    A good day, all around.

  • I fit this one too.

    Okay, not the post menopausal — I hadn’t hit that point yet, but I sure can’t lose weight without exercise, and mid section weight is the last to go.

    Welcome To Diabetes In Control – EXERCISE REQUIRED FOR VISCERAL FAT LOSS IN TYPE 2 POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN

    This study examined the effects of aerobic exercise without weight loss, a hypocaloric high monounsaturated fat diet (HMF) and diet exercise (D E) on total abdominal and visceral fat loss in obese postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes.

    After I went to the dentist I had to eat something chewy and the Diet Gourmet food wasn’t. So I tossed it. I did do pretty well, instead of ordering the full dinner with sides from El Chico, I got the Chicken Chimichunga, cheese sauce, hot chips and cold hot sauce. Skipping rice and or bean calories.

    So much better choice that in the past. I was good to go on the blood sugar 2 hours after (even a tad low), but was at 235 4 hours after. That’s definately a extended bolus meal.

  • Sleep Big Business?

    Sleep for Sale

    Here’s the deal, if you are having trouble sleeping, anything that can help is a good thing. The question is can it help and the only way to find out is to try it.

  • Love the dentist

    Can’t really call him new.

    He snuck up on me today which is actually the right thing to do. He replaced the temporary filling.

    I have full confidence now which is a good thing.

  • CDE Visit

    Saw my CDE today and will see her before the trip to Monte Carlo so I warned her.

    We dropped my evening bolus since i’m consistantly correcting 180s. I may need to drop it further but I’m into small corrections.

    Best news…lost 3 pounds and blood pressure was 116/74

    I’m going to put entries both here and on iShape. It will be good if the host gets behind.

  • Free Minimac

  • Man, you got to watch them…

    Medco again.

    I asked my contact lens doctor to write a 90 script for Restasis and fax it to Medco. He wrote the script for a 30 day script, and they shipped it and charged me for a 90 day.

    Sometime the week before last, I called and was told that they would credit my account for the difference between a copay for 30 day. Got my credit card bill today, credit wasn’t on there. Checked the Medco site, credit wasn’t there either. So I called. The person on the phone claimed the credit happened today. Of course, it happened when I talked to him, but that doesn’t really matter as long as I get the credit. Of course, I did get charged interest ….
