it’s important to allow for cheat days to keep me from binges. So if I feel like having cake, have it. If I feel like pasta, eat it. Then just note my blood sugar as a result and get back on track. She hugged me and told me congratulations. She said this will be a really awesome life change and that she doesn’t think it’ll be too hard for me.
And she assigned Matthew to take walks with me every evening. She said evening walks are the most effective. After dinner.

I’m glad you guys got it figured out
Me too. I was so scared but there’s plenty of things I can eat that I like. I still don’t like the poking. Lol 🙂
Sigh
Poking’s No fun! But the glucometers these days are pretty painless, compared to ages ago. The Accu-Chek is my fave. Smallest needle.
I have the one touch ultra. The needle strength is adjustable, which I like. It’s not painful, just annoying. Lol
Yay! Yes, it is annoying, at first
You will get used to it
